This has become one of my all-time favourite combos... The Contax 35-70/3.4 + 5D2:

(Taken with a 1D3 + Sigma 50/1.4, another nice combo. )

That is one sexy collection. I might have to put my Zeiss collection in one frame as well. I especially like the one in the middle of the front row :-)

Yes, she got to sit right in the middle right in front of the Queen (21/2.8).

Anyway, here's my Rokkor 58/1.2

I'm amazed at how compact it is. I used to have the Canon 50L (also f/1.2) which is much larger and yet this one beats it hands down in every optical way. Why do lens produces make such huge lenses these days?

23A is the model number, BBAR is Tamron's name for multicoating (Broad Band Anti-reflection). That second shot is great!

One day I'll have one of these. For now I'm set with my funky 55/1.2, I'll post it here soon.

Hi ulrik, I haven't had it long enough to do more than take a few test shots. So far, it looks sharper than the SMC Pentax 50/1.2, and Olympus OM 55/1.2 that I've previously owned, as well as the Nikkor 50/1.2 AIS that I tried out. Jim

As my M9 is going back to das Vaterland for calibration I thought I should take the opportunity to take a family picture of my cameras and lenses:


http://peltarion.eu/img/cameras.jpg

The camera systems are as follows:
(1 - Compact): Leica X1
(2 - Rangefinder): Leica M9
(3 - DSLRs): Canon 5DII & 7D
(4 - Medium format): Pentax 67

Alt lenses of interest are. The rangefinder lenses next to the M9 (Leica 75 Summicron, Zeiss 35/2 & 25/2.8 Biogons) and the one mounted on the camera (50/1.5 Sonnar). The lens mounted on the 5DII is the Rokkor 58/1.2. . Starting from the middle of the hood of the 70-200/II, the row starting with the 21 Distagon are Zeiss primes (21/35/50/85/100). In front of the 21 Distagon and next to the Tokina 11-16 is another favorite of mine, the Zeiss 35/1.4, adapted from Rollei mount.

The Pentax 67 lens is a 90/2.8.

Not pictured is an old Canon 350D + 18-55 kit lens which were used to take the picture.
