Fantastic serie, what a colours festival Shocked .....I love them all!
Sunny weather give an other atmosphere to the carnival but on the other hands, it's more challenging to not overexposed the pictures, you did here for sure a great job.....and I'm also amazed with the IQ of this Contax zoom lens Shocked .....

Just one min punt, “your” ladies are a little bit less "sexy" than “ours” in the Netherlands Rolling Eyes ....... Laughing

Very nice series, this 100mm-300mm Contax seems to have prime-like capabilities! Shocked

Again: fantastic colours and I like how you made some people stand out of the crowd.

Thanks guys, yes, the VS 100-300 is a wonderful performer, probably the sharpest of all Contax zooms.
As the MTFs confirm, it is actually sharper wide open than both the 2.8/180 and 3.5/200 Contax primes are stopped down! Shocked

@Pich: our ladies here have other qualities, for instance lady in #49 can strangle a pork with her only hands! Laughing

In part 3.
I divided the pictures in three parts, because they were too many for one thread.

So, what would you choose between #42 and #43?
One stays, the other goes to the bin.

I would choose #42 for the slight difference in face profile and #43 for the quieter background.

If you could photoshop the man out also tidy up the back of the hair (for the straggly bits) I go for 43...if no photoshop then I prefer 42.

Orio, this series is absolutely superb, and one of the best example series that I've seen of the VS 100-300 and I just keep coming back to check the IQ Cool Mine is currently in customs, looks like a trip to Italia is in order once it finally arrives Cool

Thanks for your advice! I can see the logic about removing the man. I can less understand about the hair (I don't find it hurting). All in all I think I will keep #42 (it's not an image I am really willing to spend much time in PP anyway...)

Thanks Graham!
So, you did buy a V-S 100-300 from Italy? Ebay or web store?
You will love the lens, absolutely.
It is one of my "never-to-sell" ones.

Orio, mine is coming from the USA, but I may have to visit Italy to take in some of your fantastic carnivals one day Smile

I eventually purchased on ebay after some difficulty in getting past the blocked foreign bidder system Very Happy
