hi all,
first image of my trip to NYC! first trip with my m6 too, and second roll developing at home.

For my taste (personal opinion only !), the highlights are a tad to bright but otherwise I like this shot. What film did you use ?

To be honest.. the shot sucks at 100%.. I'm still learning handholding at 1/15..
At this size, the shots seems reasonable sharp.. I will post a 100% crop later...

This shows how much sense it makes to judge a lens on 700 pix webshots.. Even get gas from it..

Hey, I've been there! My friend racing up towards the vantage point.

Looks like the lens has a similar character to my version 3 35mm summicron which means it looks great for black and white, got to love that.

1/15s isn't easy .... (I have ruined many shots at that speed ;)) The shot isn't bad, just one stop shorter exposed (1/30s and same exposure) and it would be quite perfect. :)
 
The shot has a very nice atmosphere, IMHO. I like it even if it's not tack-sharp.
 
might not be my technique but mulitpass scanning

Hi,

Just found out that scanning Multipass with my new scanner results in a motionblur! I have a used MicroTek 4000 scanner, and was scanning with vuescan...

I will rescan tonight and post results..
