The Pancolar, Always with Me

When shooting I always carry my Zeiss Pancolar 50/1.8. It's old, has a bit of fungus, the focus is a little stiff and it sometimes wants to unscrew from the mount when I am focusing. But it has a special character.

I was out yesterday with my Contax Zeiss 60/2.8 S-Planar Makro and I switched to the Pancolar for a subject that needed some nice smooth round bokeh. Before I switched back, I shot this (probably at f/2.8 ):




100% crop. Minimal sharpening.

Best $30 lens I've ever owned!
