My copy...ed i think my copy is having the same issue as urs in the B/S thread..it seems like those in mkt has this tight aperture ring problem.

Well, of a lesser evil, I'd rather a tight aperture than a tight focus ring!

Ah...is a Sonnar...

M9 | Canon 50mm f1.5 LTM | shot wide open at f1.5

Sharp at the point of focus...notice the dreamy and slight glow at the off focus area?

Wah... Seldom see Benny post photos here. Just the shots itself is worth reading this thread!!!

Still my favorite lens. Thought about selling it a couple of time due to recent low usage but decided to keep it with me.

The result from this particular image blew me away. Other than cleaning up of dust and a little tweak on contrast, this image is pretty much straight from the negative.

Both images on Trix. Yes, I need to spend more time with my Sonnar too...
