You share so many pleasing images with us, pepperberry farm. But those gourds really hit the spot for me.
A delicious photo!

Adding some to this post.
This lens is very nice.
One of my favorite 50mm lenses because of this unique sonnar character, the size, the rarity and the longish 58mm "portrait" like 50mm focal length.
Beautifully made and so uniquely small.

The lens is not about matching sharpness vs the competition.
Its really about what it can give and add over the other 50mm lenses out there.

excellent work!

and you are perfectly correct - this lens is NOT about a character-less sharp image... this one is about ART....
