That's indeed a job well done! The colours are exploding on my screen and
the whole scene is so vivid and well composed! Once in a while, I use the
Summitar 50/2 with my IIIc, it's a great lens, a bit of a bother when it
comes to open and close it if you don't want to walk around with a
collapsible lens hanging down your shoulder. I've read somewhere the
controversial German photographer Leni Riefenstahl owned one and did her
famous Kenya series of the Nuba tribe using a Summitar - among other lenses,
no doubt. Thanks for showing!JM
