MUS,
I really like the first frame; very gritty and the contrast really goes well with the subject. The shallow DOF at f1.5 works really well.

What film and dev are you using?

The bokeh is absolutely beautiful. "Great" doesn't suit properly to Zeiss lenses, it's not strong enough. Every digital camera owner would be jealous if only they knew what you can do with 200$ gears....
I particularly like the first one. Did you use a push processing for the grain?

The film is Svema 64 asa 91 year,and the devloper is Fomadon R09. Time of development-16 minutes.

Nice indeed. I like my Sonnar 50mm f/1.5, and the other two "copies". The day they sell a 50mm Sonnar in Canon EF or Nikon mount, I'll buy it; at the right price, that is.

I`ve extended the time of development with 6 or 7 minutes.

Very nice :-)

If you ever have a desire to have the zeiss look in LTM, try the Canon 50/1.5 LTM, great lens, great signature.

Love the first shot.
I like my Sonnar 50/1.5 as well. One of the best lens purchases I've done in recent time.
