seongkim Posted August 16, 2014 Share #1 Posted August 16, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Absolutely amazing, colour rendition and sharpness. This is exactly what I have been searching for. After many many hours/days/nights... researching Leica's quality and trying to understand the Leica look, I am slowly and seeing and possibly feeling the look. Feeling the look? Believe it or not, maybe I am crazy, when I print out images from the M and review, I never had feelings like this before... Not even from the H4D systems... Leica's captures the essence of the subject... I also heard many people taking about the quality of the camera is unbeatable, however the images that come out of the camera are un-comparable... After reviewing images and playing with dynamic range, I would have to say that this is so far my #1 choice. I do not need fast auto focusing however just having the system for less than a week, I am already focusing extremely accurate and landing 95% of my shots. I have to say, I am hooked. Coming from Hasselblad H4D, Nikon D800E, Canon's and just retired the Fuji lineup... I am not looking back, although I had many thoughts on going back at first but seeing the results and again "feeling" the images... I am no longer looking back or anywhere else. The next system will be the Leica S and I am pretty sure these two systems will be growing old with me. Thank you kindly, Seong Welcome, dear visitor!

SteveSFO Posted August 17, 2014 Share #4 Posted August 17, 2014 Welcome aboard! I have the same combo and have no reason to go back to the other formats either....perhaps for the S in the future! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirekti Posted August 18, 2014 Share #5 Posted August 18, 2014 Absolutely amazing, colour rendition and sharpness. Would it be a problem if you shared one DNG of the combo, please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaiwing Posted August 18, 2014 Share #6 Posted August 18, 2014 This is one of my favourite lenses. I have it all the times mounted on my M 240. Enjoy! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Sfeir Posted August 19, 2014 Share #8 Posted August 19, 2014 Which version of the 50 Summicron are you using? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4X5B&W Posted August 20, 2014 Share #9 Posted August 20, 2014 My M240 has shown me just how good my 1979 ver. 4 Cron can be. It never looked this good on my M8 or M6. Am I ever glad I hung onto it, crazy how much better high performance lenses get with higher resolution sensors 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_m Posted August 20, 2014 Share #10 Posted August 20, 2014 You've seen it, there's no turning back now. The more you shoot the M (240) the more you will be amazed. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
seongkim Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share #11 Posted August 20, 2014 Which version of the 50 Summicron are you using? 50 Summicron F2 // Current version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
k-hawinkler Posted August 20, 2014 Share #12 Posted August 20, 2014 50 Summicron F2 // Current version. Thanks. So, that is not the APO version, correct? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
seongkim Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share #13 Posted August 22, 2014 Thanks. So, that is not the APO version, correct? That is correct, this is not APO. I was informed the APO would be best on monochrome and the F2 none APO produces similar results and does not produce dramatic differences between the two... It would be nice to have the best made lens in the world but for the price range... I think a nice S series lens with S body would be a better investment for commercial purposes. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
