Hi, I have a Leica M-A typ127 and I've been using 35mm focal lens since I bought the camera. Today, I just mounted a Summilux 50mm ASPH lens to the M-A and then I noticed that the image frame was still 35/135mm, but the lever was changed to 50/75mm's position correctly. I also tried a 28mm lens, the frame was still 35/135mm but the position of lever was changed to 28/90mm. Did I miss something? Any comments/suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks a lot! -N

Hello, new to the forum, new to leica! I own my black m-a for a month now and I absolutely love it. Just finished my 10th roll. Looking forward to taking part in the forum, but I am starting with a problem sorry. There is one little thing I can´t get to work (Spent at least 15 Exposures on it: I own a Flash Q Q20 from my digital days and i cant get it to work with the M-A. The strange thing: The flash fires when the film is not cocked and the shutter doesn't fire. When I cock the film and take an exposure the flash just wont fire. 1. Went to the leica shop and tried it with several new leica flashes. It fires when cocked and when not. 2. Checked some youtube videos - There are people successfully using the Q20 with their M6 or M-P, they even recommend it. 3 Checked the Q20 settings in falsh mode it should just work. 4. Tried it with the flash sync 1/50 setting and faster times And now the strangest thing - Occasionally, like every 3rd time I try it, it works. Am I studip or is the fals just not working with the m-a and I have to get an old leica flash? Any recommedation?
