Wow, a very nice collection!

Nice! I've got some of those.

I have the following Canon RF lenses:
19mm 3.5
35mm 1.5-1.8-2.0-2.8
50mm 1.2-1.4-1.5-1.8
85mm 1.5
100mm 3.5.

I sold my 85/1.9, 100/2 lenses when I got a Summilux 75/1.4.

I have the chrome 85mm f/1.9 and the 50 f/1.4. That chrome monster is heavy (but sharp)!

 

[mfogiel]

The 0.95/50 and 1.2/50 are still missing Andreas !

Wow I had no idea there was a black 100/3.5 🙂

Andreas, if you have chance can you compare weights on the 2 100/3.5s?

here's the one you need:

Canon LTM 85/1.5 by unoh7, on Flickr

got me by till i got the gumption to find a 75 Lux. Very good lens, underrated by bad focusing LOL

the unsung masterpiece of the whole line, really. Something like 1800 made. I had to pay 500 for this one.

Light as a feather 😉

I just added two lenses to my list above; I had forgotten to list the 35/2.8 and the 19/3.5

 

[nhchen]

Wow that's alot of cool lenses.
I've got a 35/1.8, 50/1.2/1.4/1.5/1.8x2/1.9x2/3.5 and a 135/3.5. Too many 50mm I think...

Such a huge lens is not what I want to use with a RF camera.

Wow that lens makes the mirror box look tiny! at first I thought it was a tiny external viewfinder.

What I've owned at one time or another; those with * I still have:

* 25/3.5
* 28/2.8
* 28/3.5 chrome
28/3.5 black
35/1.5
35/2.8 chrome
35/2.8 black
* 50/1.2
50/1.5
50/1.8 black
50/2 collapsible
50/3.5 collapsible
85/1.8

All superb, except the 59/3.5 was mediocre. I think I'm going to repurchase a 35/2.8 chrome. And the 85/1.5 looks like something I should try one day, but that must be a heavy beast!

I've got the 35/2.0 v.II, 50/1.8 black and chrome, 50/1.5, and the black and chrome 100/3.5. I've had the 35/2.8 (sold to Bobkonos) and the 35/1.8. Not so interested in the tele lenses or the very wides. I'm not really a collector and most of my photography in 35 mm is done with 50 or 35 focal lengths. I'd like to get the 28/2.8 and the 35/1.5 some day.

from left to right
front row: 2/35, 1.8/35, 1.4/50, 1.8/50, Serenar 1.8/50, 1.5/50
back row: 3.5/100, 3.5/100, 2/100, 3.5/135, 1.9/85, 1.8/85

Your lenses look shiny and "new". This is a very nice looking collection.

My collection is pathetically small compared to most: 35/2.8 Serenar chrome, 50/1.9 Serenar chrome (w/ rare six-digit serial number), 50/1.5 chrome, and 100/3.5 black/chrome. I can't say I really feel the need to expand further, but then I've said that before only to prove myself wrong....

 

[Sustich]

I had the Serenar 1.8/50 (gifted to my son) and still have the 1.9/85 and the 3.5/100 black and chrome.

The 85 weighs more than my first born child but the 105 is unbelievably compact and sharp. The son who got the 50 gave me a Sony Nex 6 in return. I picked up some adapters and put the 100 to the test (plus all my other primes all the way down to the CV 15mm). My son suddenly understood what prime is all about. There is still hope for the next generation.
