I had the Revuenon 55 1.2 briefly. Very nice lens. Much smaller and lighter than the Rokkor. I agree with Derek, the Rokkor overall was better. Stopped down though, the Rokkor was much better. Wide open it was pretty close, if I remember correctly with the Rokkor a little creamier, while the Revuenon was a tad sharper. The Revuenon also had 9 blades, too.
Here are a few more ZM 50 Planar shots.
GreggThanks Gregg. Yes the Revuenon is actually the same lens, as you probably know already but others may not. I certainly wouldn't be using the Cosina for landscapes, not that strong in the corners/edges however it's quite sharp even wide open in the centre and stronger still stopped down very slightly to f2 or so, it has a nice glow plus it's treatment of specular highlights at night is wonderful. I have to use if more for portraits because I think it should do well.I like to shoot fast lenses WO, so the lenses I own I usually don't stop down--I'll pick up a small cheaper lens if I want to shoot slower. But the Rokkor 58 1.2 is fine WO for an older lens, but at F2 it's just lovely. So creamy, wonderful balance of saturation and sharpness. Especially flattering for people. I haven't shot the Revuenon, but isn't the bokeh pretty busy WO, like my rokkor?
Maybe you missed this post .. this image thread moves so fast !
A7rM and M28 Elmarit v3. With VM-E adjusted for infinity. Shots are at f/2.8 or f/8.
I am really starting to appreciate the A7r with the Kolari modification.
Ronny...I see you're getting some good "testing" in! Looking forward to more of the Hollywood shots. It's a great lens! The C/Y 35 1.4 isn't so bad either!!
Here are a couple shots with the OM 50 1.2 all @1.2

Btw, Charles...now that I'll be getting the mod done, those M28 v3 shots are making me really want one!! Those shots on previous page are superb! The v3 isn't the ASPH, right? It's a Mandler lens right?
