The Zeiss Biogon 35mm

[Avotius]

Here I am feeling very inferior with my CV 35mm f/2.5 Classic, which does beautiful pictures, but only cost me about $250-300. Sigh. And my other 35mm is a Jupiter-12, which makes beautifully smooth pictures on my Kiev. It was $70 with shipping. Sigh. How can I ever catch up? Do I need to?

I think I'll put any spare cash into another M5 body and leave it at that.

Dont worry about it, I have the cv 35mm 2.5 pancake 2, its a great lens. Hell, mine doesnt even say vogitlander on the front, just cosina epson, that said its a real good lens, when I tested it side by side with the zeiss biogon I found the real life differences in my shooting so small that I decided not to sell off my dinky cosina.

Shameless sample plug:

I would recomend the voigtlander 35mm anytime, its a great peice of glass.

Avotius--That's a nice picture! Sort of impressionist, the way the light grades off into the distance. And thanks for the kind words.
