Hi all,
I've just bought a 2/35 ZF.2 and here are some of my first shots (all @ f/2 - nikon D700)







Cheers,
Daniele

Hey Daniele,

That tree shot is really interesting, because on the right where the foreground branch transitions to a distant background, there is no real 3D feeling, it just feels a bit flat. However in the centre, where the sharp foreground branches transition into a branch receding into the background gently, there is much more 3D feeling. I guess this is exactly a display of why Zeiss optics tend to show more 3D than Leica optics, which just snap into and out of focus more. Neat.

Hugo, this is fantastic, your processing is stunning! Were you using Canon or Nikon?

Hugo, a briliant shot, as ever. However, if I may be so bold, the three "white spots" (water puddles?) on the left middle might be better a bit toned down IMHO. They tend to draw my eye away from the scene. Please don't take that as a negative comment, on the contrary.

Hi carstenw,
you're right about the 3D feeling. What I don't understand is why my 2/35 doesn't seem to give this 3D feeling to all the shots I have took so far. Is this has something to do with my PP skills? Or maybe not all subjects can give that Zeiss feeling? Or it could be that the 2/35 has less 3D "capabilities" than the other Zeiss lenses??
Anyway, thank you for your kind words!

Thanks Mast3rChi3f. Regarding the focus you are absolutely correct, but I still love the mood of it

Love your second one.

Marvelous view on the first one, however it feels like the top of the cliffs are slightly oversharpened. You also missed to clone a hotspot(?) in the upper right corner.

Great landscape shots, Mast3rChi3f.

Wonderful composition, mortyb.

I just got 2/35 Distagon T* ZF from another FM member yesterday. First outdoor use today, and all shot in wide open. What a stunning lens!
