new 35mm lux?

Or (actually, my own guess!) it could be that the front ring screws off to reveal an external thread for a metal hood, like the WATE, Super-Elmar, the 21/24 luxes and 24 Elmar, and all the Summarits. That seems to be Leica's "new concept" for hoods, rather than plastic clip-ons.

 

Good observation... I think is probable... the ring doesn't look "sliding" but could be indeed screw-removable... not clear, in the pic, if and how this operation would keep the front filter thread ...

This would confirm what Leicarumors.com wrote last Jan 11 ("Will have screw lens hood like the Elmar 24")

 

Have a look: New Leica 35mm Summilux Lens | Leica Rumors

 

If Leica were to introduce a new Summilux-M 28mm (asph), they would cover the f/1.4 speed from 21mm to 50mm ! Speaking of which, if you had a choice between a new Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 or a new Noctilux-M 35mm f/1 (!), which would you prefer?

Anyone here saved and thus can post a picture of this new breast ?

 

God I had to resist posting a breast in response.

 

For a short time it seems google has captured it... I don't know if it's google saving it in low-res or if the original was very small as I didn't see the original.
