I don't have a 90 Summilux...

[merciful]

... because I have a Nikkor 85/2. TX at 1600, f2.8 @ 1/125.

 

[back alley]

we need a shoot out...

nikon vs canon in 85/2 lenses.

 

[enochRoot]

i'd be up for seeing that! once i can save up some money...that is the "last" lens i need to get (somewhere in the 75-90mm range).

conitnuing the theme of the thread..

I don't have a 90 lux because I don't care for telephoto shots with RF

 

[former member]

I have a Tele-Elmarit; does quite well.

The Nikkor 8.5cm F2 is superb. I have a much easier time focussing the 8.5cm F2 wide-open on the S3 or SP than I have with the 85/2 on the F2A.

...because it doesn't exist, would weight a ton and cost me both arms and legs and head!

I use a Summiron instead 🙂

 

[vizioneer]

Summiron huh. Hehe.

Well, if some competition gets some more nice portraits from ya'all I'm all for it. 😀

Ha! Right, I have neither the non-existent Summilux, non-existent Summiron, nor the Summicron. Oops.

Do they look different than shots from an SLR?

 

[Rashomon]

I don't have it because my 50 asph can focus at .7 meter.

I don't have it because my 50 asph can focus at .7 meter.

Indifferent to the different perspective of longer focal lengths?

My Tele-Elmarit does quite well also:

Leitz 90mm Tele-Elmarit f2.8
Delta 100
Rodinal 1+50

My Nikkor 10.5cm F2.5 does fairly well wide-open and close-up on the S3 (and SP).

Focus With the RF spot on the Butterfly, compose, and Shoot.

 

[ChrisN]

Summicron 90

 

[Gabriel M.A.]

...because it doesn't exist

Beat me to it! Nobody has one because it's impossible to have one (yet).

Besides, I have the 90 f/2.8 Elmarit first version. Finally got the Canon 85 f/2 LTM, looking forward to doing some side-to-side comparisons.

But these two were taken with the 90mm Elmarit, wide-open at f/2.8 just this Saturday...

(oh, Fuji X-tra 400, Leica M6 classic)

 

[peter_n]

Tele-Elmarit 90 (thin) at f4.0.

 

[ray_g]

I, too, prefer an SLR for framing telephoto shots. Besides, my $90 Vivitar Series 1 90/2.5 is more than good enough for me.

at f/2.8, XP2 super

 

[ray_g]

Even better for 135mm, which I find difficult to manage with an RF.

Canon 135/2 FD, XP2

BTW, this is what happens when my 'model' gets overworked. 😉

Peter_n, that's a lovely shot of the girls.
