I know that there is loss on the internet but you just can't see all the inherent sharpness of this lense. It's awesome and has become my favorite. The recessed lense doesen't require a lense shade either. Don

Nice shots Don. Did you use a filter for any of the shots? Been thinking about getting a 35mm for my FED 2. This will help me with the decision on what lens to get.... Send some of that snow down here in about two weeks[:)]

Hi Frankl: The Jupiter 12 is undoubtly a sharp lens from corner to corner. The one thing thing that you have to be careful with is mounting and dismounting the lens. The rear glass protrudes a bit. The next test will be to load some color neg film and shoot some at the park and scan them. No I didn't use any filter. This lens will work nicely with a FED2 the only problem is with those new voightlander rf cameras. Don[:)]
