Industar 61L/D pictures

[Roberto]

I'm trying to convince myself that I need a new lens..
I was thinking about buying the Color Skopar 50/f2.5 and digging into my archive of old pictures I found something shoot with the Industar some times ago and so I decided to share them (without a specific reason other than sharing pictures)

The camera is a Bessa R and the film is probably Efke 100.
Scanned form negatives with a Canon 4200F resized, some level correction.

I'll post some more later on today... filckr is driving me crazy now..

Robin, thanks..

Maybe someone can post pictures of the CV 50/f2.5 for comparison?

Nice shots, Roberto. Doesn't look like you need a new lens to me. I think you'd find the Voigtlander lens more contrasty than the Industar and likely sharper, but with these types of photos I think you would lose some of the timelessness. In general, while I like my Voigtlander lenses for color, I find them way too contrasty for my tastes for B/W.

In fact.. it will cost me 270 euros.
The point is that I still miss a "good" new 50mm, I have Jupiters and Industars only.

Since I've been very pleased by the other CV lenses that I have (21/f4; 35/f2.5 and 90/f3.5) I was thinking about getting also the 50/f2.5

Would the CV 50/f1.5 be more B&W oriented?
