reply to Mike, it was my understanding from Stephen Gandy when I was deciding between the screw mount and the m mount 15 mm Voigt, that the screw mount was smaller and cheaper, however, it does require a very skinny adaptor and it is very difficult to mount filters. joanlvh

Yes, he says pretty much that on one of the pages I linked.

unfortunately, sticking the iris on the back of the lens will degrade image quality compared to an iris in the optical center of the lens...
Here is another from this morning. I spent some time at this bridge with the CV 21/4, Zeiss 28/2.8, and Oly 50/1.8. The shot below is from the Oly OM 50/1.8. I think the combination of the flat light plus the low contrast of the lens produced this effect that reminds me a Kirk Kurokawa painting.
(look Kirk up if you're not familiar with him!)
Guys, thanks for the feedback's & compliments. Its good to be able to shoot and share pictures again.
Sebboh, I think you may be right..I developed from JPEG and use my RAW sharpening settings at Lightroom so that explains the oversharpening.
Peire, as good as the MP on the NEX, I'd prefer the results on my D700, more magical :d
Sometimes, I get an itch to get the Voigtlander 125 APO for the absence of fringing but couldn't talk my self into selling the Zeiss.
Jacob, excellent photos. I like the mood in them. You sure know how to make that skopar sing.
