Beautiful photographs. The Canon 0.95 is a gem.

<p>I don't generally find sharpness to be an issue with this lens, even at maximum aperture. It's not tack sharp, but it's good enough. It can produce a nice glow too.</p>

<p >It helps that the RD-1s has a 1.6 crop sensor. Being that the sensor is much smaller than a full-sized 36mm X 24mm sensor, you're only using the central part of the len's image circle, which is the sharpest part. </p>

<p >The Canon 50/0.95 is actually a surprisingly sharp lens. The key is that the lens mount has to be properly calibrated to a camera body. We're talking sub-millimeter tolerances here. I use one on a Leica M3 and love the results. A friend recently bought a Leica M Type 240, and I'll be trying my 50/0.95 lens on that camera sometime soon.</p>

<p>Jim, you're right about the lens performing best in the center. I used to use it on a Canon 7s and just had it adapted to M-mount. The tech calibrated it to both infinity and minimum focusing distance and am very happy with it. Look forward to seeing and hearing about your results onm the M240.</p>

<p>Very nice ones, this lens with R-D1s combination is a very nice portrait setup.<br>

I have R-D1s with Canon 50/1.2, and I have been able to get quite some nice photos of my families.</p>
