OK... that photo over there was shot with a new lens that I got some days ago in an absolutely mint condition:
http://forum.mflenses.com/viooh-t47850.html
And since I do not have the time to shoot a photo of two new lenses, I link to an external site:
http://www.adaptall-2.org/lenses/17A.html
It's the little brother of the famous SP 35-80 and a surprisingly good zoom lens.
And it's so compact that it even fits to a NEX-7 very well.
The other lens is a Vivitar 2.8-3.8/35-70 which also has really surprised me.
More later...

The 35-70 is indeed a good lens. I have one too. Albeit mine has stiff zoom.
Congrats! |

I used to have it (the 35-70). Really a very nice lens! Also it has a very useful macro setting for closeups.

keep your hair on It was Friday night, they were all out clubbing 
It looks fabulously sharp. I think I must put one on my wish list, it will be a good lens to have on the ME Super  |

Carsten, I see only one photo here. And, historically, photos posted in the Lenses section are generally not commented. People assumes that it's a just a sample photo.
Your photo is good, you should post it in the Galleries for more comments.
I would also add, that so far, you have spent more time complaining than posting actual information on your lenses, how they look like, feel like, their use etc...
Please don't take this as a hard critique, but you should understand, that it's difficult to pretend that people comments on nothing, or nearly nothing.
Start with posting more photos.... photos of your copies of the lens... a little series of photos taken with the lens... write your impressions about the use of the lenses...
then you'll see comments coming.
But so far, you have done little more than saying "I bought two lenses. I have no time for photos or for text, but you should comment". But you provided little to comment about.
Sorry, a friendly critique

No offence taken, Orio, don't worry.
What I am pointing at is that I got a lot of responses in the thread in which I only wrote "I got two new lenses".
More than in all my last threads (with photos) together.
BTW, here is one photo and the link to another one...
