Today Breshna, my 4-year old neighbour visited me again and was spellbound watching my daughter play the big concert harp. She just *had* to try herself ...

100mm f/1.6 Rodenstock XR-Heligon on the Z6. A fast-moving child isn't the easiest subject to follow with a slow-worked manual lens, but I did get close enough on occasion.  The very selective focus and butter-smooth out-of-focus area of the 100 Heligon helped a lot as well.
Superb shot, Birna.

Great to see how the Z makes the Rodenstock 100/1.6  a versatile lens.

I am very happy how this thread developed since I started it in January 2016. It has become a joint effort of so many of us here. Thank you all, esp the regulars right from the start: Fons, John, Akira, Armando!!!

Heads up Frank!

This is seriously good. The 24mm f/1.4 is no slouch.

depends on how you define "regular"...

in the beginning there were three or four of us, now there are 10 or 15 that post at least every week.
