Hi Ed.a6000 it makes just about every lens I mount somewhat special.

Not the same as your lens, but I just shot this photo about 30 minutes ago with a Konica Hexanon 52mm, f1.8 and my NEX-5N. I was being a little artsy with the angle, but I really wanted the detail on the side of the lens and a bit of the strap for color. I rushed out just after the rain stopped as I wanted to shoot in the filtered light.
BTW, the subject camera is a Petri FT EE with a 55mm, f1.8 lens - a very heavy camera.

WOW!
Great shots!
I have this lens too and have only used it a couple times. It is the fastest prime i own but my introduction to it was a little disheartening.
Won't go into that.
Anyway the second one i got is the one i've used and after seeing these and the 'favorite garden lens' thread i'm enthused to try it again. |

This is a lens that is far from perfect from a technical point of view but I love it for its character. Especially for B&W photography. I think that this is a lens that will stay with me forever.

Beautiful images, kryss (and others)!
I recently acquired this lens in near new condition. Its a beautiful lens, and very sharp stopped down just a little. I haven't had much time to play with it yet, however I took these images with it, while prepping the lens in pictures for sale. Looking forward to shooting some portraits with it.
