Ok, I missed this thread before: I read a lot of good reviews/comment about this lens, but I didn't see many pics from it.
Amazing character from the lens, and beautiful photos.

Oh, and thanks for making me add yet another 135 to my wish list.

Certainly not a bad lens to have. Aanything: If it helps, this one is 133mm; you probably don't have that yet.

Is there a great difference in character between this 133mm and the 135mm variety?

Don't know because I don't have the 11A. I do know that I love this lens and rate its bokeh abouve the Meyer "Bokeh Monster", which I do have.

I´m not a frequent poster on this forum, but as I see this is a recent thread.. I have the tair 11a and this or next week I will be picking up the tair 11 13,3/2.8 Very Happy I love the appeal of the silver finish old version but I still have to find out what the difference is exactly, I hope it is less bulky...
As far as I know both have 20 aperture blades, when it arrives I´ll put them next to each other for a photo shoot Cool

regards, Margriet

edit: here are some sample pics of the tair 11-a on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/21978338@N06/sets/72157630317931374/

Anti-spam measure, links/images don't show in a first time post. Wink

Look forward to your comparison shots. Smile

I think the comparison shots should go some where else? Taking in account this gallery is supposed to have topics with just pictures from one lens, or not?

Anyway, the seller of the lens decided to save me the 2 x 1 hour trip by train and came by today (what a nice service!) so, I now have the lens here already. It´s the tair 11-2 in m42 mount version. So I now wonder what is the difference between tair 11 and tair 11-2?


Cool maybe someone has all three of them ?

I very much like this picture I took with the 133mm tair, after just one round of using it I can say it is a pleasure to handle and brings smiles to your face Very Happy :
