cavewalker, for some reason I find that shot humerous. What's the native mount?

Not so glamour, but had to kill some time in hotel while in business trip.

My most recent addition to my Zeiss "family" from left to right Sonnars T* 2.8/135, 3.5/100 and 2.8/85 and Planar T* 1.7/50 - Shoot in hotel room table with Panasonic LX-3, which has decent bokeh (the small amount there is available)

Otherwise lenses seem pretty normal Zeiss lenses but Sonnar at f/4 the aperture has wierd shape, almost "ninja-star":

My newest acquisition: OM Zuiko 50 f/3.5 macro. Great little lens. I really like the Zuikos...I might try and pick up a 50 f/1.8 for a few bucks.

I'll take a group shot later of all my leica glass I now have 19, 28, 35, 90 and 100 mm R mount lenses. Probably the best "bargain" one was the 28 which I paid 574 euro for delivered, which arrived today in flawless condition aside from some bubbling in the glue holding an element in, we'll see if this affects image quality when I test it later.

You can see the magic twinkling inside it this lens is very small as well.

This lens disease is commonly known as "Schneideritis", as it often is found in Schneider lenses of the 60's and 70's. Should not have any effect on Image Quality, you got a great deal on that lens!

First I'd like to thank everyone here for their valuable input to this forum, and especially Cogitech, his contribution has reignited my passion for photography, it really had become "a job". It is ridiculous that one lens could change my whole outlook, but it did. Again, thanks.
Dave
