Bob, could you please add information about focal length and aperture? Thanks in advance
ManuelManuel - I added FL based on memory. The last was definitely taken in Macro mode but I don't exactly remember if it was 1:4, 1:7 or somewhere in between.
Thanks Bob... have lens on the desk and can't use it, is... depressing

I received my Minolta MD 35-70/3.5 today! The lens is mint and performs flawlessly. Lot's of testing to do and getting used to the lens. This is my first MF zoom on the A7r. Here's the first few random test shots. Bob, could you please add information about focal length and aperture? Thanks in advance

Mike; as you may have noticed I like the 24-85 Contax N very much. It is probably the best zoom I have used also because of the very usefull range it has. Where does it say the MTF is not so good? Corners even at 24 are good enough for me. But I am not much of an official tester
BTW What I have heard the 70-200 is a better zoom then the 70-300. I like it a lot.
I use the C/Y 100-300 which is really supurb.
Werner thank you! This is gothic allright although inside the cathedral it is quiet sober. The outside is worked on for ever uptill now. It is really wonderfull. Amiens is also a place to go; beautifull cathedral. I will take some shots there again soon.
Wonderful those three gracious gothic ladys!
Chris; thank you
Ronny; Thank you
Hi Peter, the resemblance is there and it sure does have the same colour and structure. It must be from around here. The carvers are still working on it. (again)
Here's a vertical detail from another side.

Two more with the A7 and the Zuiko 24mm f2.8. Probably both at f11.
I am not sure I like the colors of these Zuikos but I do like the size and the sharpness!!

Ronny; I often check your Flickr posts and always admire images with Sonnar ZM 50/1.5 Hope you can post more with it on this forum.
Looking. Back. At China

asekcsc5,
I have the OM24 f2.8, as well.
Same observations...great sharpness, good color on closeups in the woods, good color on flash photos, weaker color and contrast in daylight (suspect coatings not up to par), and very small/light.
I did a custom recipe in Color Efex 4 (brilliance/warmth, color contrast range, foliage, polarization, vignette lens) that helps the contrast and color. I also have some favorites in Topaz Clarity (Color and Contrast Boost III or Brick Building) that work pretty well, too.
Here are some post-processed images from London.
I ran your tree shot through my CE4 recipe as a test and it looks pretty good.
I use layer blending to limit to midtones on photos with lots of sky or dark details.

Two more from London with OM24mm f2.8.
One of the Royal Court photos I messed up the highlight blend a bit... (hard to tell with my laptop - working next to my wife on the couch).

And she is still smiling after all these months
Thank you
Great capture Charles! Recently someone posted a question on FM about 70-90mm alt portrait lens for Sony A7/x. Your above shot, along with many others with Lux-M 75 is a perfect recommendation. Mandler's Lux 75 presents great balance of character, size, weight that makes the lens timeless.

Those are really nice. Is that the macro version of the 35-70?

Peire: You make me be interested in those Minolta lenses
Rokkors are rock solid like Z series Zeisses,have great colour rendition,sharpness and microcontrast stopped down.Pure joy to use.They are not expensive either and some of them sell now for less than year ago (MC Rokkor PG 50/1.4,MD Rokkor 50/1.4,MC Rokkor PF 85/1.7,MC Rokkor 135/2.8,MC/MD Rokkor 200/4,MC/MD Rokkor 28/2,MC Rokor HH 35/1.8),so it's a good time to acquire a couple of them.
