Are you guys rockin' the single coat (SC) or multicoat (MC) versions of this lens. I really like the look in Armanius' first shot.

Mine was MC, and all three of those were from the same roll of Fuji Superia 400 (from Costco) - can't remember which camera...

 

[Armanius]

Mine is a SC ... I think! That first photo is one of my all time favorites. Right timing.

When I was trying to decide this two years ago, I settled on the MC version because it apparently had higher contrast and produced less flare.

I don't know about less flare, I'm getting plenty of it.

 

[TraamisVOS]

Although I think some of the flare might be due to the UV/IR filter which is necessary on the M8s.

Those are just great, and could not be more different from each other.

What F-Stop/Shutter speed for the first shot?

What F-Stop/Shutter speed for the first shot?

18th of a second ISO 160. exif says 1.7 although I'm 95% sure it was shot at f4.

2nd one is f8 @ 1/180th @ ISO 160.

Very nice images everyone. Thanks for sharing.

It seems the reputation this lens has for being soft is undeserving. I've enjoyed each photo you guys have posted thus far.
