Ronazle Posted February 8, 2017 Share #561 Posted February 8, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) But where do you put the 50 when you have the Summaron attached to the camera? The plan is to only put the Summaron on when needed, for such brief periods the 50 goes into an empty front pants pocket and returns to the camera after WA use. Before anyone asks, yes with rear and front caps. Regards, Ron Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Hi Ronazle, Take a look here Leica Summaron-28 -image thread. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
LeicaPassion Posted February 8, 2017 Share #562 Posted February 8, 2017 Mine will be almost permanently attached to my Monochrom MM1... Please let us know how you like it and hopefully post some images. I'm contemplating the same combination. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmradman Posted February 8, 2017 Share #563 Posted February 8, 2017 Not at this point, but there are many discussion on the net about suitable filters for Monochrom cameras - not to mention software programs for similar results. A lot of trial and error for the best results.......as in printing! I am aware of many discussions on the net, I also regularly use contrast filters with my M246 and lenses with standard filter threads (39, 46 &49) my question was did you consider any filter for contrast adjustment considering old fashioned 34mm filter thread on Summaron, did you come to a working solution without resorting to hunting ancient filters on eBay or sheer luck finding one?

I usually buy from Teamwork Digital in London and they all seem to start at 39mm and up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still waiting for my 28 Summaron so have no sense of what it may take to get the tonality I like. I will say that my MM1 amazes me at the RAW images right out of the camera - processed in Capture One. Usually they require next to no PP for the results I like. However, people's expectation/requirements are personal and subjective. Edited February 9, 2017 by 4X5B&W Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ianman Posted March 12, 2017 Share #569 Posted March 12, 2017 Finally had time to collect my Summaron this weekend... here is the first photo I took when I got out of the shop. I was really dull in London on Friday and here in Devon, it hasn't improved much yet. Welcome, dear visitor!

ianman Posted March 12, 2017 Share #570 Posted March 12, 2017 The 5.6 is going to take a bit of getting used to (and also the numerous close ups of my focusing finger !!), but even in challenging light it's capable of quite decent results.

4X5B&W Posted March 13, 2017 Share #576 Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) M9 - Summaron 28mm 5.6 L1000346_ird_004.jpg Seamless foreground to distant depth of field, with no ugly OOF aberrations......exactly why this "classic" design is such an interesting lens. The pixel peepers might not be rushing out to buy one, that's because they are too obsessed with the ultimate sharpness......that would compromise this wonderful "look" of the Summaron 28 - revisited Absolutely thrilled with mine........thank you Leica for thinking outside of the box Edited March 13, 2017 by 4X5B&W 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted March 13, 2017 Share #577 Posted March 13, 2017 hank you Leica for thinking outside of the box Can't wait for a 24mm f11 summaron. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted March 13, 2017 Share #578 Posted March 13, 2017 Or use this one https://www.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/Fish-Eye-Takumar-18mm-F11.html oops it's fish-eye, no Leica sorry Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted March 14, 2017 Share #579 Posted March 14, 2017 Or use this one https://www.pentaxforums.com/lensreviews/Fish-Eye-Takumar-18mm-F11.html oops it's fish-eye, no Leica sorry Oh... leica has to one-up. A Summaron 24mm f16 will be the ideal unique lens, then. 5699$ is also a great price-point. Just outside everyone's budget except for the few fortunate non-shooters. Of course, the latest Uruhi mother of pearl finish should be available. Extra 12,909$. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
satijntje Posted March 29, 2017 Share #580 Posted March 29, 2017 I am offering a 28mm Summaron here in the classifieds section! I do not expect that it will last long there J 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
