90mm Summicron photos

Hello everybody,
I know that 90mm isn't the most popular focal length among rf users, but those of us who use them....lets see some photos.......

Afghan refugee, Kashmir.....Pakistan


Kolkata, India


Gharamipara, Kolkata.....India


I use an early verison of the 90mm Summicron....it is a big lens but I don't care.......I use a medium yellow filter for black and white....anyways....lets see what other 90mm Summicron users are shooting....cheers, Michael

That one of the hands is quite beautiful, the gritty feeling fits the image perfectly.

This is not my favorite image, but here's one with the 90 AA, also with a yellow- 021. Shot some with it today as well, trying to settle into this length with the M's. Strange as I was devoted to my 85 & 105's when I shot SLR's... A recent .85 M7 is changing this it seems.

I think the Summicron 90AA is incredibly sharp.

Superb job, Michael! Here's my very humble contribution to this thread.

With an old version of the 'cron 90, San José, Costa Rica (Scala) in 2005


Same trip, same town, but Ektachrome 200



Koln, Germany, with a newer version and using Kodachrome 25 (2006)



Thanks!

Here are two images of the cat we adopted in December which were captured with my M6 TTL, Metz 54 MZ-3 flash set for TTL metering with the 3502 module between both, 90mm APO/ASPH Summicron, and Fuji's Acros 100 processed in undiluted ID-11 for 6:45 minutes at 68 degrees. These were printed on Ilford's RC glossy paper.

Thanks everybody for the nice comments.....
Hey EnochRoot, I really like that last photo (the fan/feet photo)..very cool

"That one of the hands is quite beautiful, the gritty feeling fits the image perfectly."
sepiareverb
If you look at her hands, you can see signs of arsenicosis....it's not a good sign...anyways, thanks for the nice comment.....
here is another one from a story that is part of the "hands" photo....



all photos were shot using an m6ttl, 90mm summicron (early version), tri-x and kodak 100vc slide film

I am not crazy about the size of this photo...I am linking it to my flickr and if I choose the next size up (695x1024) it seems too big...and this size seems just a little too small....oh well...lets see some more photos from 90mm summicron users

cheers, Michael

it's a real POS, isn't it? it's nice and quiet, but they die rather fast when under constant use.

90mm Summicron pre-asph

Today my 90mm summicron pre-asph arrived.
I love the bokeh and the sharpness. Who needs an APO

These were all taken with my 1st version summicron. My scanner doesn't do this lens justice.
