Guest borge Posted January 22, 2013 Share #1 Â Posted January 22, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Does anyone have experience with this lens on a M Monochrom? I have seen som lovely B&W's shot with this lens on film so I am wondering how it will perform on a MM. Â I am currently considering a mint one with a serialnumber of 276xxxx which was manufactured in 1975/1976. Will this fit on a digital body without modification?

reinerv Posted January 22, 2013 Share #2 Â Posted January 22, 2013 Mine is 272xxxx and had to go to Leica for modification. I didn't try it with the Monochrom yet, no time/bad weather/headache. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbretteville Posted January 22, 2013 Share #3  Posted January 22, 2013 Børge, I have a 299xxxxx that went in for mod after I purchased it. There is a shroud behind the last element that on some of these are too high and catches on the lens throat on the M8 when focus gets to infinity. Not sure if that would be a problem on a full frame digital M as it isn't on the film Ms. Also not all of the 35/1.4 Hystericals have this issue on the M8.  We could always meet up and check, I'm in the Oslo area too.  Cheers, Carl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
