  1. I have just posted a new blog post at https://gerrywalden.wordpress.com/2016/09/05/just-one-roll-of-film/ which sabot a roll of film I shot in 2003 using a Leica M6 and (I think) a Summicron f2. It features 9 images in mono of a Mela in Southampton. Please take a look. Gerry
  2. I am a bit lost with what i have read about the radioactive summis. What is the deal with them? Are they more trouble than they are worth because of the browning? How about resale? Do people avoid them?
  3. http://www.photoscala.de/2016/11/15/leica-stellt-apo-summicron-m-1250-mm-asph-in-rot-vor/ Nächstes Jahr als Lenny Kravitz- Edition mit abgeschabter Eloxalschicht für wiederum 1800.- mehr :-)
  4. Some time ago I started a blog (www.mbphotox.wordpress.com) about adapted 50mm lenses on my Canon DSLR. A Leica 50 was on my wishlist for half a year and when I finally went out to buy one, I came home with an Elmarit-R 135mm f/2.8 because the Cron had been picked up by another guy right before I arrived at the store. A few months later, I found a great offer online and bought an Elmarit-R 28mm and finally also the Summicron-R 50mm I had been looking for. Having three lenses, I figured "why not get back into shooting film?", and so I started looking for a suitable Leica R body. The SL2 was not an option since all my lenses are R-only, and the R6 was simply too damn expensive. R3 to R5 it was.. I stumbled upon this expensive offer that had been online for weeks, by a guy who wanted to sell his pristine Summicron-R 90mm together with a near-mint Leica R5... I ended up talking him down by 20% and bought the package Loaded a roll of Superia 200 last night and am looking forward to the results. Here are some pics (more can be found on the blog) The baseplate shows slight signs of wear, the brass shines through at some areas, but other than that it's perfect. My lenses, without the 90mm, I've still got to take pictures of that one. But it only arrived 2 days ago.
  5. ... oder: Plätzchen backen mit der Oma. Leica M8 mit Summicron-M 2/50 (IV) (Mensch, ist diese Linse toll!)
  6. Lomochrome purple film, R3, 50mm Summicron.
  7. Hello! This is my first post to this forum and what better way to start it off but with asking for thoughts about a M3 with a 50/2 Dual Range Summicron I have the opportunity to buy locally. I currently have an M6 with a Zeiss 35mm 2.8 that I love, but I have been eyeing an M3 for quite a while. I only got a brief look at it the other day and was able to handle it for about a minute or two before I had to go. The viewfinder seems bright with a little dust and it seems to focus properly ( non of this is 100% since I was only able to spend a little time with it). I cant really remember what shape the metal of the body was in but I do know that the the leatherette will need replaced.I also did not have a chance to inspect internals or shutter speeds. The lens seems good and clear as well, no goggles though. It is a single stroke late model. I will be going back by today to pick up some film and plan to take a better look at it and hopefully take some pictures. The asking price for both together is $600.00, Is this something that I should not pass up? I will post pictures once I take a second look at it. Thanks!

  9. Hi, I'm a newbie (to Leicas and this forum) from Scotland. In the last 6 months I've traded-in all my Canon DSLR gear for a M7 and 50mm Summicron, and just last week I've picked up a M3. Apart from being a bit dirty inside, which I wasn't expecting seeing as I'd bought it from an authorised Leica dealer, it is in great condition with no obvious issues with patch alignment, shutter speeds etc. I put my Summicron on it today and noticed that the patches don't move through the full range of lens focusing distances; the infinity end seems ok but at the close focusing end the patches won't focus any closer than approx 3 or 4 feet i.e. as I move the focus ring past 4 feet towards the closest setting the patches stop moving. On my M7 the patches cover the full focusing range of the lens. As I said I'm a newbie to Leica and rangefinder cameras in general so just wanted to ask am I missing something obvious here or do I have an issue? Thanks in advance if anyone can help. Cheers, Liam.
  10. Hallo, Ich habe mir vor ein paar Tagen mein erstes Leica Objektiv gekauft. Es handelt sich um das Summicron 35mm Asph gebraucht und wurde auch über mehrere Hände gereicht. Nun ist meine Frage: kann man bei so einem Objektiv die Linse austauschen ? Besteht die Möglichkeit das man die Asph Linse mit einer normalen Linse ausgetauscht hat? Wie kann man am besten nachschauen ob es sich um die originale Leica Asph Linse handelt? Ich habe gerade ein Video gesehen wo jemand ein Leica M Objektiv von innen reinigt . Dazu nimmt er alles auseinander und als er die Linse rausnahm viel mir das ein . LG
  11. habe ein Paar Elpro in einer Auktion erworben, die leider auf o.g. Linse nicht passen. Wurden als passend angeboten, sind aber zu klein. ELPRO VIa+b haben einen zu kleinen Filterdurchmesser zum anschrauben, werde sie wohl verkaufen. Welches ELPRO passt wirklich? Danke für einen Tip.
  12. Hello, I noticed my 50mm Summicron is starting to lightly haze. I don't know if it is because the weather in New York is now amazingly hot, and sticky, and the lens is nearly 45 years old and has never been serviced because it was essentially new in box when I got it. I guess my main question is honestly where is the place to get this cleaned as best as possible? I would like to put an end to this ASAP. I know about Sherry and Don, but would sending it to Leica NJ cost about the same amount or a little more? Thank you in advance, Greg
  13. One of the problems of being an old dinosaur is that technology rolls on and passes me by. To this end, although my only concession to modern technology is an M9-P, I'm still using my old 35/50/90 pre- ASPH Summicron lenses from my M6 days. Unfortunately, LR6 does not have these in its lens pre-sets. Is anyone else in this position? What is your work-around or are you just using the ASPH equivalent profiles? Many thanks
  14. Greeting Knowledgeable Gentlemen, I have a curious little accessory here. From the waist down, it's a normal lens hood fitting the 3.5cm & 5cm Summicron, Elmar, etc. Instead of a normal hood, however, it has a male 49mm thread on the front. It's marked "42" on the rear chrome surface that faces the camera. Please help!
