This afternoon a package from Stephen Gandy arrived at my office, containing the 1.2/35mm. Very nice, solid lens, with a look not too dissimilar from a 1960s vintage Leica lens, with the knurled focusing ring and so on.


As soon as I came home from work, I set about to test the lens, using some of my favourite test targets. The first image was shot at f2 or 2.8, the second one wide open:

I think this lens will be just fine.
