I like #4,#5,#6...number 5 because it has something special about it...a classical movie "feel" to it.Number 4 because I think the tones are just right.Number 6 because there is no harsh light on your wife's face...it seems like a very nice lens.

Seems indeed a very good and sharp lens, was this shoots wide open?
I like the colour version the most (#2). If I must choose a B&W version, it should be #3, the others have too much PP for my taste!
And what a lovely wife/model you have but you already know it, you heard that 1000 times Very Happy ....

Thank you! I have classical move feeling too, lovely lens for sure. I shoot wide open only for samples , other ways I always shoot stopped down if light allow it like here F8. With wide open easy to makes mistake , sharp nose but , unsharp eyes etc. Once a forum member father he was all his life pro movie maker said F8 if possible, I did start to follow his advice and I got much success after.

That is a great lens Attila and it shows! I have the same but has a "II" added on the barrel and it is f1.9 (have you rounded up?), so I guess mine is Version II. Great colors and sharpness indeed, but I shoot only flowers not such a wonderful model as your wife Christina!

Great portraits.

On my portraits, I use to have -.3 ev , -.7 or turn completely to manual to avoid washing out high lights. My boy has darker face than my girl, and needs +.3 instead, so it ended more PP for him Laughing

I just bought it off ebay $200 was it good enough?

Now I need to know which adapter do I use for this in order to mount it with my NEX 6 body.

One S-C mount
C-E mount. OMG :/ Wonder how would it look with all that

I don't see any S-C adapter the one on ebay is 200 bucks. Is it fair priced? Sad

certainly not, be patient it will come for less than 50 USD and may come with lens , described by seller a Kodak S lens as C mount, if lens not sought after probably will cheap also.
