Is early days I realise, but I wonder if we could please have a thread devoted to third party lens performance on the SL please. In my case I would be interested in experiences with Zeiss F mount lenses (ZF/.2), particularly the 1.4/55 Otus, 1.4/85 Otus, and 2/135 Apo-Sonnar. But I also have a couple of C/Y lenses. I'm sure there are others here interested, as well as those with Canon and Nikkor glass. If I end up with and SL I will report first hand, but I haven't decided to pull the trigger yet (I had wished for higher resolution and IBIS), but there is a lot in this camera that appeals, including it looking like a good tool for some R glass I have. So, anyone with an SL and experience with third party lenses, please share your experiences. Thanks in advance.

Who will solve this one? I have attached an interesting photo of Winogrand working, taken by photographer Tod Papageorge in 1967. The problem is as follows: Winogrand is using two Leicas (I assume) - up to his eye is one with a Canon 35mm f/1.8 attached. Down towards his left hip is another camera with a mystery lens. Which one is it? As Papageorge took this picture, Winogrand had just finished taking one of his most famous photographs. Seemingly with a 35mm Canon (not the well known 28mm he often used, and perhaps even made famous). Also of interest, I have actually seen his contact print. The roll starts off in London, then BOOM, first strike back in Central Park gives an iconic photo. This should be fun!

Hallo! Ist da jemand unter Euch, der für Scannen von SW-Negativen den Canon CanoScan 9950F im erweiterten Modus benutzt? Ein Problem taucht immer wieder auf. Sofern Negative von mir korrekt belichtet und dann auch korrekt entwickelt worden sind, bewährt sich das Gerät hervorragend. Brauche ich aber eine Korrektur (Belichtung, Kontrast usw) durchzuführen, dann wirds schon hoffnungslos problematisch. Kurz und bündig: ich mach den Vorschau von allen 5 Negativstreifen. Im Vorschaufeld sehen die Miniaturen meistens gar nicht schlecht aus.(Bild 1) Würde ich sagen, wenn Helligkeit, Kontrast, usw. im Endeffekt dem entsprechen würde, was in der Vorschauphase zu sehen ist, hätte ich gegen das Gerät gar nix auszsusetzten. Aber nachdem ich das Vorschaubild gescannt habe, sieht das zu speicherne Bild dermaßen schrecklich aus, dass es keinen Sinn hat, es zu speichern. So versuche ich an der Belichtungskurve eigniges zu verbessern. Das Vorschaubild wirds dabei heller, einfach besser (Bild 2). Dann los mit dem Scannen, worauf es sich heraustellt, dass alle diese Einstellungen, die ich an der Kurve durchgeführt habe, gar nicht übernommen worden sind, bzw. das Bild sieht noch dunkler aus.(Bild 3) Als hätte ich an der Kurve gar nix hantiert. Und ja, jede Änderung an der Kurve bestätige ich natürlich mit der Taste "Bestätigt die entgültigen Ausgabe Einstellungen". Аber es hilft natürlich nicht. Habt ihr änhliche Erfahrungen?

Hi all! I have been testing the Commlite CM-EF-L autofocus adapter with several Canon EF lenses on my Leica CL, and I am glad to report that it works. As expected, AF-C and focus tracking is not supported, but the AF-S works reasonably well. Focusing speed and precision with most lenses is at almost native T/TL lenses level. So: -AF-S works (no tracking). Touch AF also works. -IS with Canon stabilized lenses works. -EXIF data is transferred correctly to the files, save for the F/1.2 that is reported as F/1.3 (something I had already seen with other third party AF adapters on Sony cameras). I used A and M modes, on Firmware 4.0. Adapter firmware is upgradeable via an USB port on the adapter itself. There are no new FW listed on Commlite’s site, and it worked right out of the box. The lenses that I tested, and worked, so far are: 14/2.8L-II, 16-35/4L-IS, 24/2.8 IS, 24/1.4L-II, 40/2.8 STM, 50/1.2L, 50/2.5 compact macro (with and without the Lifesize 1:1 converter), 85/1.2L-II and 100/2 USM. The only glitch I have experienced is that Battery level is not correctly reported to the camera, and the first time I mounted the adapter on the CL, I got a warning message about the “Camera possibly not displaying reliable battery charge levels with this lens” that did not repeat. In fact, after a hundred exposures with different lenses, the battery appeared as depleted. The workaround I found was shutting down the camera, taking off the battery, mount a native TL lens, put again the battery in and the charge was there again, correctly reported at about 2 / 3. During next week I will try to test the adapter with more Canon FF lenses, and EF-S APSc lenses. I am very interested to see how the compact EF-S 10/18 zoom and EF-S pancake 24/2.8 perform on the CL. So, after all the let down expectatives we CL users held on the MC-21 adapter by Sigma, I am glad to share that there’s still a light on the path to use many more lenses options!

However, whereas the Canon F-1 Olive Drab retired long ago, the new Leica Reporter will be used...

Dear SL-S users! I am a family photographer in the Mexican Riviera Maya. Colors pop, lightning is almost always beautiful. Nice soft pastel tones dominate the mornings and evenings. I am quite happy with my Canon R6 but just recently my 35mm 1.4 ii gives up on me and I am considering a change to the SL-S. I do have an M10 with a Summicron 50 f2 and Summicron 28mm f2, and even if I personally like the images that I get with the M System I never use it in family sessions as the pictures and colors always turn out a bit "harder" over the Canon colors that work so well where I live. My question to you: Do you recommend me switching to the SL System? Maybe you did sessions of that sort in comparable areas and can share photos? Thanks a lot and happy new year!
