Kentmere 400 film, developed in Tmax 1-4 for 6 minutes, Yashica Lynx 14E, Yashinon-DX 45/1.4. The Lynx is my replacement for my way-too-light-for-my-tremoring-hands Bessa R and canon 50/1.8. (This Lynx, by the way, is all manual; it does have a dandy built in meter with under/over lights in the viewfinder.)
With really good film, that lens will look even sharper, I believe:

Handheld (125/f5.6 IIRC; many of you know I have tremor issues, which is why I went to a heavy, fixed lens RF):


Handheld (125/5.6 IIRC):


Handheld (250/f8 ):


Handheld (500/f11):


Handheld (125 or 60/5.6 or so)


Tripod:


Handheld (250/f8 maybe):


Handheld (500/f11)


Handheld (125/f5.6 IIRC):


Handheld (60 or 125/f5.6 or thereabouts; this lens compares favorably with my former Canon 50/1.8 and my Super-Takumar 55/2):


Handheld (250/f8 maybe):


Tripod (30 or 15 at f8 or so):

Wow, the Lynx does its thing, nice tone you have there. And you manage an interesting photo of tub claw feet, something I've yet to manage Wink

Thanks, Jussi. I shot the feet just to record the event of having cleaned them up - and, I liked their tone. They are painted white, and four are mounted on our antique tub. It will get installed later today ... Very Happy
