M8 with Zeiss Tessar 5cm 2.8

[raid]

A current RFF thread on the Tessar 5cm lenses reminded me of my own 5cm 2.8 LTM lens, so picked it up and placed it on the M8 a few minutes ago. I decided not to do any PS at all so that the lower contrast Tessar look will show clearly. Any lack of sharpness is due to me focusing (there is a current RFF thread on eye sight and reading glasses!).

Here, I removed the colors, and I added a little amount of contrast:

My lens has been adapted by somebody to LTM. I got it several years ago on ebay from someone in Italy.

Looks good, Raid. I like the skin tones!

I left the images as they came out of the M8. The colors are muted.
