  1. Every user of Summicron-C 40 / M-Rokkor 40 / Voigtlander Nokton Classic 40 should have known the 35mm framelines can be activated by not fully rotate the lens to click when mounting, because there is a little bit of extrusion on the part of the flange for frameline activation. The main finding and conclusion from me is: this method works if the lens focus cam is the parallel style, which means the CLE version M-Rokkor (with serial numbers on barrel) and Voigtlander 40/1.4 benefit from this trick. When the focus cam is parallel, it couples with the lever in body by purely back and forth motions. So rotating the lens a bit backward does not affect the focus cam positions. On the other hand, the sloped focus cam used on Summicron-C 40 and the early M-Rokkor 40 made for CL brings trouble when you do the incomplete mounting trick. The coupling lever does not stay in place once you rotate the lens: as the focus cam is sloped, the lever will contact with the lower part of the cam, indicating a closer position to the rangefinder. It means the lens now is unable to be focused at infinity position, most obviously, and always focus a bit closer through out the 0.8m-infinity range.
  2. Hi all, i'm new to the forum because, hopefully, i'm getting my first Leica this friday. Can anybody give things to look out for or pay special attention too... it comes with 2 extra batteries, a grip op some sorts and a protection film, the seller has invited me to come over and take a look at it, so i was hoping for some tips from you guys... so right now!!! Cheers from Belgium!

  4. Hi guys, I have recently purchased a very good condition used Leica M8 and a Voigtlander 35 f1.4 lens (which was as far as my budget will stretch at the moment). Now admittedly this is the first time I have used Leica cameras but so far i'm disappointed with its overall IQ and performance. I realise that to get the full potential I probably need leica glass on the front of it but i'm seriously considering taking this camera back. If anyone has any advice,tips or techniques to get the most out of this camera or certain user profiles that would be much appreciated. I would love to keep it and get the most out of it but at the moment it doesnt seem much better then some compacts. Thanks!
  5. Hello, I just got my Dlux 4 the other day. One of the main reasons why I bought it was the fantastic reviews of users shooting in low light conditions. Granted im still toying around with this beast but the initial shots I've taken have all been a bit soft. I've played around with different settings but I haven't found one that gets me a nice crisp shot indoors with min lighting. What's the recommended settings that I should use to get sharp shots in low light settings (without a tripod)?
