Trying it to see if I can focus it properly.
Thank you for looking.

I have always liked the 28mm focal length.  Your shots show such good processing that I think almost any decent 28mm would look as good.

Maybe these pics don't show it but the Otus produces pics of beautiful and different quality, like the 85mm f/1.4. ;)

Aguinaldo,  #2 is my favorite. I find old boats, even almost sunk, a very interesting subject for photography.

Enjoy your new Otus. I, too, really like 28mm and it's equivalents in MF. But owning one Otus is enough for me - I can't imagine carrying any more weight into the field!

Nice images, not sure we are able to comment on the web sizes, that's always the problem ;)

Since you ask about focus; These lenses are so sharp so: The boat shot should have had more focus on the front on the left boat IMHO -

Thank you guys for the comments.

Erik,
I was focusing more on the middle of the boats because of the reflections.
Anyway, this lens is so very hard to focus because you can only confirm later on the computer.
