The vintage "character" look is exploding heavily on the silver screen... Dune 2 and Poor Things both used Petzval 57 lenses for brutal bokeh swirl, the former movie used IronGlass (Soviet rehoused MIR, Jupiter, Tair and Helios lenses) and the latter movie even did a full on circular fisheye in many scenes. Grain, smeared edges of de-tuned anamorphs (like those custom built by ARRI for Grieg Fraser's The Batman), Zack Snyder rehoused the Canon 50mm f0.95 “Dream Lens“ which was - used ONLY WIDE OPEN - the heart and soul of his set on Army of the Dead... Flaws and imperfections of lens characters are hitting Hollywood DoP's hearts big time. Time for that swirly bokeh of Summarit 50/1.5's wide open look... What is your favorite ultra character Leica M or LTM mount lens? Mine must be this one.

Who's tried the Leica Summilux 50 PRE-ASPH Version II on an M240 ? Would you kindly share your experience (and maybe even some images)? I would sure like to know how this lens does with the new Leica M. I know Summilux 50 ASPH 1.4 is amazing - I've seen the pictures! And while I'm sure that the pre-asph ver 2 is not "as sharp" and perhaps doesn't have the contrast of the ASPH model ... there's just something about how the pre-asph lenses "draw" that is so compelling ... that and the painterly character of the bokeh they produce. I imagine the pre-asph lenses at 1.4 are less sharp in the corners but wondering if that their reduced resolution might create an interesting transition effect moving from blur to sharpness? If you've been shooting with this lens on the m240, what are your thoughts? Anyways, love to hear what you guys think who've tried this combo.
