The new to me Pentacon 135/2.8:
http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/md4aj6z1bsomskz/MX1L2736.fix.jpg Right out of the box. Almost SOOC. Just a tad of sharpening since I've set the JPGs on the 1D2 to be on the soft side and downsizing so that your screens won't explode. -- teleportation kills |

To me the sharpest area was the pipe, just right of center. -- PeterN |

To me the sharpest area was the pipe, just right of center. That was the focus point... The subject was tilted sideways so nothing else was to expected at the shallow DOF you get with a 135 at 2.8 but the same sharpens can be found in the strings of the venetian blind, just to the left. I'll let it meet the target at later date when I've got time and the light is right. Get YOUR target for free: http://wp.me/P3strj-6A -- teleportation kills |

Very soft with SA wide-open, but exceedingly sharp stopped down to f/5.6. In pre AF days large apertures was mainly intended to facilitate focusing... But sharpness in the center at wide apertures could of course be used creatively while taking portraits and such. I think that Peter needs more eye surgery, BTW... -- teleportation kills |
