You have the E55 version or the E 60 version of the 50 Lux? It looks to me like the E55 version, from the bokeh. I just picked up the E55 version and I am looking forward to taking it for a spin. Thanks for the inspiration.
After so much playing with our high end Voigtlanders, Sony GMs, Otus (I wish) and the like, once in a while I like to remind myself just how good some lesser lenses really are. I paid just over $100 for a Canon FD 50/1.4 S.S.C. a while back. It's pretty sharp stopped down but I needed to remind myself that this is a perfectly good lens to use wide open as well. So, here's some kitchen 'art' . . .
A few shots from Universal Hollywood CityWalk before dark set in.
Roses at Huntington Gardens, Pasadena, CA.
My friend, Jeff, using his personal sawmill to cut logs on his property in the Cispus Valley, Washington, as well as a couple other shots from the area.
Loxia 21, Samyang 85/1.4, 12-24/4G, Loxia 35, LR Classic CC.
That pretty well clears the recent shoots out of the way!
My next images will be posted from Washington -- making my return trip right away. We've got internet at the house now and a travel laptop and external hard drive. We'll see if there are any fall colors left in Aberdeen after a series of powerful storms a few weeks ago.
I couldn't pass up the outfit. :)
Samyang 85/1.4 with helicoid focusing adapter @ f/2.8
^^^ I blame it on my photography abandonment summer period. Heck, all my Sony batteries were totally discharged
Speaking of trains, if you ever in a mood to take a break from Oregon/US sceneries and visit the 'great white Canadian north' for a few days, book seats for your family on direct Portland-Vancouver choo-choo and we'll be happy to have you in BC.
Don't get discouraged by the 9-10 hours trip. It's still faster than battling through i5, especially around Seattle and border crossing.
Great work from Kai, Dougo, Jako, Bob, Jim!!
Ronny, every time I see one of your shots from this set, I think: "this has to be one of my all-time favorite Olsson shots!"
