Wonderful shots. Especially the OOF areas on #1 are fantastic. This must be a heavy monster of a lens. Never saw this one, actually.

Nice shots. I have used the lens briefly on the NEX-7 and D600. Too large and heavy for my liking, especially with MF (one hand holds the camera, another hand supports the lens, a third hand turns the focusing ring... )

You got the focus spot on there, that's no small achievement in itself. Smile

thanks much Konicamera, glad you liked the shots.
Yes, the lens is pretty heavy, but not THAT heavy as Canon's 200mm f/1.8L which is really a MONSTER ! Smile

thanks a lot Woodrim, yes, pretty bulky and heavy Smile but this adds to its NS, "natural stabilization" as I call it Smile

thanks much Bille. Yes, you need the "third hand" for focusing often... but soon I got used to focus with a thumb, and it works ok for me.

I shoot a few shots slightly leaning back and forward, so one or two shots usually get spot-on.
thanks much !
