I'd wish to have more time to go out.

I took these pics when testing the Canon FD 35 TS f2.8 lens

Camera: 5DMkII, LightRoom - little bit more PP than usual.

I think that Tessar 2.8/45 'ist nicht normal' lens Wink

Great samples Stan, are you using liveview for the Tessar 45 on the 5DII?
I ask because my copy of the lens does not clear the mirror at infinity.

Hi Orio

I do and I do not - depends on circumstances

I didn't have a problem with the lens even with unshaved mirror - (my copy must be something different then)

Now (my mirror is shaved), I can use the lens with absolutely free..

Orio, I would say - fit the lens on your 5DMkII after you switch the LiveView on
and dismount the lens after shooting .. I think you'll be OK.

or ...ehm .. Cool - shave the mirror on your cam

That is surely ok, this is how I am using the lens the rare times I mount it on the 5DII... for sample purposes only, because for shooting I mount it on the 5D (shaved).

Smile that's out of question, I need to keep the 5DII pristine, because I will probably sell it to finance my taxes.

Gorgeous! Shocked Your output of great images is mind-boggling. These
are no exception. You can "make gold out of dirt" as far your talent in
photography. Even an "ordinary" scene seems to come alive when you
make an image.
