Hi all,

I have a lovely screw-mount Voigtlander Color Skopar 35mm lens that I'm thinking of selling. I've sold my other film gear but haven't wanted to part with this wonderful little lens. However, I'm so pleased with my GF1 and 20mm lens that I doubt I'll use the 35mm again. I'm wondering whether to sell the lens or buy an adapter for the GF1.

Does anyone have any sample images made with the CV 35mm on a GF1? It might help me make up my mind.

Thanks.
 
I have the lens and an E-PL1 with ltm adapter: I'll made some test shot for you, but you have to wait some days ;)
I haven't tested it yet, because I'm now playing with CV 50/1.5, CV 90/3.5, and Jupiter-11 (135/4) that are amazing lenses
 
I'd keep the lens and get an adapter. I'm using the GF1 now with my M-mount lenses. It's especially fun with the Nokton 35/1.2!

My Color Skopar is currently on loan, but when I get it back I will certainly post some samples here when I get it back (perhaps this weekend).

Just sell it.

I like my GF1 with the 20/1.7 pancake too. But manual focusing is a pain in the ace... The close distance of rangefinder lenses does not help either.
 
Works great with the G1

Ok, after these beautiful black&white indoor shots, here you some colour shots "on the road", the camera is an E-PL1, but it has the same sensor

hope these shot are useful, I shot in jpeg and the images are unedited (only straightened and sometimes a bit cropped) with all the camera parameters set at their default

just stumbled on this thread. Thanks for posting the images. i was thinking of selling my CV 35mm Skopar, but now I'm thinking twice about it :). I may just get a m4/3 adapter to use it with my G1.
 
Thanks a lot for the images and comments everyone! Seeing those pictures has been very helpful and I think on reflection I'm going to sell the lens. It's not so much the images as the focal length that's bothering me.

Thanks very much everyone - especially blacvios and spiderfrank.
 
You are welcome

The lens is a 70mm equivalent, if you are a "wide angle guy" this can be a bit long ;-)
I hope you'll have no problem to sell it
