Here are some images from my recent trips, shot with a Zeiss Ikon and Velvia 50. End of April is the best time for visiting the Alentejo, a very rural part of this country, with so beautiful colors at this time of the year.
#1 Sonnar 50mm
#2 Biogon 35
#3 Biogon 25 (I need a viewfinder for this lens)
#4 A toxic lake near the spanish border, filled with sulfuric acid from old copper mines, the water is really red! Sad story.
Stiched from two frames, shot with the Biogon 25

The others look like they fell prey to Velvia's saturated colors, but are
STILL very good looking images. Thank you very much for sharing!

Thanks Larry, it's my favourite too, the most perfect subject for velvia in this series. Unfortunatley I've found two Provia 100F rolls too late that day, sitting in a hidden edge of my backpack. The best light was almost gone.
Here are the Provia 100F images:
unfortunately slightly overexposed:

Very nice photos, Sandy!
I'm not much of a fan of Velvia, due to excessive (for my taste) colour saturation, I prefer Provia, but your Velvia photos look great.
What do you think of the Biogon 25?
I am contemplating buying one, I found one at discount price, new.
I read reports it's the sharpest rangefinder lens today... does this fit with your experience with the lens?

I like it very much Orio. And I think that I don't need anything wider for my rangefinder. I just need a dedicated viewfinder...
It's sharp, but not only sharp, it's the resolution, the microcontrast. Every area of the image is filled with informations.
I will send you some images, have shot one roll "test images" with Spur Agfa Copex Rapid, developed in Spur Nanospeed Pro.
So yes, I would highly recommend this lens The only downside, my the barrel seems to loosen/wobble from time to time. I have to send it back to Zeiss for a replacement or repair. No more Contax quality I think...

AMAZING images Sandy! #2 with the blue flowers reflecting the sky, really does it for me because of that but also the others are very impressive. (The colors do look a bit oversaturated for me, but I guess this is how that film renders colors. Did you underexpose on purpose? That could be the - wanted? - reason). The Biogon 25mm is a very well know excellent performer (>400lpm if I remember correctly), too bad to hear about these mechanical problems.

Thanks Klaus,
yes it's the Velvia 50. I did expose by +1/3, but with the measure patterns priority aimed to the sky (interesting feature. I was so attracted by the massive clouds, wanted to avoid blown out details in the sky. I thinks that's why the colors in the shade are very strong and contrasty.
And then, it's still a big difference seeing the slide on the light table and then scanned, I don't know... Can't solve this problem until Rolf will send me his amazing Coolscan

Thank you
It's Zeiss's new 35mm ragefinder, not sure how they call it, Zeiss Ikon ZI/ZM. Even the manual only notes "Zeiss Ikon"

Thanks friends!
Lazzaros,
It's a great location, I was blown away when I arrived at the Mina. I just wanted to scout it for a later shooting.
Exactly, that was the first thing that came to my mind, what a place for a fashion shooting/production!
I still have some K25, K64 and fancy cross film in my fridge, I will keep it for this place, I only need to find a willing model!
Let me know if ýou have some ideas
Abraço, Sandy

Beautiful countryside, beautiful photos. Yes, it is sad that copper mining can be so toxic, but your photos remind us of what is possible now. There is a place in Tennessee called Copper Hill that always will look like a nuclear weapon aftermath because the fumes from the smelting plant over generations destroyed the life-carrying capacity of the surrounding land. I consider it a memorial to the way things used to be here ...
