In a recent interview in Austrian Der Standard Peter Karbe was asked which camera and lens would be his preferred choice. The answer was "not an easy one", but it would be M11 and APO-Summicron 35. "STANDARD: One last question: If you had to choose a combo, what would be your camera and your lens of choice? Karbe: The M11 and APO-Summicron 35mm. But that's one of those questions... which of your children do you like best? If I had to choose, I would use this combination." Here is the link to the full (unlocked) Peter Karbe Der Standard interview (in German) by Mickey Manakas, where he speaks about the compromise in building the Noctilux f/0.95 and its evident flaws, the "Leica Look" myth, his views on smartphone photography, his pride in personally calculating the optical formula for Summilux 50 ASPH and many other cool topics: https://www.derstandard.at/story/2000144541043/leitender-optikexperte-bei-leica-wir-waren-vorreiter-bei-der-digitalisierung

Motivations After purely shooting on digital for 5 months, I shift a bit back to film because my dad has the passion to develop and scan film after his retirement (He now develops C41, ECN-2 and E-6!). Also I bought a CLA’d silver M4 recently and now I enjoy it more than my black M10-P. I mainly use the 35mm or 40mm focal lengths. I have a LLL 35/2 8E replica and the Minolta 40/2. Both of them are excellent on digital and film. As I mainly shoot with digital before, the F2 is enough to cover my needs in indoor and streets at night. Now with film, I’d like to push 5207 or 5219 to 800 to maintain my ability to do street photography in city night. I am confident to zone focus at F2.8 now but at night even at F2 I have to use slower shutter speeds than 1/125, which is hard to freeze the motions. I am considering to try a F1.4 lens. My thoughts about the F1.4 35mm lenses… Summilux-es are too much for my wallet to afford currently. I know the FLE and ASPH luxes are great lenses in IQ but they are also much bulkier than the F2-crons IMO. The compactness is an important consideration for me. The Nokton 35/1.4 is a famous lens—for its budget friendliness and the debate over its IQ and focus shift issues, I guess? And its focus shift make it a less proper lens on the digital sensor. But if I pair it with my M4 it would be fine right? The next doubt is the build quality of this lens. I’m afraid buying a brand new one and find it does not focus properly…and I am totally fine with a pre-owned one if it has been proven to have no issues about focusing. -
Nach der fruchtbaren Diskussion um die 50mm Objektive hätte ich gerne Eure Meinungen über die 35mm Objektive gewusst. In einem anderen Faden (Vergleich 28mm zu 35mm Summicrone) geht es schon um das Thema, aber im wesentlichen beschränken wir uns auf die Summicrone. Ich persönlich habe noch keinen richtigen Zugang zu den 35mm Objektiven gefunden. Entweder ziehe ich mit 28mm los (Q), oder ich bin mit 50mm unterwegs. Ich habe ein Summicron ASPH, mittlerweile über 25 Jahre alt von einem guten Freund geerbt, ein Summaron 2,8 mit Brille für meine M3 von meiner Mutter übernommen, schön scharf im Zentrum und die Farben gefallen mir auch, aber mit der Brille nicht wirklich schön und recht klobig und ein Schraub-Summaron 3,5 für meine Schraub-Leicas, dessen Schärfe zu wünschen übrig lässt. Um mich mit der Brennweite etwas mehr anzufreunden, habe ich das Summicron jetzt häufiger dabei und versuche, damit auch Portraits bzw. Menschen aufzunehmen. Wie sind Eure Erfahrungen? Ich weiß, dass viele die 35mm Brennweite am liebsten auf ihre Touren mitnehmen. Ich habe aber noch keine Begründung dafür gehört. Und dann die Summilux-Baureihe, die nochmal besondere Eigenschaften mitbringen, ist ein ganz eigenes Thema... Ich freue mich auf Eure Beiträge!

Hi Guys! So my birthday is nearly coming and I finally have the courage to buy my very first Leica camera. I’m choosing between the M10 and the M10-P. Can you help me narrowing down what to get. I’m a huge 35mm fuji shooter so I’m having a hard time choosing between the lux and cron. And is it true that Hong Kong sells cheaper Leica’s? Please help me! I need help badly! Thank you -
Hello everyone, I have a question about the dimensions of the Leica 11310 lens with the (square) hood mounted, I think the model is 12524 and/or 12526. Currently, I use a Biogon 2/35 which I love but sometimes I find the lens protrusion from camera body quite long. The lens alone protrudes 1.75" from the camera body; with the UV filter and hood mounted, it protrudes to 2.4375" (7/16) from the camera body which is fine in some situations but unwieldy in others. The hood and UV filter are used to protect from bumps. I had the chance to mount an 11310 to my camera which seems to protrude about an inch from the body but at the time the vendor did not have the hood so I had no way of even guesstimating where it would end up. Can anyone who has this lens + hood combo provide a measurement?

