mwalker649 Posted February 15, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted February 15, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I did it. I sold my 5D, lenses, flash ect and bought a black M8, Leica 50 2.0 and 28 2.8. I had a D2 before and I never was satisfied with the Cannon gear, to big and bulkyfor me. I'm a bit concerned though I liked the wide 16-35L. Â I'm I going to be happy with the 28 f2.8 shooting landscapes? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

carstenw Posted February 15, 2007 Share #3 Â Posted February 15, 2007 I did the same, except that my first lens was the 50 Lux Asph. Congratulations! Â The 28 acts like a 35mm on the M8. It is sharp, but has a reputation for higher contrast than some other Leica lenses. I guess only you will know if it fits your purpose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted February 15, 2007 Share #4 Â Posted February 15, 2007 If you want to go wide, try it out with Cosina-Voigtlander lenses. They are excellent for the price, and won't break the bank. If you like it, you can always upgrade to the WATE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LichMD Posted February 15, 2007 Share #5 Â Posted February 15, 2007 M, you might want to look at Sean Reid's excellent review of the 28 range of lenses. He compares the elmarit, cron, Zeiss and CV lens with loads of great photos. Based on his review I decided to get the 28/2.0, a great lens. It's my bodycap. Sean's site is subscription, but a well invested 30 bucks. Â Welcome to ReidReviews Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalker649 Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share #6 Â Posted February 15, 2007 should I reconsider the 28 2.8? I'll check out Seans review. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
