Christian, nice shots but... Why B&W?! I think that these pictures would have been more powerful if shot in colors... But of course is only my opinion...
 
Hi Christian. It`s a very nice lens, sharp at full opening. I use it as my long reach pocket option. Sometimes I´m not sure whether it focuses on infinity. When I take a photo at infinity setting I often have an impression that sharpness is not exactly there. Did you experienced that, by chance. Stanis On GRX it would definitely help if it focused a bit beyond but that would require another focusing mount.
 
Hi Stanis, this lens is quiet sharp at F/4,0 even in close-up imaging; here I used it with Visoflex II housing as extension ring.
Your question: I tried out my 1965 TeleElmar and sharpness on GXR is exactly at infinity setting.

Hi Christian. Thanks for reply. I`ll have to wait for next fullmoon to check infinity.. Otherwise my dream design for 135/4 is using the head in some precision, lighweight and collapsible quickfocus unit. I like 200/4 Telyt on GRX too but it`s too heavy for travelling. Stanis
