Hi Wayne. Sorry, but I do not have any photos to post. However, I recently purchased the 105mm DC and I thought I would let you know you would not be going wrong with this lens! I have owned the 105mm f2.5 and the 105mm f1.8 in the past and this lens is sharper and works great for low light, hand held shots.

thanks

Here are two pictures taken with the 105 mm dc lens, scanned from the copies (in case the quality is too lousy, I can scan the negatives again with a HP flatbed scanner)

I haven't used the 135/2 DC but the 105/2 I do have and it's a fabulously well made lens both mechanically and optically.

I found this slide taken a week or so back. The shot photo is not anything special, but it was taken with the 105DC hand held at 1/30th second.

A more interesting question would be - does anyone have pictures showing the DC feature in use at one extreme setting vs the other?

Both lenses have very good glass. The Defocus control (sometimes) works better with the lens on manual focus, but you may experiment with autofocus on and shoot away.

Here is one 'sample.'
