hiphop Posted May 16, 2007 Share #1 Posted May 16, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have a summilux 50 pre-asph 4010XXX which I will use with my M8. Do I need the UV / IR filter and coding ? What will be the added value ? thanks for your advices. Pierre-Olivier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted May 16, 2007 Posted May 16, 2007 Hi hiphop, Take a look here Summilux and UV / IR filter. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
yoMammabot Posted May 16, 2007 Share #2 Posted May 16, 2007 I think you'll find that you will most definitely want the IR filter to keep the color accurate with the M8. Coding on the other hand should not be necessary due to the fact that the FOV is not wide enough to impose the cyan drift that occur at 35mm and wider. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the coding is only assisting in the cyan drift. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiphop Posted May 16, 2007 Author Share #3 Posted May 16, 2007 Thanks for the reply. Might be good news for me as I have the UV / IR filter but not the coding in my pre-asph summilux. My Cron 28 asph is coded and has the lense... Lucky day ! Pierre-Olivier Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tashley Posted May 16, 2007 Share #5 Posted May 16, 2007 I'd use filters and remember if possible to select the correct menu option since the cyans can just about creep in, if you are really really picky - but I wouldn't worry about it enough to switch menu choices unless feeling leisurely. Best thing about the coding on this lens is the EXIF info. Best T Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
