Yes, I know. There are already lots of shots here showing how good the Meyer 200/4 and 135/2.8 are. But I can't resist. I use mine (15 blade zebras) on a 60D. Not often enough, I'll admit.
Anyway, here are some I felt I'd like to share. Hope you like them, and feel free to c&c.

It's the same on the 60D with the adapter I use. Open, focus, lock exposure, close to pre-set stop, shoot. I don't find it annoying. Well, not anymore.

What I find a bit annoying with this lens is weight and the 360ish focus throw: i like it's rendering so much, though, that I almost bring it in the bag.

Well life is a bit more simple for me in that I don't have any AF lenses but do like the luxury of the camera stopping the lens down for me Wink ......and I've chosen my CZJ Sonnar for 135mm when I go on holiday which will be a bit sharper and hopefully give my shots more chance of pop.
