It's the Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 135mm f/3.5 ("zebra" version), an East German lens from the late 1960s. It looks like this from the side (photo is of the version that was exported to the Western bloc, hence why it says "aus JENA" and "S" instead of "Carl Zeiss Jena" and "Sonnar"). Here's a picture of me shooting it into a mirror shortly after I first bought it:

Another one from this lens, this time the traditional flowering dogwood shot:

That explains the bokeh. Smooth as silk.

I dabble in landscape and street photography, and a hint of portrait photography. I'll post some street stuff next time

I’m an amateur photographer. I have an ordinary semi-professional camera and I mostly use it when travelling

Spring has come to Newark once again, and that means it's time to go check out the largest collection of cherry blossom trees in the USA (yes, even more than DC's!).
All photos taken with the Carl Zeiss Distagon 28/2.8 (C/Y) or Makro-Planar 100/2. The forum seems to be automatically downsizing some of them though.
