I didn't see that stork picture until now.

Absolutely great!

ehemm, that was a difficult one to focus I guess. Nice colors, that lens reproduces those very well.

Whoa that stork picture, Peter! That needs to be printed big and set on the wall!

BTW, which camera did you shoot these with? A K-5?

I have researched about these lenses many years, before I found my first one in Japan,
many years ago and many more followed. Of the 20 something still existing, I had
quite a few of them in my hands, not counting the two prototypes I was able to locate.


Klaus,

I had no idea that there were so few of these left. How many were produced?

Someday I will buy a Jupiter-9 in Leica mount and made an RF Coupled adapter for mine.

I have no idea how many were made, but not many are still around it seems.

If you make an adapter, please make sure not to "harm it" Wink

After near 40 years taking pics, it is the best 85 mm lens that I remember have seen.

Is it slow (F/4,5)? No matter to me. The IQ compensate that and anything else.

Never saw one. But it will be my next mission. Cool

Congrats for the lens and the pics.

Regards.
