Hello, I am still evaluating if a SL is a good investment for my big collection of old R lenses. With the objects I photograph I use mainly the Macro and light Tele lenses: 60mm, 100mm, 135mm, 180mm I have almost not been using my all time favorite lens the 100mm/2.8 Apo Macro since 10 years (digital age) which I feel is a very big loss. The SL will be a fine investment if I can finally use this lens again for "daily work". So I am not interested to know how the latest AF equipment works (which I find too expensive and much too bulky for most work or for fun, probably because I prefer fixed length lenses). I am looking for people with experience (and maybe fun) to use the 90's R lenses (that not so long ago were regarded as top). I have invested much more into the R system than in M lenses, and I assume there must be many more people with the same problem. So I am looking for experiences with R-lenses with the SL, mainly for Macro use and for light Tele. If you can share your fotos even better. Imagine that you have a complete R collection, but little money to buy new equipment - so is the Leica SL worth the enormous price to reactivate the R system ? The 60, 100, 135 and 180 were the bread and butter lenses. Can they be that again with the Leica SL ? By the way, the Leica M 240 is definitely not worth the trouble (to put these R lenses in front of it) even if officially supported. Thanks for any responses.

On an elderly US convertible that is used (oddly enough) as an eye-catcher in a public garden in Spain. M240, 60mm Macro Elmarit-R.

Hallo zusammen! Ich habe kürzlich ein Leica Objektiv Macro-Elmarit 60mm, F/2.8 gekauft. Mein allererstes Leica Objektiv. Die Vorfreude war von kurzer Dauer. Als ich das Paket geöffnet habe, war es voll mit einem roten, klebrigen Pulver. Ich wollte es schon zurückschicken. Der Verkäufer meinte aber, dieses Pulver sei völlig in Ordnung, es sei da um "die Innen-Temperatur des Objektivs" zu gewährleisten. Ich sollte es einem Spezialisten zeigen, er würde mir das schon bestätigen. Und deswegen wende ich mich heute an euch. So sieht es aus: Dieses Pulver soll keine schädliche Wirkung auf das Objektiv haben. Ich sollte es nur entfernen, und alles sei wieder in Ordnung. Stimmt es was der Verkäufer meint? Vielen Dank im voraus für jede Hilfe. Antonio Martino

Some friends and I met out to try our hands at photographing indoor soccer--wowza--that was tough. Still though, I managed to get a few images I was happy with. More photos at: for the fun of it-indoor soccer Midwest Editorial Photo: Troy Freund Troy
