asiafish Posted August 2, 2015 Share #103 Â Posted August 2, 2015 An excellent choice. Thanks. Â I've rented this lens before and borrowed it at a Leica Akademie event, so I a. Familiar with its magic. Â The only things that have held me back in the past were the horrible 28mm frame lines and a lack of personal comfort working with the 28mm focal length. Â I will make a very serious effort to adapt to the view and master the perspective because when composition and perspective are righ with this lens it is a serious stunner. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobey bilek Posted August 4, 2015 Share #105  Posted August 4, 2015 I have what I need and I tend to small, light , slow lenses, except where there is no escape like 75 APO.  I will not sacrifice quality for cheap or small.  50 collapsible elmar  is my normal 50,  but I will use my 50 `lux for low light.  35 2.0 ASPH because it is as slow as they make.

Guest )-( Posted November 26, 2015 Share #115  Posted November 26, 2015 I sold my 90 APO-ASPH, it really was just too perfect/too much for me. Informal portraits and occasional landscapes/architectural details tend to be my primary use for 90mm. I really didn't need the 'ultimate' 90mm for this use case (great as it was.)  I picked up a little 90 TE Thin but feel maybe I erred and should have gone for a:  - 90 Summicron pre-APO - I adored the R version of this lens, this is what I should probably have opted for. - 90 Elmarit (46mm filter size is a draw since all my other lenses use it. I hear the lens is very contrasty though and possibly lacking the above's 'special sauce' for portraits.)  So now I've disturbed the still waters of my gear and probably have to save up for a 90 Cron pre-APO/find a good one without haze/problems.   That's a wishlist filled with big ticket items luigi! Leave the oldies alone, start at the top, and see how far down your list you make it  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsolomon Posted November 28, 2015 Share #116  Posted November 28, 2015 does a 2x converter exist ?  would like the 135 , however for the amount of use i would prefer a 2x tele-converter.  i have the 75/2 so would gladly use the 2 x converter  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiafish Posted November 28, 2015 Share #117 Â Posted November 28, 2015 I have my eye on the 28mm that costs two grand. That would be the 28 Elmarit which is a little but over $2000, but not much. Â Fantastic lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asiafish Posted November 28, 2015 Share #118 Â Posted November 28, 2015 While my Leica kit is complete (28/2.8 Elmarit ASPH, 35/2.5 Summarit, 50 Summicron v5, 90 Elmarit v2 and 1937 Zeiss 5cm f/1.5 Sonnar), that doesn't mean I'm not still lusting after other glass. Â I recently pulled the trigger on a Carl Zeiss 35mm f/1.4 ZE for Canon and love it on my 6D. Â Since the DSLR is already big, I don't really mind big and heavy lenses when I use it. Â Also, unlike an RF there are no issues with focusing accurately with razor-thin depth of field and that beast of a lens focuses a lot closer than any 35mm lens would on a rangefinder. Â Next addition will likely be a fast 50mm or 85mm for the Canon. Â The CZ lenses are very nice, though the one I really want (55mm f/1.4 Otus) is out of my price range. Â Maybe a used one?

FrozenInTime Posted November 28, 2015 Share #119  Posted November 28, 2015 I'm waiting for Mr Miyazaki to imagine a 35mm f/1.1 A follow on from the Sonnetar - something quirky, ultra fast and with a unique signature rather than optical perfection.
