michaelwj Posted June 25, 2016 Share #62 Â Posted June 25, 2016 How so? Got t have loads of focus shift and softer @ Æ’f/1.4 than ever the pre-FLE. I'm wondering because I have been thinking about the ZM 1,4/35 There's more to life than technical perfection Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
derleicaman Posted June 27, 2016 Share #63 Â Posted June 27, 2016 Very wise words! Everyone should have their own voice and a say in their destiny. Don't fret.

The rumblings below foot aren't just in England. But now given voice, they gambol across the continent. Every relationship, no matter the size, needs the occasional frank reckoning, especially when one party thinks its too perfect to listen.  This will all work out in the end; the results may yet surprise you.  Strong words on my behalf, and I suspect less than accurate in many circumstances, but there have been a number of leave voters that have effectively admitted to voting only as a protest, now shocked that their vote counted.......The only voice they had was to say yes or no and what they wanted to say was I am protesting, and when they achieved this they made zero point about that fact... and talked about whether they felt sick or not hearing the news their vote counted !!!  I will try and share you optimism after receiving a call from the estate agent this morning informing me that my buyer for the house has pulled out because of Brexit !  Perhaps my lens collection needs further reduction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Doppel Posted August 31, 2016 Author Share #65  Posted August 31, 2016 Interestingly second hand lenses seem slow to sell ?  I have my 24, two 50's, 75 and two Voigtlanders still up for sale via Ace Cameras in Bath. Not overpriced and all close to mint, most boxed and coded and all with leather pouches  I am glad to say I am back at work full time my last MRI showed I am recovering and nothing new, so I could afford to take them back. But I haven't missed them and find I actually make more lens choices with a smaller lot then before ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWC Doppel Posted September 1, 2016 Author Share #71 Â Posted September 1, 2016 I was in Bath today and I came very close to buying the 50 Elmar... Â My one was the coded and cheaper black one ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Pope Posted September 1, 2016 Share #72  Posted September 1, 2016 My one was the coded and cheaper black one !  That's the one I was tempted by... I do like the idea of the collapsible 50, but I have a  50 summicron and the MATE, so in the end, I felt it was a bit too extravagant.  I do however, reserve the right to change my mind! :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWC Doppel Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share #73  Posted September 2, 2016 I am actually very happy with a much smaller collection. If Leica produced a 15mm or 16mm  f2.8 I'd snap it up. Nothing really on the less front I covert now, other than experimenting with an 8 element V1 35mm Summicron and an early pre ash summilux Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
