[Leica] Some shots with the 75 Heliar Classic f/1.8

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

Here are som shots taken this morning with the new CV Heliar Classic f/1.8.

The first 4 are at f/1.8, f/2, f/2.8 and f/4. Focus was not adjusted 
between the shots. They were taken on an M9 with latest firmware 
(that's why the number got reset!) at ISO 160, and shutter speeds 
above 1/125 sec. Imported into LR3, camera calibrated but not other 
adjustments. No sharpening, no nuthin'.

The last shot is of Howard Cummer at about 1.1m, and only the colour 
balance was slightly corrected.

For pixel peepers I've included large files at full resolution, sRGB 
jpgs at 70% so they're not too big. Not too much in the way of 
artifacts.

Some focus shift is evident, but in general the lens performs very 
well, providing a look that's similar to that of the 75 Summilux.
