Visiting Komatsukaike Marsh.

Just because one is walking through a marsh there is no reason why one can't be fashionable while doing so.

Reminds me of the hearse song...

"The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,
The worms play pinochle on your snout."

Again, I must be giving away my age.

First time to hear about a hearse song, Yokosuka Mike! Perhaps more of a cultural background thing than an age thing, though?!

Here's a few more Ultron 35mm pics. I finally got to shoot my favourite coma testing target, and the Ultron passed with flying colours! Right up there with the best from Leica/Zeiss and totally smokes the Zeiss ZM Biogon 35/2.

No coma in this one either!

This one is a bit hazy because its shot through a window.

I think this was 1/500 f/8 with a yellow filter.

Here's another one shot wide open on Natura 1600. Nope, no coma.

Thanks Jon! Now all I need is some way to get out at night with this lovely little lens 🙂

Great photos here showcasing this sweet new lens’ performance. I’m trying to stop looking at this thread because my Summicron ASPH is getting nervous! Haha

Here's the new Voigtlander Ultron 35mm f/2 Vintage at closest focus and apertures between f/2 and f/11. Taken with CL on HP5+ in XTOL 1+2. See my Flickr Ultron gallery for 1920px size:

Note: f/2 and f/2.8 samples have slightly different tonal mapping due to differences in scanner input settings (i.e. not due to the lens).

Some more pictures with the Ultron 35mm f/2 Vintage, Leica CL and Pan F 100 in ID-11 10min 20C. V700 scans.

The two 16:9 crops are foreground removal only, so you're looking at the top part of the full frame width.

Bokeh is a bit busy in the second image. I think it was taken @f/2.8 but can't be sure.
