very nice series; 1 is spectacular. this was one of the best lenses ive ever used, and it shows. tbh, my zm 35/2.0 biogon is not any better in any observable category.

Splendid presentation. I really like first three photos.

Wow! I didn't expect such a great IQ Shocked
Except the bokeh from #4 it could be made with an ZM Biogon 35/2 indeed.
What a gem!

#1 and #5 for me Smile

Yes, this lens is very good. But the pricetag is also not on the cheap side. Wink

And I agree Klaus, fantastic flare resistance Very Happy

Expensive if you compare to old SLR lenses Wink

Amazing series!! How did I miss it?
I am jealous, really.

#1 is sooo perfect!

Is this Click here to see on Ebay a newer version of the same lens?
The mount seems to be Nikon RF. Are they optically the same?
