dancook Posted July 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Was looking for an occasional change of pace from my Leica Q. Hoping to spend less than £1000 for both Camera and Lens, so not sure on my options for a summicron. Can anyone make a recommendation for 35mm lens, and comments on choice of body? thanks - edit - maybe i should consider the m6 again (oh and upping my budget.....oops) Edited July 12, 2016 by dancook Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 12, 2016 Posted July 12, 2016 Hi dancook, Take a look here M2 + 35mm Cron? F8, Mono Street Photography. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Rus Posted July 12, 2016 Share #2 Posted July 12, 2016 A CL or CLE with a cron-c 40/2 should be within the budget~ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen.w Posted July 12, 2016 Share #3 Posted July 12, 2016 An M6 and a Voightlaender 35mm f2.5 would be a nice combination, and could see you squick in under 1000 GBP: http://www.reddotcameras.co.uk/m-bodies/10216-leica-m6-072-classic-chrome-body.html 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I myself have been tempted by the CLE for quite a while now Just checked the list on ApertureUK, there are some fairly good choices there~ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB_tx Posted July 12, 2016 Share #6 Posted July 12, 2016 I've used the CL & 40 for decades as my travel camera, and it is very nice for street work. Also the 90 Elmar-C for the CL is excellent, and slips in a pocket for use when needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_eraldcity Posted July 12, 2016 Share #7 Posted July 12, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've used the CL & 40 for decades as my travel camera, and it is very nice for street work. Also the 90 Elmar-C for the CL is excellent, and slips in a pocket for use when needed. Same for me. 2 CLE bodies, 28mm elmarit v3, 40mm summi and a 90mm m-rokkor leitz have been, for quite a while, my analog mainstay for travel. A fixed lens minilux is also stellar for really light travel if you can accept and prepare for its limitations. Best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
