You know, it is kind of funny, with your GSWIII photos appearing right next to JMFs photos with the Plaubel. I have always had a minor, sometimes major, case of GAS for the Plaubel 67, but have denied myself as a sort of statement, to myself, that I CAN fight GAS. Having just reviewed a Youtube video on the Plaubel, again, I could not help but notice that the GSW is not that much larger than the Palubel. I think your photos show that the GSW can stand in as a surrogate for the Plaubel. Excellent photos, as are JMF's. Thanks for helping a lost sole in his constant battle against GAS. :) I think I will keep the GSW in the car for the next couple of weeks.

Best,

Wayne

The frustration of old, un-coated glass can be fun. Just bring your dog.

Contax II, CZJ 28/8 Tessar, Kodak Tri-X (100 ISO)

Zoey, head of SEIFCO (Southeaster Indiana Female Canine Organization) declares vertical fire hydrants a "dead end." Zoey: "It is deplorable. One of the greatest joys of canine life, wetting a fire hydrant, is denied to half of the canine world." Calls on sisters for action:...."possibly more "accidents" in the homes?, until something is done to retrofit hydrants to horizontal positiion." Points paw at Trump.

Lovely cameras! I recently replaced that same Sekonic lightmeter with their modern very small model. It can slide right onto the hot shoe (or carry it effortlessly on the neck) and I even prefer it on my Leica 4-P to the Leica light meter (which is so much cooler but a bit klutzy).

Contax II, CZJ 28/8 (Black one, original for Contax I) Kodak Tri-X exposed at ISO 100.

It is at the same time a wonderful and frustrating lens. Un-coated so flare and contrast are problematic....worst flare problem of any lens I have used. Front element allows rotation until the element is completely screwed off the lens body, although closest focus is marked at one meter, I am finding it possible, through guesswork (I was guessing here but DOF saved me,) to use much closer. It may even be possible to use as a macro. Depth of field is incredible. In its day, it must have been a true wonder to the photography world.

I had one, and sold it, was just thinking about it again and it’s one I should have kept !

The lens, not the dog.
