One City One World - September 1 - 30 2011

Group show.

Opening Thursday September 8, 5 - 7PM

Thanks!
 
I had the 28/3.5 as a backup to my 28/2.8 Elmarit ll years ago. I loved the size, but it was "mushy".
 
Is this a walk in, public exhibit?
I probably cant make it on Sep 8, work till 6, but wouldn't mind taking a peek....
So Cal, did you get a silver 28..?
 
I know 28 is your FOV. Its only been one day, but I already love this lens. For 28 I was shooting a 28/3.5 Canon/Serenar.

Damn Cal, you bought one? How about you sell me that Serenar now?

I might go top this show too. Can you remind me?

Production of silver versions were stopped in the early summer of this year. I just couldn't hold out anymore and got a used non 6-bit black Cron in like new condition. Also coming later this week is a Leica 12466 scalloped hood that is just plain evil.

For now I'll be using the Canon VF'er.

John,

If you want the lens its yours. PM me for the price. I also have a B&W yellow filter for this oddly sized lens that I had to wait over 10 weeks for. Let me know if you can use it.

My version seems to be sharp, but basically I only used it at two F-stops: F5.6, anf F8.0.

I kinda like the Canon VF'er, but the Leica SLOOZ has bright lines that might be an eventual upgrade, if I can find a chrome version.

Also the focus on my Canon/Serenar is kinda stiff, but this ended up being an asset because I basically zone focused.

BTW In your work I kinda love how close and tight you get with a 28.

Thanks guys. Hope to see you on the 8th. RSVP if you can. The exhibit is in a government building. Tight security.
 
Thanks, Cal, I just called the RSVP number. See you at 5:00PM

Very cool. A show and than a great shooting opportunity where exhibitionism, beauty, and fashion will be a spectical for us to shoot spread thoughout the city.
