michali Posted December 30, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 30, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) M8 & 35mm Summarit #1 & #2- #3 Tri-Elmar @ 28mm One of the wonderful things about living in South Africa is the great contrast & the proximity between 1st world and developing world. This is outside a very fancy Mercedes Benz dealership. First 2 pics taken with my new 35mm Summarit which I picked up this morning & these are first pics with this lens. Thanks for viewing.
