MM 50mm Summicron

While I was getting my haircut this afternoon, I spied these two getting out from the rain for a smoke.

Great shots all around guys. Nice to see this thread being kept alive!

Pushing the darkness quotient a bit here while photographing at our Canadian property -- my 35/2 V1 Summicron displays a very interesting character wide open. That vignetting is as shot at f/2.

I've found that placing the subject more or less in the center pretty much guarantees it to be tack sharp at f/2.

Thank you Alberti! It was fun while getting clipped watching these guys in the doorway while it poured rain out there.

Great seeing and composition on the old cars Tom!

The craziest photo I've ever taken, but I like it a lot. The clearest water I've ever seen, with beautiful reflections. M9M with 7Artisans 50mm f/1.1. No editing other than the slightest increase in exposure.

Same set up as above, but with a little help from Auld Nik Silver

Took me a second to spot the sleeping passenger!😱

This was shot with an M9M with a CV 35mm 2.5 M mount.

I was driving north on highway 99W north of Corvallis, OR.

Shot it out of the passenger window.

Some of these shots have such smooth tones, they look like they were shot with at least a 4 X 5!

Nice shots David, especially the one above (#5264)

Nice one Allen -- very clever!

Just got my 12.5cm f/2.5 Hektor back from Frank Marshman -- I replaced the rear element with one that didn't look like it had been cleaned with steel wool, and consequently needed the infinity focus readjusted.

Yeah I'd say we got it dialed in now 🙂
