First weekend with a classic Zeiss

I recently (finally) picked up a late 1950s Exa camera, and with it the Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar 2/58 that I've been wanting for quite some time. It was a Soviet clone, the Helios 44, that got me started in using vintage lenses on digital, and anyone who has used one understands. These are a few photos from the first two rolls of film I ran through with this beautiful vintage gear. The first two are with Arista EDU 100, and the third is with Ilford HP5+.

Love that first one, Matt! Very endearing, especially since you caught the rain in all its wetness.

Thanks! It wasn't actually raining; the sculpture is part of a fountain and that's the water feature. Everything really did come together on it though.
