Oh my, Luka! My wallet just jumped out of my pants and hid behind the corner. Those shots look fantastic. My favorites are the two tile roof buildings and the one after that. As Charles has proven in the past, I LOVE how this lens renders. I need a new job

LUka- You would be a great rep for leica.
Now I am thinking of how long it will take until I can afford this lens
Excellent shots,
Kyle

Ron & Ryan, nice shots from today .
Luka, somehow I kind of knew this would happen.. that you might not like it before getting one but you will warm up to it after shooting with it. Congrats and extra ++ for the duck, bench and horses. Keep posting!
I'm probably #10 on the wait list at most dealers. ZERO stock

Thanks guys! It's really a great lens. My personal favorite is the green wooden building - it's really hard to believe that was shot at f/1.4.
Ryan, you don't need to sell your kidney(s), there are less radical ways of getting the money for the lens:
-prostitution
-dealing drugs
-robbing camera stores
to mention a few

OML (ohmyluka)! Gorgeous shots - are you sure it's the lux which is the artist? I think it's you my friend, who is the artist! Really nice initial pics. I think i will use any means necessary to extend the loan of the Lux I have at the moment (lol). More pics when you have time!
Cheers

Luka more beautiful shots with the 50Lux, like #4 best. If you think the lens is too heavy, send it my way, I'll offer to buy it from you
Charles, Ryan & Luka, apologies if you have seen this post, you know what I mean

Joe, great street shot! The different forums provide so much information
Sitting in the traffic tonight, watching the sky turn unusual colours, I was wishing I was down by the beach taking some shots with the sky continuously changing. With the 50 Lux Asph.

Great shot Charles!
I managed a few more shots with the borrowed 50 lux. the ability to shoot at 1/2 the ISO (was going upwards of 640, mostly at 800 and 1000) that i would normally have to use for an f2 lens was really refreshing and great for the IQ.

Thanks Charles & Luka
Due to you guys, I think I have 50Lux ASPH fever now.
Charles, nice capture of the cloud colors.
KL, more magic with the 50Lux. Very nicely composed set.
Ryan, loving that #1 street shot and #3.

Thanks guys. Joe, I hear you on that 50 fever. I just got the 35 and Luka has to break out the 50 Lux shots. I will say, the 35 Lux and from what I have seen the 50 Lux are truly amazing lenses. The sharpness wide open rivals good Nikon/Canon lenses stopped down to f/5.6. Sure, the lack of AA filter helps, but these lenses are just truly amazing. I am blown away by the 35.

Ryan, the 35 Lux ASPH is very sharp at all apertures, including wide open. It's sharper than any other 35 I've ever tried at comparable apertures. It has tons of other good qualities, but they are all within reasonable limites.
The 50 Lux ASPH on the other hand.. well, I'm starting to understand now that when Carsten et al are calling it "magical", that they mean it literally. There's some serious dark magic Harry Potter shit going on there. That lens violates the laws of physics. It's impossibly sharp at f/1.4.
