Hey Douglas.Hi, Ingo. I'd imagine the problem with the 35 and 50 Summis on the Hawks is that they've got floating elements for close focus, so the Hawks probably throws everything off a bit.
One difference that Douglas might have overlooked is the wider apertures in the 'luxes compared to the Elmar. How do the 'luxes do stopped down (f/3.5 region to compare with the Elmar) in the close focus region?Hey Douglas.
Yes, that might be the problem. I´m not that into lens construction but this sounds plausibel.
Anyway, the adapter works great and stopping down a bit for sharper pictures ist no problem.
I just miss the minimum focus distance from my Contax G lenses (50 cm)

Thanks Vivek. I used some wavelet sharpening + USM for clarity to get that "300" look on the knights. The Black Knight in the second shot definitely has a King Leonidas vibe about him.Michiel, Lovely portraits!
Carlos, Fabulous stuff there!
Great shot Michiel.Two street portraits from today. (Wide open)