SOS HELP!!! I dropped my Leica M4 and according to the NYC Camera Doctor repair team, the prism that creates the ghost image in the rangefinder is dislocated and needs to be replaced. They suggested that I send it directly into Leica for repairs, becuase the rangefinder is a complicated mechanism they wern't equipt to fix. They also let me know that Leica, located in New Jersey, dosen't do specific repairs and will want to do a full tune-up. Money is a concern, and I'm not prepared to pay $1000-ish if I can at all avoid it. I just want my range-finder to be functional. Has anyone had rangefinder work done, espeically on an M4? Would you advise having this work done by Leica or an outside repair person, such as DAG? Any experience or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. E

The focus post is a pain. It unscrews for removal which means one should be able to screw in a focus tab. I asked Gandy at Cameraquest who suggested someone could 3D print one. Does anyone here have expertise with doing so?

I am purchasing my first Leica! The M10-p. I was wondering which lens should I go with (current version brand new), the 35mm Summilux or 35mm Summicron. I do not consider the $ what so ever. Why go with one over the other? Is the Summilux strictly better but a matter of $$? Mostly street & reportage-style photography

I heard a rumor in January that Leica was making a 35mm Noctilux lens. Was curious if anyone had heard anything more about this? Although I’m happy with my 35mm Summicron I think a Noctilux would be super cool to add to my bag. The size of it would be my only concern, as the bigger lenses aren’t appealing to me.

Hello, I’m sure this topic has been discussed in the past, but I haven’t found it per se in the forum: if present, could you point me to it? Anyway, I am looking at acquiring a Leica 35mm lens to go with my 50mm Summilux from 1988 (is that ver. 2?). Image quality is great with most lenses from Leica, it’s the character that changes, and I could be as happy with a modern as with a classic look - although keeping a similar character to the Mandler era Summilux could be a plus. I’m not worried about maximum speed, but I was hoping to be at least at Summicron speed. My main concern is not to have to battle too much with focus shift, because I want to use the full range of aperture values, but also shoot wide open for available light. That means that a Summarit would be a bit of a compromise for speed. Keep in mind that I can’t afford anything close to the Summilux FLE pricewise, my budget doesn’t stretch that much at all. Any advice? Thanks in advance!! -
Hi to everyone here, I currently owned M6 and MP (type 240) by nature, i usually like shooting at 35 mm focal length. I am aiming to upgrade my summicron asph to a summilux which 35mm summilux lens will be the ‘one lens’that would fit with my two camera bodies?(digital and film) I will be studying abroad( in edinburgh), so i would like to hear thoughts and comments from fellow experienced users in this forum. Thank you

Finally "Fujifilm Co., Ltd. announced on June 10 the development of the black-and-white film Neopan 100 ACROS II. It plans to release 35mm size and 120 size in the fall of 2019. The sale price is undecided. Sensitivity ISO 100 black and white film. The company ended black-and-white film sales in the autumn of 2018 due to reduced demand and the difficulty of obtaining raw materials, but after receiving strong demand for continued sales mainly from enthusiasts and young people of the SNS generation, It is said that they have been studying for the reopening. The company developed Acros II by researching substitutes for raw materials that became difficult to obtain and reviewing the manufacturing process to match the new raw materials. Compared with the conventional product "Neopan 100 ACROS", the gradation of the highlight part is designed to be sharp and it is possible to reproduce three-dimensional gradation. In addition, the world's highest level of graininess is realized with the unique "Super Fine-Σ particle technology" (a technology that can control the size and composition of silver particles and improve the print quality of images), emphasizing the contour of the subject with high sharpness" https://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/1189352.html

Hi everyone, First post. Hoping to gain some insight and see if I could get some advice on an old M3 system I uncovered from my basement after many years of storage and basically forgotten about. I stopped using the camera in the early 90's. I first purchased this camera along with all the accessories in 1971 and enjoyed using it for over 20 years. I was planning on having the camera body serviced, but I am not sure about the lens. Any suggestions and advice would be welcomed. Thanks for reading!

The Leica Elmarit-R 35mm f2.8 could have a very short focusing distance, I recently found it could give some quite nice shots on flowers. I put some other shots at BigBigLens.com - Leica.
