First prints from my M6+50mmZM combo.

[totifoto]

I finally did some good prints from my M6+50mm ZM combo. Had this M for about 2 months now and loving every minute of it. So nice to see the prints and the amazing sharpness the ZM gives. To bad it wont show after scanning them into the PC 🙁. Did some small prints from my first roll the first week I had it but they where crap 🙄 Need to spend more time in the darkroom to get better at it.

Anyway here are 3 prints I did tonight that I´m pretty happy with.

My son checking out my Brownie

My daughter posing

The curious Icelandic horse

Now I´m just wondering what 35mm lens to get for my M6 🙄

Love the 2nd two, really love tat horse pic! Seems your Zeiss lens is a great one for B/W!

🙂

What was your process for printing? (layman's terms)

lovely photographs

I particularly like the one of your daughter... her coat's pattern is visually similar to the weathered concrete, and the overall tonality is great. I might be tempted to crop some off the left side...

[Krosya]

Great photos! Hope to see more soon!

Very nice. Agree with Doug's comment above. Like the horse shot. The f2 50?

 

[jplomley]

Were these optical prints or inkjet from scanned negs? Just curious.

Does ZM mean Zeiss Mount lenses?

 

[kywong]

All three are great, but I particularly like the first one. Is it the Planar or Sonnar? And what film did you use?

Thanx 😉

yes this is the 50mm F2 lens

Were these optical prints or inkjet from scanned negs? Just curious.

these prints are made the original way, in the darkroom.

Does ZM mean Zeiss Mount lenses?

Does ZM mean Zeiss Mount lenses?

I think more accuratelly it would be "Zeiss M Mount"

Very nice prints.

 

[Brad Bireley]

They are all very nice. I'm curious about how you get the edges around the prints?

 

[andrewteee]

These are all wonderful shots.

 

[LeicaFoReVer]

The (new) tmax 400 and xtol are a great combo, I've used them in the past. And now I have to try on my enlarger. Great, great photos.

Super shots, that 50/2 is such a beauty and it really shows off when printed so nicely. Very nice work. As for a 35mm... get the Zeiss 35mm f2! Very similar look.
