the nokton 35mm f1.2 is my fourth 35mm lens and (never say never) i think i can stop thinking about changing hardware at this focal length. why?

• i had it modified (stiff focus issue on m8 on earlier lenses) and 6-bit coded in the netherlands for around €100+. very professional, works like a charm on the m8
• it handles very well (focus/aperture) and is, i find, very balanced in the hand on the m8
• so far, the lens is a strong all-round performer in low and bright light, color and b/w, attractive OOF wider open and very sharp when needed
• the wide range of photos you all have posted in this thread seem to confirm my choice

thanks

greetings from hamburg

Michael, I was wondering what kind of film you're using? I'm digging those saturated tones although it makes me wonder if you're done with b/w for now? 🙂

Hello Renzsu........I have been using fuji pro 100 film a lot recently....I still use black and white (Tri-X) for my work/projects (more serious stuff)...if I am just out and about, I will use xp2 or this fuji 100.....
The stuff on my Flickr from India/Pakistan/Nepal is just a small percentage of my work in black in white...To be honest, I have just a very small percentage of my "work" available online...cheers, michael

Love your shots, Simon. Very textural with great framing.

Nice pictures, as far you can judge based on small images on the web, it seems to be a great performer!
