Here's my first few snap shots using Sony ZA 85mm f1.4 Carl Zeiss Planar T*

Still trying to improve my shot composition and skill...

Not so sure if anybody is interested with the photos taken with ZF 25mm F2.8 for closeup/macro shot?
closest focusing distance of the lens is 17cm, which mean is only 2-4cm infront of the lens filter. :bigeyes:

You must have been dangerously close.

It's already “吊壁“，sharp teeth but toothless. Can get very close without fear

Wow just can't for mine to come back from conversion to test.

The wait is worth it. The optical formula of the 50/1.4 has not changed. I will take it that there is no way they can improve on its design. So one with AF is so much more convenient.

As long as it is taken by a Zeiss, we are all interested.

Contax N 24-85 with the waterfall series.

That was shot at Dubai Mall. Are you based in Dubai as well?

I just drop by for the weekend and wanted to help these guys put on their pants. BTW, impressive arsenal of lenses you have got.

Hi guys,

I've been looking at the Zeiss ZM 50mm lenses: The Sonnar f1.5 and the Planar f2.0. Just like to know which lens is better at reproducing the the 3D separation effect seen on the photos below:

I've heard good things about both Zeiss lenses but would like to hear from your experiences as well. P.S. The photos above were taken with a Konica Hexanon 60mm f1.2 lens on a Leica M9.

Cheers!

I have been using the ZM 50/2 and quite like it.

Have not tried the ZM 50/1.5. Have been thinking about the optimised for f2.8 version. But now want to try the ZM 25/2.8 first.

 

[FBA]

I see. So can the ZM Planar F2.0 give the shallow-depth-field to create the 3D separation effect? Or do you require a lens with a larger aperture, like the Sonnar F1.5?

U can search the net for more examples by both the lenses. To me 50mm at f2 has enough shallow depth of field, u can narrow the depth of field by moving closer to your subject, or use lens with longer focal length.

Ups the thread .......

Some of my photos taken with Zeiss 150/2.8 Sonnar T*. This lens was used on Agiflite military system, modified for SL66 mount.

Today, I manage to find a carl zeiss Olympic 180mm f2.8 (M42 mount) sitting quietly in a 2nd hand store. It was recently put on sale just 2 weeks ago. Bought it immediately after I checked that it was working properly. it is a heavy lens weighing in at 1.33kg. Took some test pics with it and the results are nice. Will post pics I took of it once I find some time to take it out for a shoot.

Love this lens. Though it is heavy, focusing & aperture setting are easy when used with a monopod. Results are very nice too.
