ok, by me it is now friday night, the 30th of november, around 7:15 p.m.
sorry for the last minute notice...

tomorrow i will head out with my new cv 75/2.5 mounted on my zi with new zeiss grip, i will likely shoot the indoor farmer's market as it's too cold to shoot outdoors (i have a cold & sore throat).

anyone up for a 75mm shoot out?

use 90 if you don't have a 75!

If 85 is OK I'm in :)


85 is more than ok!

rollie, was it you that brought the domke 5xa bag to our attention?
i have to say that for one camera/one lens and some film it is a great bag.

Yep. I use it for one camera and three lenses :)
 
An obvious question has to be ... what about the M8 and RD-1 shooters with a 75mm lens? 1.33 cropp factored M8 equals 100mm and the Epson at 1.5 equals 112mm. :p

and if they shoot with a 50?
 
Wish I had a 75 for my R. Been some nice Canon 85s on ebay lately. Looking foward to seeing some good shots.

Good for the RD-1 but still only 65mm for the M8 ... I suppose as long as we know which camera was used when viewing the image it doesn't really matter. It is a characteristic of the camera after all and can't be changed! You could make it for film only ... but that would start a war! :p
 
no wars, please.

i would say that anything that has a similar angle of view as a 75/85/90 on a 35mm film camera would be good.

Seems like it must be raining all over the world :)

Except here in N.C. We can't get any rain it seems. I have seen some good deals on the Canon serenar 85. The voightlander 75 is a little rich for my blood. How does the 85 look through the 75 frame lines on the Bessa R. Not much difference is it?
 
How does the 85 feel on the R? I have a serenar 135 and it's a brick? I think this is the route I'll go anyhow. The 135 takes fantastic photos.
 
I tend to use the 90 framelines of my R when I'm using the Jupiter 9--85mm--seems to keep me from losing important edge details and I can adjust later to exclude unimportant ones if I need to.
