andalus Posted April 24, 2012 Share #1 Â Posted April 24, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Anyone here know whether the 28 Summicron might sell for a premium to the black version? I have a mint silver one and am thinking of downsizing my kit, with M9, to just one lens -- the 50 Lux ASPH...because I want to buy a Nikon D800e, maybe. Â Perhaps this version of the 28 Summicron, which has been discontinued, is something of a rarity? Â Any comments welcome. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokoshawnuff Posted April 25, 2012 Share #2 Â Posted April 25, 2012 No logic behind it, but all the silver versions tend to command a bit of a premium (over the black) on ebay... Â Also as you said the silver cron 28mm is no longer in production, though there may still be a few new examples floating around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Doppel Posted April 25, 2012 Share #3  Posted April 25, 2012 Simply more difficult to find. A few start with lenses looking for luvley silver to match silver bodies, I did the same but ended up with all bar one black so decided to sell as I could replace with black at less money and silver are heavier  Horses for courses Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andalus Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share #4 Â Posted April 25, 2012 It seems the silver 28 is not heavier. It seems to aluminum rather than chromed brass. Not like the 50 lux silver. I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
