This is not a good representation of this lens. I was rushed and missed the focus, but liked the pose. So I over processed and now it is “art”...haha.

A*135mm on K1

Th second shot is not edited, just cropped. Using 135mm for long distance shots isnt the best choice of lens, but it’s all I had.

It might only be my perception, but it seems to me that the 135mm series shows its best results when the subject is not at the extreme distance or maximum focus throw. When a subject is just short of infinity, then the 135mm/f2.8 seem to make it pop a bit from the background.

I'm with you. The 135mm lens is not made for infinity... More for the 20-30 feet distance.
