Thank you, Ronny.
And thank you all for keep post wonderful images to keep this legacy thread in Alt Forum going.
I absolutely love ZF glass. They are still special to my eyes, they bridged transition between classic manual lens and modern glass which I haven't seen much I like as much. Most of them have character of old Contax Zeiss with modern coating to handle color and flare better. Look the size of classic Planar 50 and 85, they are so lovely. I bet they will be more sought after later than Milvus version for the character, build and size. Sharpness is/will be cheap
Today I briefly tested Distagon 35/1.4 ZE,that arrived yesterday.Excellent lens.No real issues to speak of,save,maybe a bit too high level of LoCa wide open.
Your macro and mushroom shots make it really hard to think about selling my 100ZF f2, which I did intent on doing for some months now.
It seems with the peaking function of the d850 or the new Z series it will be a joy to use again, which was not that easy using live view on my d800.
But the prices for acquiring these cameras are quite high and I needed to collect some money by selling some of my stuff.
As I said - the quality of your pictures make these decisions even harder!

And by the way, fantastic shots from Iceland, great landscapes and now wonderful perspective of the concerthall, the "Harpa",
drenched in gorgeous light.

Thanks! That was last night before fly back and was one of only two day with sun out of 16 days over there, however I just love the mood Iceland presented to me.
