ps. The 85mm/1.4 AiS covers the GFX sensor very well. No crop or vignette correction applied.



Sometimes it just falls in your lap. That's a beauty.

I guess so

Never used it much because of slow f/5.6, but with great high ISO capability of newer bodies, may get it out now.

Yup. It’s rare. Less than 2k made for both K and AI with ED.
I use it lately because with these new sensors, 5.6 is fast enough

NMFAS at its best, and all with the "Rafael's lens condition" standard = super mint like new.

I am humble, for my collection I just need one 15/5.6 QDC, that "horrible paper weight" that Chuong and Rafael insist in not selling to me

Nah, just been thinking about something longer. My longest at the moment is135mm full frame equivalent.

You should have bought that 24/2! You could compete with Rafael.


No, Leighton never. I could never compete with Rafael. At my height I think I had more than him, but nowhere near that quality, nowhere near. I've already bought 2 lenses this week (35mm f2 and 55mm f3.5), I just couldn't bring myself to buy a third. I'm currently on the lookout for an 8.5cm f2. As Colin pointed out, I live in a tiny flat, apart from the money, I haven't got the space. (Still, the 24mm was a bargain because it had some cosmetic blemishes which don't bother me and it was coming from Germany there would be no duty).

Jose - I feel for you. Rafael and Samy have an 8.5cm f2 that they're refusing to sell to me. Some people can be so difficult can't they?

Folks - what Rafael failed to mention when posting his roof repair images is that he is also reinforcing the house foundations to cater for his lens collection. Actually that lot should be stored in a strong room.

I knew it was going to be an incredible list, especially given your standards!

I immediately put your list into a sheet next to mine to see what ones I didn't have, obviously quite a number but I haven't had time to have my full fun yet in reviewing it all, I will be looking up gaps.

I have some I would probably sell based on my approach, which was more to get the better performers rather than every lens. I would buy a 1.4 to 3.5 over a 4- 5.6 figuring that at the higher setting on the faster version there would be little difference. I know that's not always true though.

Anyways, thanks for sharing your fabulous collection, it certainly has inspired me to look back over mine! Here is the updated List, not in same league as Rafael's!

You need to sell me this 400mm George!
You have too many lenses!!!!
