Are you using the ZM35C for these?
Thank you very much Gary.. yes the zm 35 2.8.. like it very much. only now I have sold it. finance for my 35 FLE. but I keep my eyes open. and when I find cheap . I will buy again.
In fact I just bought a 35/2.8 C to complement my 35/1.4 distagon
Too funny Edward. I almost did the same thing last week! ZM35C would make a nice addition to the kit. And I agree with your comment about Rene's new photo subject (legs).
I found this statue of King George V on my travels, what an amazing, moody statue! it's sat in front of 'his' maternity hospital, very strange creative choice! Unfortunately he is way too small at this distance at 28mm, I have to go back and get much closer/longer. Lots of vignette added to try and bring him out a bit.
My 35 Lux FLE is in the shop and I picked up a Zeiss 35 2.8 Biogon and I like it. I was going to sell it when the Lux came back but I think i might hang on to it.
Great stuff one and all.. Really enjoying the work as of late.
Gary, I'm very pleasantly surprised with the c biogon. It's super sharp and very close in rendering and performance to the distagon. I bought it because it's tiny, light and cheap, for the time I don't want to carry the distagon.
Edward, gorgeous shots from Lebanon.
Joakim: superb cherry blossums
Cogee: love the earlier architecture, and your BW above. Great look.
Werner, love the M8 shot. There's one at RFF now for only a grand.
Rene, love the smoking, walking lady
These taken last night at a famous nearby high prairie which once hosted over 10k indigenous people each spring for camus root harvest, was stolen by the army, homesteaded by Scandinavians, and now most of the land bought up by billionaires, and run by managers.
