Bit of a cheat--28 2.8 mounted on XE1 via Metabones helical:
That is cheating

Shot the last roll just with the 90. The lens works really well on my G1 despite what I read online. Occasionally, I like to restrict myself to use a specific focal length extensively. As a wide-angle guy, the 90 is not usually my cup of tea, but I love the results and I love the 1:1 view when this lens is mounted on the G.

and one for the naysayers claiming the G1 cannot focus the 90 for action shots.

Some gorgeous tonality here, mind sharing film/developer/development time? Love the first shot especially.
Thanks for the comment... The first one (with Contax G1) used Ilford XP2 Super exposed at EI 250. The second one (with Contax G2) used Fuji Neopan 400CN exposed at EI 250. Both were commercially developed in standard C41 process by my local lab, producing 6Mp jpeg scans. I've been pretty pleased with these chromogenic B&W films...Some gorgeous tonality here, mind sharing film/developer/development time? Love the first shot especially.

I must say I'm exceedingly surprised. I shot a few rolls of XP2 and did not care for it. That said, I imagine the light, editing, and of course the photographer had more to do with it.

One from the G28, a gem of a lens. Shot on Gold 400, but with quite a bit of saturation added in via LR.

How do you enable double exposure film advance?

G2 Multi exposure
Multi exposure is a setting on the drive dial. It is best explained in the instruction book for the G2. Link here:

The multi exposure mode is explained on page 164. It may be some help to you to read the complete instruction manual as this camera has some very interesting features.

Duh, I forgot about the little double frame symbol in the LCD display... I so rarely change the setting from single frame...

Fabulous, 2wenty. And not only this one--you have a very distinctive signature with Contaxes, night, light, and long exposure. But I especially like this in BW.

Thank you! I strive to be different.
