Guest Posted November 2, 2015 Share #4 Posted November 2, 2015 i love the special look of my canon 50/1.4 ltm. but it is not my favorite focal length, and it´s not so fast to handle compared to my 28 elmarit or 35 cron which i prefer for street. lambda.

jaapv Posted November 2, 2015 Share #5 Posted November 2, 2015 Have a look at the Canon 35/2.8 LTM. These lenses can be found for next to nothing, and have a very pleasing contrast curve for B&W.(and are sharper than the Leica offerings of the period) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgk Posted November 2, 2015 Share #6 Posted November 2, 2015 21mm f/3.4 Super-Angulon-M. Fabulously sharp centrally, still good at the edges due to the crop factor, quirky and fun to use. None of the corner colour issues in B&W obviously . Its a 'classic' little lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aljaszcar1 Posted November 6, 2015 Share #8 Posted November 6, 2015 My voigtlander 28 and 21mm give beautiful results in both color and bw. Compares very favorably with summicrons at 1/3 the price Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_hutton Posted November 11, 2015 Share #9 Posted November 11, 2015 40mm Summicron is my favourite and only lens for everything on the M8. Graeme Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
