W/NW - In praise of the Sonnar

[tom_f77]

Some nice stuff on this thread. I like sonnars too... (J8, J8, Nikkor 50/1.4)

50mm f1.5 CZ Jena Sonnar, 1937 uncoated, stops to f11. Shot wide open at 1/1250 with 100 ISO color film. Just a test roll with it on a Kiev 4A.

how about this.. a two-fer.. a Sonnar taken by a Sonnar

Another distracting one (if you're working)...

Contax IIIa + 50mm f/1.5 Z.O. (wide open) / Fuji X-tra 400​

Distractions like that can pass in front of me any time, any day.

 

[ERV]

M5 with 50mm 1.5 Zeiss Opton Sonnar and a Contax to M mount adapter on Fuji Superia 400.

I've wanted one of these adapters for a while and finally found one for a reasonable price on the bay from Lisbon.
Although I have a nice collection of vintage 50's I have to admit there's nothing like a Sonnar.
