Summar clone from the old USSR?

[Brian Legge]

Wow, I'm impressed. The subtle detail in the leaves is wonderful. Granted, I know this blurs the the lines between your exposure, the film/developer pair, etc but it definitely shows the lens is capable of a lot!

Thanks Frank and Brian.

I'm impressed with other pictures I took that day but they weren't taken wide open or even near wide open and so don't show much of optical interest. If I ever get the time I'll do some serious tests wide open and then the next two stops with all my ex-USSR lenses in the CL at a metre's range.

So far I've been impressed by all of them and the old Summar. And Ilford's contribution.
