Yes I know the name says it all. But I just acquired a new Leica Q3 43 and it is pretty darn close to a 50.

I would love to post images but do not want to upset the apple cart.

Thanks for your consideration,

For all of you that have made a donation / subscription to the site, I wanted to say thank you very much for your support. It really helps keep the site going and I want you to know I am very appreciative. Thank you, JT

Big welcome to users of the best focal length lens ever made 😆 I hope you enjoy the site and look forward to seeing many pictures taken with a 50mm. JT

Today, I picked up the new 50mm f1.0 Voigtlander. What a sexy beast😏

 

You can provide simple links to your profile with zessimages.com in the url to make it easy to share on other sites by simply prefixing with your username. For example http://jt.50mil.com will go directly to my profile page. [b]Do NOT[/b] put https in the link as it will not pass the security test and throw a warning. You can use http which will redirect to https for you. If you have a dot in your name, then just remove the dot. so a user name with john.doe would just be jondoe JT

Here is one of my favorites. I like dogs and this one is cool looking :) https://www.50mil.com/gallery/637/med_U637I1321041556.SEQ.1.jpg Show us what you like 😎

So I have noticed that my images look fuzzy on the website. The reason being is because I have a 4k monitor and my display settings on the computer is set to 150% so things don't look so small. Lightroom knows about this and handles the pixels density and ratio properly. However, the web browsers do not. Therefore, in my case, images look 150% and pretty bad. having said that, If I export from lightroom and save as a 4000 pixel image, the its scaled down in the browser a little and it looks decent. Here is an example of the image exported in 4000 pixel https://www.leicaimages.com/photo/100079 compared to 2000 https://www.leicaimages.com/photo/100074 I can try and code around this but I thought this would be a temporary solution. This is what lead to the ability to replace existing photos.
