Hi all

Not sure if anyone was watching my ebay listings for my zeiss lenses, but unfortunately there were some technical problems with all my listings and they had to be re-listed again. So if you were watching the items, you've been cut off from the listings.

Kindly,
Rob.

Ok all....

The prices of my 35mm and 85mm Zeiss lenses have come done substantially so get in quick if you are keen! Posted on the market place, ebay, facebook and gumtree! GRAB A BARGAIN WHILST YOU CAN!!!! Don't wait for the prices to get lower, you'll be waiting a looooooooooooong time!

Oh, I've discounted the international shipping cost too.

Kindly,

Rob.

Boom, just like that, the 85mm has sold.

Just like that, my Zeiss glass was no more. All sold now. What a ride it has been! All the best everyone shooting with your lovely glass!

About 18 months ago, Rob (PM name Lightsource) got in touch with me about selling my ZK Makro Planar lenses (2/50 & 2/100) to him. I wasn't able to help Rob get these excellent lenses, but he persisted elsewhere and found someone ready to sell theirs in a package that included the ZK lens that had eluded me for years; the Distagon T* 21/2.8. So Rob got his Makro Planars and gave me the opportunity to pick up the elusive Distagon 21/2.8 ZK. Now, as Rob has moved on I feel I must acknowledge his help and thank him for finally connecting me with what is one of my favourite lenses. Hopefully other owners of the 21/2.8 drop by and share what they've captured with this lens too.

Bro! An absolute pleasure passing it on your way. It's brought me much joy seeing you use it and enjoy it. Thanks ever so much. Kind of you..... Kindness makes the world go around.

The sunrise shot above was taken on the headlands near the Lighthouse at Port Macquarie in NSW. Prior to the other image I captured some shots facing south along the coastline as the colours were your typical magentas and cyans observed before sunrise. I felt though that this was a nothing image so decided to play with it in post to see what textures could do whilst retaining the natural colours present at the time. Looking at it now I wished I'd cloned out that mongrel sign on the right. Man is it distracting. Actually maybe even the two people near the sign too? Any thoughts?

Hope to see more pics from others soon as I've been too slack to get out and capture some new one.

My Distagon 21 is an F version Leitax converted to Pentax.

Yes, 28mm is a very nice focal length, wide enough to include surroundings, but still not so wide as to get the dramatic distortion of perspective. And the 28/2 is a very nice lens.
I will miss it, as I am almost done myself, transitioning from Pentax K Zeiss to Loxia Zeiss on the Sony A7rII. And unfortunately, there is no Loxia 25 or 28mm. 21 is definitely too wide for me.

I have one lens left to sell: the Zeiss makro planar 50mm f2.... Amazing how fast they sold

Hello,


Should anyone in Europe be interested: I just put my mint Zeiss ZK 50mm f2 makro planar on the Pentax marketplace. I have already sold all of my other ZK lenses, this is the last one. The others were gone before I knew it, but this one is still for sale.

Hi!
My question is to those who had an experience of shooting both Zeiss 50/2 Makro Planar and Pentax DA*55/1.4. Could you tell me your thoughts on these lenses regarding portrait and landscape photography? I have the DA*55 and I like this lens. However, I also saw some images (not macro ones) from 50/2 Makro Planar that look gorgeous. Now I wonder whether the Zeiss really does deliver a better "3D look" or it were just better PP-skills of corresponding photographers.
