Franco, beautiful photos, thank you for sharing them!

I love my Voigtlander Nokton 50/1.5 & Color-Heliar 75/2.5 lens and the photos they produce.

Very impressive output for the Voigtlander 90/3.5 for shots taken in a concert hall.

. . . . . raises the question, do I need another 90mm lens . . . . :banghead:

Life is Grand!

A faster lens would have been nice to keep to keep the iso levels down.

Thank you, Dan, I'm just starting to know what I can (and cannot) do in digital with my m39 lenses. I have the Nokton 50/1.5 too, and I like it very much...
The concert was outdoor, not in a concert hall, the problem here was the combination of low light and fast moving subjects. I shot 90% of ny photos at 3200 iso

Of course, but for me the choice was between 50/1.5 90/3.5 and 135/4, and 50/1.5 was too short for the job

Nice shots.

What did you do to clean out any noise - if at all?

Great set! Looks pretty good for ISO3200 actually. Love it!

The concert was fantastic, I enjoyed it very much, Jono

ps: are you from Cornwall? I visited Cornwall many years ago, I found a beautiful land and nice people

 

[spiderfrank]

now some black and white conversion, hope you like them

I think I like the B&Ws even better than the color images.
The "fixer-stained one looks particularly nice.
thanks!

Of course you do Dan. ...and eBay 200480482567 is a possible bargain.

Yup, I like them. The top one in particular also if it benefits from being showed together with the other ones. It made me feel happy.

regards,

Jonas

thank you, Bob and Jonas, I almost eat my hands for not have used a film camera, but my fastest film in the fridge was a 400 iso roll and my Canon 70-300 is only f4-5.6...
not fast enough
