Canon 25mm lens on R-D1

[Phil_F_NM]

Does anyone have any examples of photos taken with the Canon 25mm f/3.5 on the R-D1? I'm looking for a good wide angle but I'm on a budget and can definitely afford one of these. I do prefer the old screwmount lenses to the new CV ones but the final image is really what I'm going for. Are there any users of this lens who have any un-corrected images from this lens? I'm looking to see how it vignettes. I've searched the forum and have only found a few photos posted from 3 years ago but I believe they are corrected.
Thanks all.

Here are a few taken on my R-D1 at ISO 1600 at f/4. Developed in Epson Photo RAW, with some exposure compensation and noise reduction, but no focal length or light fall-off correction.

Gorgeous photos of great moments! So it looks like the 25mm Canon could be a definite winner. Thanks!

Those are great. Much better than your run-of-the-mill candle blow-out photos. Do you remember what shutter speed you used?

Thanks! I set the camera to AE and the shutter speeds were recorded as 1/111, 1/56 and 1/42 for the 3 shots, respectively.

i find that lens much nicer when you convert it to b/w -- try that. it gives a very old world look that i find exquisite. the tonalities can be quite dreamy!
