Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon 25mm f4.0 m42 zebra on Canon 5dm2.
Thanks to Attila for this lens, a very unique piece of glass.

I did an amateur comparison between this lens and the Yashica 24mm f2.8 c/y.
Tell me what is your opinion.

I've had this lens for a while - i bought it for a friend and played a couple of weeks with it - and I fell in love with it (probably the best m42 wide that I have ever used) and these pics show why.

I had this lens in exakta mount. lovely lens indeed. I used in Sony Nex. I sold mine only because I need more compact lens.
It is nice to use it in DSLR, specially MarkII. yours looks great Hoan.

The area had been developed alot last few years, to be more like 'european' style, but still not same experience.
The best places I have been which are similar are in the western coast of LA, beach towns, like Santa Monica.
I can also taste that Starbucks has a few minor improvement Very Happy

In spite of mirror issues at near infinity, I also ended up using this lens more than the Yashica in the same day.

Thanks Suat. It's surely not the most compact, but it has character and properties that other 24s don't have.
