Uuups Very Happy Very Happy Oh my gosh, I am so blind sometimes.

Very nice series bye the way Smile
The first two are stunning.
Was sharpening applied?

Much more contrast than I expected for a 6x6 medium format lens on a small sensor... I expected more internal reflections under these conditions. The Biometar looks really good and has much better than the Tessar to my eyes. Did you use a hood?
Which version of the Tessar did you use? I guess a younger (not alu, not zebra) one?

I have some good 6x6 lenses (MC Volna-3 80/2.8 and CZJ Flektogon 50/4) and my Kiev 60 is broken... maybe I should also get an adapter and also try them on a small sensor. A tilt and shift adapter would be even more interesting but I can't find an affordable.

Your not blind I edited the post adding the lens information after I saw your question, sorry did not point out that I edited the post.

No sharpening was applied to the images, I did re-size the first 2 images using Microsoft picture manager and the other 2 using Irfanview. No hoods were used on any of the lenses when taking the pictures. The Tessar came attached to a 35mm Pentacon ZI camera, an unexpected bonus. The word Zeiss has been etched out so I am guessing the lens is around 1955. The lens is silver with a serial number of 4169580.

The P6 Biometar is one of my favorite lenses. Thanks to Attila for pointing out P6 lenses a while back.
