Some 6x6ers from my first roll, some are affected by the unfortunate light leak but perhaps still useful as samples:

The lens looks capable and very nice to see some summer scenes while I freeze here in an English winter. Smile

Yes, it's a good lens for medium format. Equals to 28mm AOV in small format FF. Sharp + very decent bokeh.

We had some cold too beginning of October, but now it's really like late summer temperatures (20+ C°)
Good financially, as I don't have to turn on heating. Smile

I put the heating on today at 6pm, it's really cold here, not sure of the temperature, once I got warm, I stayed inside. Smile

I always ignored this lens because the first P6 lens I obtained was a Flek 50, but this looks like a viable alternative, thanks for sharing.

Well, Flek is much better under all respects and especially with architecture... but average price is more than double, and those few extra degrees of field angle
(27mm vs. 30mm of the Flek, in small format terms) can have a reason to be in some occasions.

Yes, I was lucky to get my Flek cheap because of wear on the barrel but the glass is good and it shoots very well. Same with my Biometar 80, I got that very cheap for the same reason. I must use my P6 more often.
