M9 with Nikkor 35/1.8 LTM

[Calzone]

My images also do not show a yellow cast. Maybe the difference between my images taken with M9 with Nikkor and M8 with Summicron are due mostly due to having different focal lengths. I suspected this to be the case.

Raid,

I am under the opinion that you are correct: longer focal lengths compress the contrast range, while wides have an inate broad contrast range.

BTW the Monochrom really-really likes the Nikkor.

the beach photos with the heavy sky, particularly #4, are really lovely. i quite like the clear-day images as well.

Thank you Adam. I am still exploring this lens. In general, the "excellent" lenses among the vintage lenses work very well for fog. You want a high resolution lens that is not high in contrast.

I took some snapshots of the sunset over Pensacola Bay yesterday. I used ISO 160 and set the Nikkor to 4.0 (I think).

I continued my use of the Nikkor on the M9.
This photo was taken at 1/12 sec. at F 2.0 in a dark setting. ISO 1600.
Location: Seville Quarter, Pensacola, Florida.

This one was taken at home. F 2.4 at 1/180.

Here is another image with side lighting. F 3.4 at 1/350. (ISO 160)

F 4.8, at 1/500.

Dana again. F2.4 at 1/60 ISO 160.

This lens is growing on me.

Beautiful colors from the M9 on the landscape shots! Enjoy, Raid!

Thank you, Jon. The M9 gives great colors.

Tell your daughter thank you for helping dad out with his new lens!

Mine used to be a good helper...

Dana is a good girl. She knows that I appreciate it.

I took several photos inside Seville Quarter, which is a well known group of bars and restaurants in Pensacola.

These photos were taken in downtown Pensacola on Palafox Street.

Yesterday I took some photos of the setting sun outside Joe Patti's Seafood Store in Pensacola.

The sunset was beautiful, and the M9 with the Nikkor delivered.

Very nice colors. I've always wanted to try this lens, but the price tag kept me away.

 

[raid]

Thanks.
I also waited several years before buying this lens.
The M9 gives such colors.

Raid, I'm planning to sell enough lenses to fund an M9, and I was contemplating letting my Nikkor 35/1.8 go, on the assumption that the deeply protruding rear element might not play well with the M9. But these pictures are making me reconsider! Something has to go, painful as it may be....

My Nikkor is in ltm mount. The Nikon mount 35/1.8 will not fit the M9. The Nikkor and the M9 match very well.

Yes, mine is in LTM as well, more's the pity for my M9 fund. 🙂
