Very cool photos.

I too have just acquired this beautiful gem from Paul Huang (the Canon 28mm f/3.5 Serenar) and isn't it a cool lens? So solid, compact, and great mechanical actions. Thanks Paul!!!

I bought this lens with the intention of using it on my R-D1s as a general walk-around lens in daylight (hence, no need for speed).

I will have to look into using it for colour photos more from your first picture.

I wonder if the canon is same as jupiter 12?

Very cool photos.

I bought this lens with the intention of using it on my R-D1s as a general walk-around lens in daylight (hence, no need for speed).

The lens mates very well with an R-D1, and the color palette is very pleasing, a little more subdued than what you get with more modern lenses. I should stop looking, I'll just end up buying another copy of the lens, although Hung got one in exceptionally good condition 😉

Gohaj, share your settings for the wonderful pictures?

Cheers,

i did not use special settings. Just compensate the exposure where necessary. The exif info is available for those photos. Take a look!

What's the going rate for this lens? There are a couple on eBay right now around $475...seems a bit pricey.

 

[kermaier]

That's definitely too much. Koh's Camera http://www.kohscamera.com/ has a late example in black/chrome listed for $290 with caps. (Koh, BTW, is very honest and reliable, in my experience -- no personal relation or affiliation.)

I bought mine from this forum for $245 (I think).... it was in pristine condition, complete with caps and a 28mm finder and original case.
