First photos with ZI and C-Sonnar 50mm f1.5

Looks fantastic to me - I love the rendition of this lens. Is yours a factory one or one corrected for the alleged "focus shift"

Thanks for sharing!

These are great! What's the talk about "focus shift"? I just came here to see if I could find out more about this lens, but I've already read 2 threads where this topic is discussed. Is this a big issue with the 50mm Sonnar C?
 
Nice. The tonality and general "look" of Zeiss lenses is superb - 35mm and MF.

I am very tempted to swap my Summicron-M 35mm ASPH for the Zeiss simply becuase the Zeiss just seems to have a subtlety lost in the current Leica version. Funny since my current Summicron-M 50 has that subtlety and I would not part with it for anything.

Do others have a similar view?

Not with me.
 
I like the B/W very much but I think the color shots really show off the unique signature of this lens. I have been adicted to Superia but you have convinced me that I need to shoot some Reala. Again, nice images.
