itsjakob Posted March 18, 2011 Share #1 Posted March 18, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi all Just a quick and easy question for someone to answer! I have a M8 and when I put the 50mm Summicron on it, it leans forward when standing it on the base plate. This didn't happen with my 28mm Elmarit. I am going to buy a M6 (TTL), and want to know, does it stand flat when it has a 50mm lens on it? Seems from flickr it does but I thought I'd check, Thansk for any feedback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

too old to care Posted March 18, 2011 Share #4 Posted March 18, 2011 Same setup as mine, except my lens is black. I understand the chrome ones are heavier. Anyway, mine just barely stays level on a hard surface. On the slightest soft surface it falls forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
