Dear all, I am currently making a big part of my photos with my M(240) + 50/0.95 (also using the 75/1.4) with the 1,4* viewfinder magnifier. In low light I 'd like to have more clarity. I am considering the M10 and wonder if the better viewfinder of the M10 (particularly brightness) is still much better than the M(240) with the viewfinder magnifier (as you need to use an adapter to screw it on, do you reduce the advantage ?) Do any of you have experience with that ? thanks Didier

Afternoon everyone I've been using an M9 with a 50 Summicron for just under a month now. I occasionally have problems focussing, (pictures sometimes aren't as sharp as they should be) partly I think 'cause I'm as blind as a bat and wear glasses. Quick question - would a 1.25 magnifier help? Worth popping into a dealer to try one? Thanks K

Hello, I posted this question in the german forum also, but in german language. I use 50mm lenses nearly exclusively (sometimes 40mm also). But I'm always positively surprised, when I look through my Bessa R3A viewfinder. It has 1.0x magnification, is bright and clear. In any other aspects I really prefer Leica Ms. I always frame and shot with both eyes open, so a 1.0x viewfinder is essential for me. There are several ways to reach this and I hope some of you got some hints for me: - Has anyone a 0.72x Leica with an original 1.4x magnifier? Is the 50mm frame visible without moving the eye? - Has anyone a 0.72x Leica with a third party 1.35x magnifier? Is the 50mm frame visible without moving the eye? - Has anyone a 0.85x Leica with an original 1.25x magnifier? Is the 50mm frame visible without moving the eye? - Has anyone a 0.85x Leica with a third party 1.25x magnifier? Is the 50mm frame visible without moving the eye? I have a 0.85x Leica M6 with a third party 1.15x magnifier. Framing with both eyes open works great, but I'm not satisfied with the optical quality. But my dealer offered me an inspection and replacement. When I got the part back, I report you. Nevertheless I would be very pleased to get some hints and experiences Danke, Gottlieb

Hallo, ich nutze fast ausschließlich 50mm Objekitve (ganz selten 40mm) und bin leider immer mehr als positiv überrascht, wenn ich durch den riesigen hellen und extrem klaren Sucher meiner Voigtländer bessa R3A blicke. Alles andere sagt mir an den Leica Ms jedoch mehr zu. Vorallem aber das leise Auslösegeräusch des Tuchverschlusses. Da ich mit beiden Augen offen den Ausschnitt wähle und dazu einen nahezu 1,0x Sucher benötige meine Fragen: - Hat jemand eine 0.72x Leica mit 1.4x Sucherlupe? Sieht man den 50mm Leuchtrahmen, ohne mit dem Auge nach Links und Rechts zu luken? - Hat jemand eine 0.72x Leica mit 1.35x Sucherlupe? Sieht man den 50mm Leuchtrahmen, ohne mit dem Auge nach Links und Rechts zu luken? - Hat jemand eine 0.85x Leica mit original Leica 1.25x Sucherlupe? Sieht man den 50mm Leuchtrahmen, ohne mit dem Auge nach Links und Rechts zu luken? - Hat jemand eine 0.85x Leica mit nachgebauter 1.25x Sucherlupe? Sieht man den 50mm Leuchtrahmen, ohne mit dem Auge nach Links und Rechts zu luken? Ich selbst habe eine 0.85x Leica mit 1.15x Sucherlupe. Ist super, aber ich bin mit der Qualität der Lupe nicht zufrieden, vielleicht habe ich aber auch ein schlechtes Stück erwischt. Der Händler bietet mit jedenfalls an, es zu prüfen und tauschen. Wenn es wieder da ist berichte ich mehr, Trotzdem wäre ich dankbar, wenn mir ein paar Besitzer dieser Lupen hier ihre Erfahrung schildern könnten. Danke, Gottlieb

Hello folks, I followed this forum for several months – and now I joined "the club" by receiving my steelgray M9 - finally. ) As first lens I bought a second hand Noctilux1.0/50. I know: not the easiest starting point, but coming from Canon 5D MkII (which I will keep for T/S architecture and video work), I know for sure, that I love to shoot minimal DOF (85/1.2 and 35/1.4 on my 5D). As second lens I ordered the new Summilux 35/1.4. Now my questions: I'm thinking of buying two accessories for the M9 and need some advice: 1.) MS MAG x1.35 by Japan Exposure: I need an diopter to focus precisely wide open, and I think, the Magnifier should help further. Is the light meter in the viewfinder still visible with the x.135 – or how does it change? 2.) Thumbs Up: The Noctilux is quite heavy and Thumps Up should help me to hold the camera more relaxed and stable. I'd like to buy the steel gray EP-1. There is a offer on the bay by popflash.photo888. Are they recommendable? On machtechnical.com there are only black ones. Is there any difference? Thanks a lot for your help, Ralf
