The index and search feature lays it all out. I realized I was wrong about film vs dslr though as Peter's shots with the Nikon D800E and the Zeiss 55mm f1.4 Distagon Otus lens are every bit as good as any of his film shots. I guess it's the lens that counts the most. Of course that is a $4,000 lens. He also took a pic with the Nikkor 50mm f1.4 that I also own. That's a $100 lens (on ebay) and the results are nowhere as breathtaking for Peter or for me.
I also like fooling around with old lenses. Attached is a pic of one of my grandchildren taken last summer. It's with a Mamiya 40mm f3.5, 1/200 sec, iso-100, f3.5, attached to a Nikon D3100 with an adapter. A bit soft all over and nothing in sharp focus, but the lens does give a certain character to the shot. Thanks for all the info. Great website.

Bob, if you scroll down to the bottom of his homepage "images", you'll see a pull down menu under "cameras and lenses". There you will be able to search Peter's images by camera, lens, etc. There are even a couple of I-phone images as well as I recall. There are Nikon images, Zeiss Otus images, and I believe one with the same lens this post is about. If you see an image that appeals to you, the camera, lens, etc., are all posted on the left of the photograph. If you click on say Summilux 35, it should pull up all the photographs taken with that lens. Same thing with the camera listed as being used. Let me know if you have any other questions. Peter's site has some amazing photographs. I guess he strikes a chord with me, one being an amateur, and two, he loves taking photographs of the most important thing in life to him, his family.
