I've been enjoying film for a while now, but it's time to get back to digital, and the true images! At least they look more true. These are with the 35/2 on D700 from a little walk this afternoon (it's 9 pm here now).
And one with Tri-X, because the Distagon does what it does even on film...
Martin, about time you come back to the real forum! Like the first two, especially the 2nd. Not a fan of the film shot to be honest. Looks way too over proccessed or something.
Makten, excellent usage of perspective AND 35ZE rendering style on all of the 3 shots, but specially on #2
Joakim, sure we can see your 10pixel wide deer
Sami, nice still life
ViscaB, nice panorama

Few from my "Enter darkness"-series, Kortejärvi 21 - Carl Zeiss Planar T* 1.4/50 @ f4, 15s
Lempäälä by night 03 - Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 35 @ f/3.2, 87s, ISO 100
Philippe, even others won't admit it but there is something very appealing on Planar when shoot on small apertures like you do, this dying flower is almost "touchable" on screen, nicely shoot (and surprisingly soft like being ISO 100, f/13, 1/200s = full power sunlight)
Luka, liked your cannons but I don't understand - I get much more ugly sharp edged bokeh highlights on similar conditions with 100ZE. Your bokeh highlights are very round and soft, do you do selective sharpening to this kind of photos? On some other thread you said Rokkor 58/1.2 needs it, but do you also do it for 100ZE?
Philippe: Thanks You can see the EXIF on the top of the image. For more details: Full EXIF
Hugo: Awesome shots! The last one is my favorite.
Samuli: Thanks. Yes, on occasion but not in this case. The reason is simple, the background is white and in effect that region is overexposed. Therefor the LoCA on the highlights gets lost in the background.
Wow, at f/2 it's challenging to shoot that kind of planar subject (image #2). Nice colors/tones (+repeat this for your other post, specially the tones in B&W were interesting). Quite difference to Nikon/Canon stuff what we usually see here.
Luka, OK. I may have my bad memories from cases where background was closer to focus plane, where bokeh gets uglier and maybe also the bokeh highlight "balls" get sharper edged.

Vähä-Kausjärvi 01 - Carl Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 2/50 @ f/5.6, HDR, ISO 100
I have been lurking in this site for a bout two months, i've read all pages of "your best Nikon shot" , "ZE/ZF/ZM Images (Official Thread!)" and guess what happened? I've ended with two Zeiss glass ZF 50MP and 21 2.8 Distagon. I'm still trying to learn these two lenses though. By the way my name is Uzay and i'm from Turkey and now i'll post my image here if i can do I hope you like it but i still try to find out how you pop the images, is there a special way to do it, it seems mine are not like yours.
At least they look more true. These are with the 35/2 on D700 from a little walk this afternoon (it's 9 pm here now).
