Congratulations and welcome to the club. Mine also is missing the tripod mount, unfortunately. But, as your photos show, it can be hand held successfully.

hand-hold is really a tough job for me...the seller sent me a tripod mount in the pack, I didn't show it in my pix.

Photography usually still not hand held business if you want to have best quality, a mono-pod at least always best choice for longer focal lengths , if you can't use any of them shoots serials one of the image will may sharp enough.

Although, with the latest and greatest cameras, if you keep the shutter speed high enough relative to your focal length you can get away with it. But for landscape, no way. Tripod (properly anchored) will always give you the best IQ. |

Very nice photos and very interesting lens. I saw this online at major camera retailer recently and considered purchasing it, but I don't have a serious enough Hexanon collection yet to justify it. Congratulations on your acquisition!
One thing I wondered about this lens. If UC stands for ultra compact, does it still apply? Lol. How do you find use? Is focus difficult because of size?

UC=Ultra Compact, Ultra Close and Ultra Coating, but I think this one doesn't apply for the first 2 UC descriptions.
This one, I strongly recommend to shooting with the tripod, I tried to shot without the tripod for those pix you could see on this thread (I don't think focusing is difficult for me, but you really need to change your name to ARMSTRONG......), it's too heavy for me to hold.
I plan to shoot the lotus in the lake besides my apartment in future. My point of view is: good one to shoot the birds and flowers with the tripod, but really nightmare on hand-holding.

It's a good looking sample and those are great shots, no matter the pain you suffered to get them. I am interested to see the flowers. Are you using on APS-C?
I realized today after I received hexanon 35 2.8 that I have 13of them. Maybe it's time to start collecting UC.
