Hello Flexers,
The blockage - whatever it was - cleared off my server and I was able to post
the following pictures:

The 19 Elmarit without filter (less vignetting)
The 19 Elmarit without filter and corrected for vignetting in CS4
and several pictures using the 90mm Summicron and the 180 Telyt APO.
Focus on the telephotos with the D700 is relatively easy up to f5.6 - f8.0.
Follow focus is hard with moving objects with the 180 Telyt because the
focus throw is so long.
A very interesting series, Howard!
The renditions do look "Leica sharp" and the colour rendition appears
to be closer to Leicas than the cooler, more "Zeiss like" look of Nikon lenses.
Am I correct, that the Auto Diaphragm works properly?
If so, I'll be happy to see Leitax come out with an R to 4/3rd mount!
Cheers!
