Just processed these RAW files down to jpegs with little or no adjustment made: see what you think... I'm very happy with colour and sharpness.

Very nice, Mamiya lenses are excellent. I just wish there were adapters to use the 35mm Mamiyas on NEX as I have several mint ones Sad

Thanks Ian, do you mean to say the Nex is under-resourced adapter-wise? I take it that these immaculate MAmiya lenses - which aren't in your sig - are other than M42 mount?

Thank you kind sir but I wonder if instead of "class" you meant to say "grass"? Wink

Really beautiful rendering by the lens! My favourite pictures are #2 and #4

One of a kind, this photo #4.

I take that the photos are taken with the 85/1.9 and not the 85/2.8, right?

I need to correct my description that it is the 80mm lens, but you're right the 1.9 version.

That scene in #4 was just waving at me across this field of wheat, I could see the much darker rogue wild oats and I knew what I wanted to capture. I was lucky that I could do it from the edge of the field without wading into the crop. Light good, opportunity good, equipment good: you nice people seem to think that the result is good.

Yes, I have a 2.8/28 in the NC1000S mount and several E Series in the later mount for the ZE and ZM cameras. The former there is no adapter for, the latter are unusable as the aperture is fully electronic.

Neither camera costs a lot. I've had 65 plus -year old long term hobby photographers be very snooty about Mamiya cameras. Let 'em wax on about Leicas and WWII aerial cameras, I care not hahaha!

The 80/1.9 is an interesting lens and is quite significantly affected by CA wide open, more so then most of the other Mamiya lenses.
