The Angenieux can most certainly hold it's own next to the modern 58mm f1,4 lens. I believe it's one of those lenses that will never get old, show it's age or become "obsolete" It will also never lose it's relevance or value for that matter. And those are my thoughts based on the work you show here John. I only read a few reviews and old documents on the Angenieux before I saw your work.
Your photo of the 3 of us under those ancient arches is a nice one. I like it a lot
Frank, there isn't much of a montage to that photo other then adding the banner. While we were waiting to be picked up in Aachen Kristina hung the Nikkormat around Lumis neck and held up the camera. I was there just in time to take the picture
Frank, I just asked Kristina. She filled up the remaining 10-15 shots on a roll of Fuji Superia Xtra 400 in her Nikkormat with 50mm f1,4 K which she converted to Ai herself (under my guidance). The D800 with 85mm f1,4 stayed in the bag all day. The roll is on it's way to be developed, along with the roll of Ilford HP5+ from my Nikon F with which I took a few shots as well on Sunday. We will post results as soon as we scanned the negatives
