I have not done much shooting this winter. But now, in preparation for lots of shooting this spring, I thought I'd get to know one of my newer Zeiss lenses, the ZF 35mm f/1.4 Distagon.
Below are a few, quick, handheld, natural light shots I took at f/1.4 and f/2 with my K1.
Click here for a larger copy of one of them. I believe that they may be some of the first photos taken with this lens posted on this forum.
I searched Flickr and could not find a single photo taken with this lens on a Pentax K1. I would not be surprised if I have one of the very few copies of this lens in the Pentax K mount (I did the Leitax conversion myself).
I think that I like the bokeh, and look forward to using it more this spring...

Originally posted by les3547 I was checking out my new Zeiss 21 seeing how an extreme crop held up for detail. Besides that it's sharp from edge to edge, the detail in this incredibly detailed shot shows up remarkably well. It appears purplish because that is how the vines in early Spring actually look:
Full:
Crop — you can see lots of detail even through all the wires. The dog is there everyday with his owner (not sure which guy it is) and blissfully runs around all day searching for gophers (which are ridiculously abundant here):
Les, that certainly is a sharp sharp lens. Look forward to see even more from you with the Z21

Dave
