Popular Post stray cat Posted May 5, 2021 Popular Post Share #75801 Posted May 5, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Continuing on what has been a bit of a Greek theme on the last page or so, one from the morgue. I remember standing there, thinking I’d take a picture of the decidedly cubist buildings, when I heard a “clip-clop, clip-clop” which seemed to be coming forwards, so I thought I’d wait.

It can seem so ugly and repulsive, but yet, the sort of thing that archeologists pray for when they unearth the relics of past societies. Is that a tube of glue stuffed into the crack on the bottom of the photo? Thanks for the photos. Best, Wayne 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a certain irony in posting a shot here taken with the Nikon F2, given that many consider the F and then the F2 the cameras that sank Leica as a first choice for reportage. I used Nikons for years before I discovered the joys of the light weight and superb lenses of the Leica Ms, starting with an M2 before the M8 arrived (put an M2 or M9 next to a F4 or D700 and consider which you would rather carry around all day). I dumped nearly all my film-era Nikon lenses after testing them on digital with one exception: the Micro-Nikkor 3.5/55. Put this on a digital SL and you have something quite remarkable. I swapped the Nikkors for Leica R-lenses which are superb on digital and more recently -- after looking back and considering that film has a "look" that is quite different from digital -- on a Leica R5. While R-lenses can be adapted to Nikon (try a Leitaxed Summicon on an F for a very interesting experience), the Nikkors can't go the other way on Leica film cameras which is a shame when it comes to the Micro-Nikkor. Of course there are the Macro-Elmarits and I have to admit to not having tried one (compare the prices they fetch with good examples of the Micro-Nikkors), so all I can say is that if there is one Nikon lens to hold on to, it is the Micro-Nikkor. Which brings us full circle back to the dilemma (on a Leica site): how to demonstrate what a Micro-Nikkor can do on film -- of which your shot is an excellent example? Maybe the Nikon F and F2 are so iconic that they can be given an honorary title of the camera Leica should have built in the 1960s?

Ever swimming against the tide, I, as you did, started with a Nikon (an FE) and made a journey through to an older Leica. In my case by way of a Nikon F2, a Kiev IV, a Contax IIa and III and finally to a Leica IIIf with Summicron 50/2 and Summaron 35/3.5. With the exception of the Kiev, of which my example has some annoying little problems, I love all of these cameras. My preferred shots generally come from the Leica or the Contaxes, but I can't deny that I have a better success rate (no. of good shots from per roll) with the SLRs - although a SBOOI viewfinder on the IIIf more recently has helped a lot. 1 hour ago, John Robinson said: While R-lenses can be adapted to Nikon (try a Leitaxed Summicon on an F for a very interesting experience), Oooh, how is this done?

Not quite the same thing, but you could always get a Nikon digital, an extension tube and digitize your Leica negatives with the Micro-Nikkor. 🙂 Which is what I've been doing with my 55/2.8 since the beginning of the year.

I have a Leitax adaptor to put a Leica R lens on F-mount with a little lever on the side to open up the aperture for focusing. The web site for Leitax (leitax.com) has all the details. Very easy adaptation and gets the focus going in the "correct" direction on the F or F2 body with the benefit of the titanium shutter and full-frame focusing screen and the unmistakeable feel of the Nikon. Leica SL with Micro-Nikkor 3.5/55 on a Leica BEOON (and various adapters) doing an excellent job of old B/W negatives. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
