Contax Vario Sonnar 35-135 MMJ

[F16SUNSHINE]

We have had some discussion about Contax Vario Sonnar lenses in another thread.
I'm At home for this last couple weeks nursing a foul spine.
Tonight I noticed that one of our trees had bloom (as you can see we have clouds and rain again).
Here is a quick pick and crop from the f3.5-4.5 35-135 zoomed @ 135 and shot open (4.5).
This is the best zoom from Contax if you asked me. I actually have sold one copy and passed this one to Michelle.
It is too heavy for me in most situations. Fantastic performance however that there is no competition from at least not from any zooms.
I converted these using Aperture 2. I hope to get better conversions let the jury (you) be that judge.
Please let me know what you think.