  15. Hallo Zusammen, zufällig habe ich bei meinem Leica Händler folgende Kombinationen heute in der Hand gehabt: Kombi 1: Leica M3 mit Leica Summicron-M 35mm mit Brille (V1) und Kombi 2: Leica M4-P mit Zeiss Biogon 35mm 2,8 (Neuware) Preislich liegen die Kombis nah beieinander. Jetzt meine Frage. Ich möchte in das M-System analog einsteigen. Bei Kombi 1 stört mich nur die Brille. Bei Kombi 2 nur das es ein Zeiss Objektiv ist, obwohl ich die Qualität von Zeiss kenne. Denn eigentlich finde ich gehört an eine Leica ein Leica Objektiv. Was würdet Ihr wählen und warum? Beide Kombis sind voll funktionstüchtig und die gebrauchten Komponenten würde ich als A-B Zustand bewerten. Danke für eure Anregungen und Meinungen. Besten Gruß und allzeit gut Licht Michael
  16. I just bought a 35mm Summicron pre-asph 7-element (aka Bokeh king), but I prefer a round hood. Some sellers claims the 12504 hood compatible with this lens and some claims not, I'm so confused.
  17. Hallo. Ich suche eine Leitz-Linse Objektiv, Summicron M 35. Nicht neu. ist 800 eur ein akzeptabler Preis? Ich habe eins, gebraucht, mit einem kleinen Flaum im inneren gesehen. der Verkäufer sagt, ist ein Problem. freundliche Grüße Ann
  18. Hallo. Ich bin neu hier, 55 Jahre alt und knipse gut die Hälfte davon mit verschiedenen M- und (früher) R-Leicas. Und falle gleich mal mit einer Frage ins Haus ... :-) Wenn ich auf die IIIf das versenkbare 5cm-Summicron aufschraube, dann ist der Indexstrich für die Entfernungseinstellung nicht genau oben (wenn man die Kamera von oben anschaut), sondern ein paar Grad weiter nach links verschoben. Nein, ich habe das Objektiv nicht wie ein Schmied festgedreht ... Die Fokussierung sitzt jedoch auf dem Punkt - wenn der Fokusring auf Unendlich einrastet, sind auch die Teilbilder präzise verschmolzen. Ist diese Verschiebung des Indexpunktes bei Schraubleicas was normales, kann man das mit einfachen Mitteln beheben, ohne dass man gleich ein paar Hunderter nach Wetzlar überweisen darf? Oder ist das lediglich ein Schönheitsfehler, der nur Ästheten auf den Keks geht?
  19. Dear Friends: In the late 80's (when I was a kid) my father taught me how to use the Leica R4. I use the M-system these days but for last few weeks I have been wanting to make a comeback to film photography. I recently bought a used R4 with Summicron-R 50 mm lens. The lens looks great (I tested on Leica M10 with adapter). However, when I got the negatives developed and scanned, something strange showed up in the photographs. I am attaching a few examples. Can someone with an experienced eye help me figure out what is going on so that I can fix this problem! Your help is appreciated.
  20. Hi folks, I was in the Leica store to check out the newly released SL Summicron 90 + 75 mm lenses; they are quite nice and handling is superb. I was asking the sales rep about the dimensions of the later to be released 50 and 35 mm lenses and he answered that they would basically share the same dimensions in order to have a "uniform user experience". For me, this is a little bit of a bummer, as I think that size does matter, also on a pro system. How come, that a 50 mm and 35 mm f2 are 10 x 7 cm large? I would much appreciate, if the lenses would be smaller (shorter), this would make the SL much more usable as a travel and street camera. Ideally, they could share the same 67 mm filter threat, but be much shorter, say 5 cm. What do others think?
  21. Question for those who had their flare prone APO 50 modified by Leica. If you could chose again, would you (and why) prefer to have the original lens back and work with the flare limitation ?
  22. Hey guys, I recently acquired a cron and decided to do some test shots with it. Was checking if there was any problems with regards to front or back focus but saw that wide open it wasnt that sharp with regards to the center object that I focused on. I attached a photo of the test I did + a cropped photo of the battery I focused on but was not sharp or there was blurriness on the letters. The shot though was done in my dining table with artificial light, f2 ISO100, 2 sec timer to avoid camera shake cause I dont have a tripod at the moment. I'll definitely shoot during the day when the sun is up to see if theres a difference but just wanted post this and hear your thoughts about this. Maybe the lens needs a calibration or something of the type. Kinda new to Leica lenses as this is my first M lens. Thank you
  23. Hallo zusammen, da mir ein Leica Macro-Adapter-M zu teuer ist, einfache Nahlinsen aber zu unscharf sind, habe ich mir einen Achromaten gekauft mit 5 Dioptrien. Ich fand das fokusieren über Kontrastkanten im LV-Modus aber zu ungenau und zu schwer zu erkennen. Mit der 5-fach Lupe im LV-Modus jedoch kam ich gut zurecht. Anbei eine Aufnahme im Makro-Modus und Blende 5.6, wobei ich den geringen Schärfentiefebereich sehr interessant finde, da der Hintergrund sehr schön weichgezeichnet ist. Viele Grüße, Andreas.
