George- I really miss the 18mm f4. It's one of the lenses I shouldn't have sold. I was using it on Sony and it had exactly that look, contrasty and saturated.

Ben so that you don't feel so bad here is a photo of mine.

s-l1600 2 by Rafael Batlle, on Flickr


Rafael - "So I don't feel so bad"?? I lament the loss of my 18mm and you post pics of two immaculate, pristine, absolutely impeccable18mms, with original lens caps, hoods and even the box.....what? to comfort me?? Yeah George and Samy, salt and lots of it. If I weren't already buying a 35mm LTM I'd be bidding on an 18mm as we speak.

Ben


Just trying to get you to commit the deed.





Rafael - I made a low offer on a Nikon S 35mm f2.5 rangefinder lens. The adapter is tiny for those on a Z7. It's in wonderful condition, not the pristine perfection of your lenses of course, but pretty good. Anyway, I made the offer last week thinking it was hopeless and I'd be outbid in a second but I woke up today and here I am, 300 euros poorer. So I'm probably not going to 'commit any more deeds' for a while. Now I have to buy the adapter.

Colin- is that how everyone is in London now, no masks, no social distancing? I can't go to Manchester without tests and a 14 day quarantine yet in London everyone's walking around like nothing is happening? The girl In the 5th photo has very prominent veins in her legs - is that an IR effect?

Ben - that is one of the lenses that will get you hooked! Be careful, it is a slippery slope after that one!
