Really Stellisee, not Stillesee? Gorgeous shots!
Hehe ... the lake is quite "still" (peaceful) but it's called Stellisee nonetheless.
Thanks guys for the nice comments. I usually only go here when I research about alternative lens gear, but I try to get here more often. There are just so many places to go on the Internet and so little time.
Definitely go and get this lens. I see it on Ebay then and now and the price is ridiculous for what you get here. Of course as a landscape photographer I can live with the manual focusing and aperture without problems.
This one is from a lovely gorge in the Slovenian National Park of Triglav. The gorge is called Mostnica and always a place I love to go to in fall.

I just tried to load a few images and got a show-stopping message that the images exceed 350Kb. So I checked the file size of some images on this page (like those of teh_rebel), and several are *much* larger - what gives, and is there a workaround? To save me redoing these images as smaller jpgs.
Lovely cool shot, mM, not too much water blur, leaving plenty of sense of movement. Well controlled 'deep' saturation in low light is a (another) virtue of this lens.
surf monkey, you shots above look a lot like film, but with better shadows - very nice. All the northern hemisphere shots are looking colder these days...brr.
I looove my C/y 35-70 but I am making the switch to nikon. That being said, has anyone tried the leitax conversion of the 35-70 to nikon F mount? I hate to see my lens go but I think I am going to have to sell it.

I did the conversion myself. Follow the directions he has online. Not bad at all.
