Very nice work, Juan. How do you transform to BW. I guess there's a bit of work involved, using the chanel mixer, right?

Thanks Jens.

This is a lens to be used in plenty of light, as it gets better the more you close it down (check the specs) but if you do, it's plenty sharp! As you can see, it's no slouch wide open, either! ;-) Very good stuff, Juan. keith whaley

RE: GESO: An evening with the M100/2.8
since the 100mm lens is effectively the same AOV of a 150mm lens on full frame 35mm format, these photos clearly disprove that only a 85mm lens is good for portraits ( on full frame) which would be the same as using a 55mm on the istD which you didn't (100mm!). This is why I like the 105 and 120mm lenses for portrait lenses on full frame as well as 85mm. You did fine with 150mm equiv so 105 and 120 are certainly NOT too long for portraits on FF as many would like to suggest JCO -Original Message- From: Gonz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 12, 2005 4:05 PM To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net Subject: Re: GESO: An evening with the M100/2.8 Like em very much.
