the warrior Posted May 18, 2016 Share #121 Â Posted May 18, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Difficult to think of photographs that do not contain humans, SA 21 f4 is perfect for this work, but no only in 40 centimeters of course.

the warrior Posted May 19, 2016 Share #123 Â Posted May 19, 2016 Finally I decided to buy this lens 21mm f4 SA, now he comes to my hands in a short time: Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Matchin IWKOO hood is in the pack but I'm going to sell because they do not use.

russell Posted May 27, 2016 Share #126  Posted May 27, 2016 I can not find another goal 21mm Leica to do this, 40 centimeters from the face of people, contrast and sharpness, much DOF, quality, some shortcomings are forgiven for my part, I love this lens, I think the week comes'll have one mint.  Leica Monochrom - SA f4 in f4    I have the same lens and the wonderful greys in this picture remind me of what I got out of this lens.  Since moving to digital I haven't shot it as much.  If I ever get a monochrom M I might dust it off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.liam Posted May 27, 2016 Share #127  Posted May 27, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) This thread cost me serious money. I started out intending to pick up a C-V 21/4 and ended up with a 21/3.4 SEM. I need to quit coming here.  Ditto here. An identical journey because of this dreaded thread that also landed upon the SEM, with a short contemplative layover on the ZM 21 C. Fortunate for Leica that Zeiss has not updated that little marvel for digital. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musotographer Posted May 29, 2016 Share #130 Â Posted May 29, 2016 Why ever sell a lens that gives you such stunning pictures?! Some wonderful shots here, and some marvellous processing too.

the warrior Posted May 30, 2016 Share #135 Â Posted May 30, 2016 jmanivelle, I think you will be very satisfied with f4.

Aren't these specifically pointed out as having problems with digital M's?  You may even shoot in A mode with a -2 stop and 2/3 to -3 stops aperture compensation. Works well most of the time or correct manually to the proper reading.  Pulando ondas ! by JM__, on Flickr   jmanivelle, I think you will be very satisfied with f4.  james.liam, There should be no problem ever with the measurement, you can do like me, measure the light with your eyes, or you use an external exposure meter.  Thanks, I sold my 21 SA 4  last year and been missing  it .  crianças by JM__, on Flickr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramarren Posted May 31, 2016 Share #140  Posted May 31, 2016 The Color Skopar 21mm f/4 is a very nice lens, worked beautifully with film and on my Ricoh GXR, but I found it to have some rendering issues with the M9 and M-P typ 240 which bugged me a bit. I sold it and bought an Elmar-M 24/3.8 ASPH.  That was a lovely performer but I found I didn't use it as much as I expected. I traded that one for a Tri-Elmar-M 16-18-21mm f/4 ASPH (or 'WATE').  The WATE turns out to be exactly the right lens for me. Not too bulky, fast enough, and the focal length range is perfect for that I tend to do with ultrawides. I go square format and usually use 16mm with it, but 21mm squares work well too. It also works beautifully on both my M-P and SL bodies.  Leica SL + Tri-Elmar-M 16-18-21mm f/4 (WATE) ISO 400 @ f/4 @ 1/20 @ 16mm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
