I received a copy of the summilux 35mm pre-asph lens and noticed that it lacked a shroud or any metal rim to protect the rear element. While a "overly" protruding shroud may prevent proper function on some cameras, the lack of any protective shroud makes me concerned that the rear element will eventually be damaged. Looking at the back of the lens, I would not risk setting it down on a flat surface, but this may occur at some point. I am concerned that there was a shroud present at some point, but it was removed. If the shroud was removed it would be difficult to replace assuming that Leica does not stock parts for these vintage lenses. Having the part made would be challenging without the detailed specs and without knowing whether it threads into the space around the rear element. I'd just hate to start using this lens without adequate protection of the glass surface. Does anyone know if some of the summilux 35mm pre-aspherics were manufactured without any shroud or protective rim? I have not found any examples of this in my research, so I suspect its a missing part. Thanks for your thoughts.

Is there anyone who can tell me about the difference between summilux 35mm f/1.4 v1 early serial (170-) and late serial (200-)? I heard that summilux 35mm v1 early serial showed more glow effects, a better transparent color Summilux 35mm v1 later serial, however, showed better sharpness and contrast a little bit. Is this true?

One of the first B&W's with my new MP240, after the corrosion upgrade from my beloved M9P. I like the tone gradations delivered by this sensor too.

Hallo Genossen, ich fotografiere schon seid mehr als einem Jahr mit einer M9 und diversen Optiken im Portrait Bereich. Nun wollte ich auch in die legendäre Welt der 35mm-fotografie einsteigen und habe mir in den letzten 3 Wochen 3 Objektive zum Vergleich gekauft. 1) Summicron 2.0 35mm (aktuelle Version) - 1700 EUR 2) Summilux 1.4 35mm (BJ 1994) - 2300 EUR 3) Summilux 1.4 35mm (BJ 2010) - 2800 EUR Verlauf: 1) Summicron ist ein TOP Objektiv aber mir persönlich leider zu lichtschwach = verkauft 2) Summilux 35 (pre FLE) war sehr scharf, ohne dramatischen Focusshift und verdammt lichtstark.... aber leider in einem sehr schlechten Gesamtzustand = verkauft 3) Summilux (FLE), Top DEAL - 2800 EUR von einem erfahrenem Fotografen, super Zustand ... aber totaler out of focus bei Nah und Fern (bei offenen Blenden: 1.4 - 2.8). Ob wir da noch von einem "Focusshift" sprechen weiss ich leider nicht. Hatte Jemand auch solche Erfahrungen mit dem neuen FLE Summilux auf der M9? Was wird empfohlen? Verkauf? Service? ...
