... The photos look great. I have to resist! I do not need this lens... I have also Rikenon 28/2.8 which I do not use enough... I have to resist!

Could I ask you to shot one photo wide-open at infinity?

Thank you! This reminded me to dust off my Rikenon 28. Anyway still can post some more 50/2 photos from last week.

Rikenon 50/2 at f 5.6
That second one is really intriguing... I can't quite guess the scale of what is being shown... could be a roof shot from below, or a manhole cover from above. I really like it, even if it hurts a little to look at it

Thank you! I have exactly the same feeling. This is a roof, circa 20 m in diameter. The effect is much stronger in full resolution - I feel little confused even if I know what I'm looking at.

as you can see, the strong sunlight is wreaking havoc with the lens, giving a blue cast...

These are lovely - if in RAW the white balance can be easily corrected, not a big deal.

agreed - I normally would have corrected it, but I wanted to show how the lens handles the strong light here...
