Superzot Posted January 25, 2013 Share #1 Posted January 25, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Good morning to everybody. I just registered myself on this forum, and think it is the right time to introduce myself. I am an amateur photographer from Italy and am totally new to Leica world, even though I have had some experience with Canon and Nikon cameras and lenses. A few days ago I bought my first Leica on Ebay: it is a R4S, used but it seems to be in excellent condition, and I bought it at a very interesting price. Now it is time to think about a nice lens for it: I guess it would be nice to find a good 35 or 50 mm lens to start with. Any suggestion is definitely welcome. :-) Ciao. Giuliano.

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted January 25, 2013 Share #2 Posted January 25, 2013 Welcome. A 50 mm SUMMICRON- R- lens would be perfect for a start with the 60 mm Makro as an alternative in case you like this range as a photographer. But have a look at the zoomrange as well: the 21- 35 mm, the 28-70 mm and the 35- 70 mm zoomlenses are most interesting and useful starting options for a lenscollector.

valerio Posted January 25, 2013 Share #3 Posted January 25, 2013 Ciao Giuliano, I'm an Italian living in the UK and I recently bought a Leica as well, though an M6. I used to have an R4s until a couple of years ago or so. If I may recommend a starting lens, I would go for a Summicron-R 50mm f/2. It was my standard lens and I hardly used any other lens. Take care, Valerio Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
