Z50 + Jupiter12

(1/6) > >>

MEPER:
Today I went out on a walk with Z50 + Jupiter12 which is a 35/2.8 lens from the past. Probably based on a Zeiss design as many Russian vintage lenses.
I was quite surprised that lens was able to make a sharp image on a modern digital sensor. But it seems so......
All images shot at f5.6. The corners are general not as sharp as center depending if corners are in foreground or not. Images where corner is in foreground seems sharper so maybe some field curvature?
It would probably help to stop further down. Lens seems free from CA.

MEPER:
A 100% crop of DSC_1180 to evaluate sharpness.

MEPER:
A few more images. It was quite cold to walk around......

MEPER:
A 100% crop of last image.
I discovered a bird at top of mast of ship.
So lens is also good to capture birds........

Snoogly:
Thanks for this. I am toying with buying a used Z50 body, and images like these give me confidence about the camera.
