Hi - thank you for your feedbacks. An update: I went to my local Leica dealer and he assured me that the lens comes with a more or less loose filter thread that tightens onto the lens once a filter is attached. All is well now and both parts are as tight as can be, locked firmly in place. Niels...

Sorry, the APO Summicron-M 1:2,0/75 ASPH, 6-bit coded version.

Hi everybody, I need some help /advice: I just changed the UVa filter on the lens (bought second hand with a Leica UVa on the lens). When unscrewing the filter it turned out that the filter thread is a separate loose metal part, supposed to be pressed onto the lens. There is no fixed thread underneath the loose part. I would have expected the thread to be a fixed part of the lens. Is the loose thread a normal detail of this specific lens? The lens performs so well, love it to pieces, but would like it to be technically in good shape. I know help is somewhere out there in Leica Forum and I can't thank you enough

Hi Tony, which lenses did you use for the set? I'm guessing 75 mm...or 50...but I could be totally wrong, happens quite often...

Thanks, Archiver, Herve5, and Infiniumguy, it is always good with different ways to go. I usualy bring several empty memory cards and only use them once for future safekeeping. To be extra safe and not sorry I will like to have an additional archiving when travelling. I must take a closer look at the OTG and also Nexto CF ways. I appreciate the good help with my small problem from you all, thank you so much

Thanks Herve5, I'll try to use the phone/external disk solution. I know there is - or once were, maybe 3 years ago - a mobile disk/device with card slots and a small screen to view all your saved pictures. Forgot the name, though. Never mind, I've got a phone and soon also an external disk. Thanks again for answering

Hello to all... I need help to figure out if it is possible to store my Q pictures on a mobile hard disc when travelling. No PC/ Mac, just the Q, a USB cable and a small hard disc. I've read about Freecom MG Mobile, but maybe it needs a go-between PC/Mac, info is scarce and shops can sell sand in Sahara Any ideas out there, please? Niels...

Mine is fitted with an Arca Swiss to be used with my Gitzo monopod. I imagine that all makes and plates can fit with no worries. I take it that that is what you asked about

I ordered mine june 13th from Meister Camera Berlin. They UPS it tomorrow...

I use a small Billingham insert in a small reporter bag, and a stiff leather wrist lanyard from Fast + Prime connected to a Black Rapid FastenR Hitch: FAST+PRIME- HAND-SEWN CASES FOR LEICA | Mono Wrist Lanyard Best regards from Niels...

With regards to the 18/3,8 I have had no problems at all. Buy the lens and the proper Leica filter to go with it, and off you go.
