Advertisement Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 Hi W4Leica, Take a look here Which M lenses do you want to own??. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
erniethemilk Posted June 26, 2020 Share #262  Posted June 26, 2020 35 Summilux.  Guessing it maybe a step us from my 7artisans 35mm f2 😆 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 26, 2020 Share #264 Â Posted June 26, 2020 I seriously doubt any lenses would produce better results than my zeiss 25mm,,,,,,,,summarit 35mm/50mm f2.4 or tele-elmarit 90mm for my style of photography but the 90mm summicrom 1980-98 lens looks like a beautiful piece of glass. I would like one,especially now that i am in the "mandler club" with my 1984 tele-elmarit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oekoek Posted June 27, 2020 Share #265  Posted June 27, 2020 The Leica 24mm f2,8 Elmarit M ASPH, i am very curious about this lens, I wonder about its rendering and how it would match my 50/2 IV. But since I already own the 21 SEM and 28/2.8 IV I can't justify to buy me a 24.........yet🙄. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since I already own the 21 SEM and 28/2.8 IV I can't justify to buy me a 24.........yet🙄. I love my Elmarit 24mm. I do not have a 28 and rather have a 35 but less used.I have the SEM 21 also. For me the dilemma continues without being able to get rid of one or the other. Both can be great landscape and also street photography lenses. Elmarit 24 draws a very special way between the modern and older lenses. So, actually it matches well the 50 cron V4 that I also have, as well as a more modern look if one wants . With some PP this can be adjusted. However, the purity of the tones and also the special rendering of the Elmarit 24, especially in lower light situation gives it an own signature. IT is currently one of the most offered lenses as second hand and it is possible to acquire excellent copies for "reasonable" pricing. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
evikne Posted July 15, 2020 Share #267 Â Posted July 15, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) I would like to own a 35mm Summilux FLE Black Chrome with scalloped focus ring, that matches my 50mm. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per P. Posted July 16, 2020 Share #269  Posted July 16, 2020 Amusing to see several people wanting the 35 Summilux (in one version or the other). I plan to sell mine because I want to go back to the 35 Summicron Asph. Admittedly I want the newest Asph version so it is maybe not a complete reverse 😀 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arrow Posted July 21, 2020 Share #270  Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) I rather want to own less M lenses!!!!! There are some focal lengths, I luckily only own one M lens or none, at all. 90mm, I can live with owning the Thambar and the Elmarit. They do very different things and do it well. 50mm is my redundancy zone  50 Summicron, 50 APO Summicron, 50 Summilux ASPH and 50 Noctilux 0.95. Ah, yes, there is also a Zeiss 50 Sonnar. I would not mind to own a Noctilux f1 (Canada original and not the Wetzlar copy!), too.  .... You get the idea.   Edited July 21, 2020 by Arrow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Ash Posted July 21, 2020 Share #271  Posted July 21, 2020 Fascinated by my Apo Summicron 50, Apo 75 and Apo-Telyt 135 I would like to make my M system an APO system by adding the still to designed (? who nows, may be the designs are there) APO Summicron 35 and may be APO 28. I would not mind if these lenses would keep the size of the APO 50 in analogy to the SL system. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not mind if these lenses would keep the size of the APO 50 in analogy to the SL system. The APO correction is necessary in long focal lengths. Pretty sure it is redundant other than for marketing in 50 mm even (which is why it was not mentioned in the 50 mm Summilux ASPH which has this correction). I wouldn't hold my breath for 35 and 28 mm APO's but it wouldn't be the first time something has been done for non-technical reasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think there is room for a summicron which relaxes on the small size a bit but strengthens on image quality. I think those lenses would be of higher value to the user then the latest Noctilux 75 and Summilux 90. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregm61 Posted July 22, 2020 Share #276  Posted July 22, 2020 Already have every lens I could possibly want for my M262 or M4. Four in the bag today with the M262- 21 SEM, 35/1.4 FLE, 75/2 APO, 135mm f3.4 APO) and more at home I don’t use as much, including the 18mm f3.8, 24/3.8, 28/2.8 ASPH, 50/2 (current non APO) and 90/2 pre APO.

Stef63 Posted July 23, 2020 Share #277  Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) OP said : "If money were not an issue".  Let's keep this in mind 😀 New Leica : I already have to many M lenses.  The new 75 Nocti and 90 Lux would be fun, but I see little added value to the current M lens collection I already have.  Maybe the new (vintage based) Summaron-M 28/5.6 to compare with my Nikkor W 28/5.6 or even more silly the new M version of the Thambar 90/2.2 to see the difference with my 1934 LTM version.  Like I said "fun" but rather "silly". New Non Leica Mmh, can't think of any lens that is highly desirable  to me.   Vintage Leica (and non Leica) I have a long, very long list.... but my top 3 would be : Nikkor 85/1.5 LTM Leica Vario Apo Elmarit R 70-180/2.8 Dallmeyer Speed 2 inches f1.5 Cursive version Edited July 23, 2020 by Stef63 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
