Dan Ryan Posted June 11, 2011 Share #1 Posted June 11, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) I purchased this lens from Rick in Hamburg with a CLA by Reinhardt. It is shown on this thread: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-collectors-historica/169705-help-date-nickel-elmar-50-a.html Here are some samples. Rick - loving it. Would like to be able to try it on an M9:) shot with the new Portra 400 on a IIIf RD ST - it blows me away that something from 1932 can do this:- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. No Posted June 11, 2011 Share #3 Posted June 11, 2011 the elmar is a great construction! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Ryan Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share #4 Posted June 11, 2011 As you guessed Luigi I was raised on Nikkors and heard about the differences, but now I think I see it. The Summicron on the M4 is very clinical. This old thing really gets me. I think I'll go looking for a modern Elmar 50/2.8 Dan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
