Frezeiss, nice composition.
Noodlz, I like the first portrait.
Picture this, great shots as usual.
Jim, nice shots. I like the feel of that one of the glass bowls.
Bob, I like the second photo.

Tariq, amazing detail.
frezeis, very dramatic good weather.
Noodlz, outstandingly beautiful portraits, very tasteful processing.
Picture This!, once again, great scene, great atmosphere.
Bob, superb use of wideangle, reminds me to use ZF18 again.
Jim, those are to good for outtakes. The first one is very powerful and moving.
Jochen, a true classic. Call it a postcard.

The thing that becomes most apparent in all the pictures in this thread is that for all the qualities of any Zeiss lens you can see the photographer above everything else. I will never stop being amazed.
Amazing, isn't it?

Look at the pictures on this page and look at how happy and broke Smridevan is.
It's quite a paradox indeed! Do we always have to choose between happiness and money?

Grenache and Smridevan, thank you!
frezeiss, a beautiful example for a magical landscape shot wide open
Eversince I parted from my beloved brick, an old Volvo 240, I was getting sentimental from time to time, that I did not stage it photographically. So I decided to portrait my new car and drove through the streets of Cologne in search for a good location. I found one and had to cross some lawns and routes for walking slightly unallowed to get there and some folks were looking real leery, but me and my model had a happy session there. All for the art!

Family became complete today:
My first 35/2 picture, a bored co-worker:
I plan on going out early tomorrow to put the lenses(35/2 and 100/2) to test. It's too bad my EG-S isn't here yet either.

thanks everyone.
Jochenb, lovely shot. Human element shows a sense of scale.
oldmiller, great light on that sax
frezeiss, I'm sure you'll immensely enjoy the 21. Its a stellar lens.

So many great pictures in the last few pages! Congrats to Picture This!, Luka, oldmiller, and special congrats to Jim!
I'm kind of bummed, having only the ZE 21 left (still have some Contax), but sure appreciate your work!

Put the 35/2 and 100/2 threw their paces today. Mostly test shots.
Well, now that I've got the obligatory duck shots out of the way!
35/2
35-70 from a year+ ago same bush same spot:
35/2 Couldn't get it to flare, small CA
35/2 Looks great up-close.
35/2 chopped the feet, oops. Great color and depth
I think I'll enjoy these two lenses.

Plastic, your last duck shot seems to miss focus a tiny bit. Lovely rendering by the 35 though, as always..

I hate scrambling over other beautiful pictures to mention just one but Gee Z ...#1 is stunning.
And as a matter of self indulgence (after all who else reads them) but on the suggestions here I've started a blog.
And you know in the forums when someone starts a thread and in the title it says just some quick photos or just some test photos or I'm a nubie as a way to hide the crap thats about to appear ...
Well instead I'm giving my own blog the rating of 'what else would you expect?

This and the D4 announcements at the same time ...Oh does it get any better

Picture This, philber, joakim and Gunzorro, thank you.
plasticmotif, congratulations on the family.
fracas, I favor the first on with the stronger contrast. This is not an easy scene to exposure, you've done great here.
Toothwalker, I agree with Jim, excellent tones in no. 2.
Jim, the first one is a story, very nice mood in that light.
Lieutenant Z, no. 1, master of the beast, great shot.
frezeiss, almost black & white, great choice!
Picture This!, great exposure! I believe this is my favourite out of your last three.
Tony, bookmarked! Looks great, but it's too early in the morning now, I will enjoy reading in the evening.

Oldmiller, thanks! love your second shot most, is it a commercial?
Thank you! No, it's not a commercial, but indeed I wanted the pictures to look as if they were from one, hence the strange toning and the heavy contrasts.

Here's two from my 50MP ZE. My first Zeiss!
After the first day out with this lens, I was impressed with how many of my shots were in focus, compared to my last 50mm using AF. I'm hooked.
