Hello everybody!
I've been away for a few years, by now, but the first 10 or so messages
I get after resubscribing were listing:
Dario,
Cotty,
W. Robb,
Shel,
Paul Stenquist,
Mark Roberts...
I wanted to lurk for a few days before entering the fray again but I
can't help it. Heck, it seems nothing
Of course I did NOT!
I only posted my re-presentation before reading your messages...good
morning everybody, on the "far" side of the water, BTW! ;-)))
Where's the beer?
Cheers, Flavio

I bought a lens from them a few years ago, whe they were just starting
to work outside of Germany. It was a bit annoyed to have all the detail

To support this I can say that I shoot some portraits of a friend of
mine a few years ago with the lens. I was using B&W film, ISO400, I
forgot exactly which one.
She liked them a lot so I finally had a couple of the printed 100x70 cm.

We are. This is the final stage of the evolution: heading mule-headedly

Hey, wow. I missed all this...
Does any of you remember "The Who" and the ferocius bantering of him by
that Romanian witty fellow whose name I can't seem to remember?
Take it easy, men. There are much worse things than this.

Hello Everybody,
In an attempt to ease the built-up tension I suggest that you adjourn to
the provided link and have some fun and a laugh about ourselves, as both
human being and photographers.

Hello Steve. I'm glad to see that, although I've been on my own for a
long time I still seem to share the average PDML wisdom...

optical viewfinder (really useful at times). My key factor for the

Yes, they did an AF version that was quite good as well and lighter,
smaller than the Pentax FA 100/2.8 (which I have). I tried it on camera
at a Photo show but then I preferred to stay with Pentax when I had the
occasion.
It was 90/2.8 AF, produced from the end of the nineties, JCO's 90/2.5

Which brings me to wonder why, if it has all that the older heavier,
bulkier one had, didn't they made it like that in the first place...

Thanks Stan.
Right now I'm gathering evidence to justify the purchase of a suitably
equipped K10D to submit to the Boss...
Sadly the price in EU is almost the double of the one in the US.
Hey, your books give you away, be careful. ;-)

Adam,
I don't know the 35/2, but the 40/2.8 "pancake" (which I have), although
an interesting lens at a slighly unusual focal lenght, is not as sharp
as many other contemporary lenses.
IMHO you can't beat the sharpness and low price of a 50/1.7. Even a
50/1.4 would probably be cheaper than the 40m

I'm jumping in without knowledge of preceeding messages on this thread
so forgive me if I'm repeating somone else's words.
I have this lens, even if I didn't use it (as the rest of my photo gear)
for a long time. My guess is that the simplicity of the lens design,
including only 5 optical elements
Reminds me of some shots by Moholy-Nagy. More room around the subjects

A bit too contrasted for my taste, but the choice depends on the planned

Hello Dario! Nice pictures.
I did try some of that in the past. I think that the biggest problem,
given you don't have any technical problem (as a photographer, I mean)
is that the planes are usually rather far and thus saturation of the
images is less then optimal.
Airshows are usually held in
The definition is truly impressive. At what ISO and shutter speeds did
you shoot them?

I remember Photoshop offered a filter able to convert polar coordinates
