Jericho Sonnar

Yesterday a package arrived from Japan with a like-new 50mm f1.5 Zeiss Sonnar lens. The Sonnar is a classic lens design that is almost 100 years old. It’s a lens I’ve wanted to try for some time but it has a reputation for being somewhat demanding of the person behind the camera! It was this review by Hamish Gill that convinced me I would most likely enjoy this lens and after my first few hours with it I very much am!
