philipus Posted January 17, 2016 Share #9663 Posted January 17, 2016 Very sorry to hear this. I hope it gets repaired quickly. My 50/1.4 returned just this week from a very long stay in Wetzlar having suffered a similar accident in November. Looking forward to the results from the 50/2.5. br Philip REALLY BAD NEWS. I was putting my M6 down on my kitchen table and it slipped out of my hand. It only dropped about 8 or 10" and the table is wood but now the focus ring on my Summarit 35mmf/2.5 is really hard to turn.I took the lens off to see if it was the camera but it's the lens.So, I HAD to see if it affected the focus, and it seems not to have done anything negative in that regard.Darn!I'm leaving tomorrow morning to see my son off to his deployment to Bulgaria and this is a bummer. I'm glad the camera still works at least.This is one of my test shots. I focused on the front edge of the bird feeder.Kentmere 400 @320 HC-110B @ 17c Rondinax 35UOh well. It gave me a good excuse to get a Summarit 50mm f/2.5 from Ebay. That way I can keep shooting while the 35mm is being repaired. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your body was digital, there is a very high likelihood that you would have knocked the RF out of alignment, which happened to me many times.

Michael Hiles Posted January 17, 2016 Share #9666 Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) I don't have a sense that this thread denigrates digital photography - rather, it celebrates the unique qualities of film. There are many other threads that welcome, so it seems, a row about film vs. digital. If Doc Henry likes his film and his film Leicas better than his digital cameras, I'm with him. That others may feel differently is excellent to fuel discussion (perhaps more in other threads), and is clearly a damn good thing for Leica Camera AG.

I can't see how that's possible ... the rangefinder mechanism is just about identical between them. Perhaps the out of adjustment behavior is just a wee bit more noticeable with a digital capture than with a film capture, rather than actually being greater or less? No matter, however.

Sparkassenkunde Posted January 17, 2016 Share #9671 Posted January 17, 2016 Wow James, good "find", and a beautiful shot with it. Gary No kidding! That's really nice. Lovely photograph with the Summitar above, James. Very nice James . Lovely rendering of Summitar.and TX You have said "soul" Your old Summitar is now operational for other nice pictures Best Henry Thank you all for your kind comments - and all others for clicking the "Thanks"-button. Here comes another one - same location, same setup. I have shot one roll of color negative film that has to go through development to see how the Summitar handles color. Welcome, dear visitor!

As you can see from the above photo, ultimate sharpness isn't always my highest priority ... I feel exactly the same about sharpness The little I know about rangefinder calibration is that because film is three dimensional, having layers which react differently to different parts of the light, it is somewhat more forgiving to focusing errors than a sensor, which is two dimensional. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel, some people are "allergic" to analog images, I understand It's like me in the beginning but with the difference is that I have not given up the film and I kept the cameras and not sell them, probably because I still have this critical mind due to my job , isn't Chris ? ... but now the reverse is happening As I said above, after the euphoria the wisdom Thanks for your intervention Michael Best Henry Edited January 17, 2016 by Doc Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
