SiOnara Posted June 14, 2017 Share #702 Posted June 14, 2017 Does anyone know how long the waiting time for this lens is in the UK? I ordered and picked mine up the same day at Red Dot Cameras in London. Maybe I was lucky. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bozu_shutterbugger Posted June 27, 2017 Share #704 Posted June 27, 2017 The Voigtländers 4.5 and 5.6 are successful too, are not they. Jan I find many treat Voigtlanders as second class citizens. Again I mean many not everyone. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IkarusJohn Posted July 8, 2017 Share #707 Posted July 8, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Sounds like my 28 Summaron has finally arrived - pick it up on Monday. The idea of M camera and 28 Summaron and 50 Summitar as a compact solution is oddly appealing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianman Posted July 8, 2017 Share #708 Posted July 8, 2017 Glad to hear your wait is almost over !! Don't know about the 50 Summitar but yes, the 28 Summaron on the M is very appealing... nothing odd about it, it's a great combination !! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevesurf Posted July 12, 2017 Share #709 Posted July 12, 2017 The local dealer ordered one when it was announced - it apparently has my name on it. Still waiting ... 7 months !!?? Seems a bit long... have you been chasing him up ? Mine has been on order from B&H since February and even they can't give me an update When it does appear, I'll host a tiny lens party!

Mike Rawcs Posted July 24, 2017 Share #712 Posted July 24, 2017 I like the first photograph more than the second, Mitch, but thanks for posting - even if it eventually costs me money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exodies Posted July 25, 2017 Share #714 Posted July 25, 2017 Mike - Thanks. Why do you like the first photo better?I'm of the same opinion and the reason is:The scene is tranquil The man in the doorway is still The second man seems to be rushing - breaks the mood. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NB23 Posted July 25, 2017 Share #717 Posted July 25, 2017 The first has a better composition and this subconsciously makes it feel better. Composition is about the little things. Upper window is uncropped and there is no unneeded chair in the lower left. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the same man, having cleared the table. Exodies/Mike Rawcs/NB23/stephen.w - Thanks for looking and responding to my question on the preference for the first picture, on which you all agree. First, this is a restaurant called Da Conch Shack on Providenciales, an island in Turks & Caicos. The man in both pictures is the same waiter. At first, when I examined in Lightroom the pictures shot that day, I instantaneously selected the second picture as the one to process (like selecting a frame from a contact sheet of a roll of 35mm film). After that I went on to process the first picture, which I liked less. However, when deciding which picture to post to my flickr site and here, I selected the first picture because I thought viewers would like it more, for the same reasons that you've stated: overall, it's a pleasing composition in terms of balance, the top window not being cut off, and giving more of what people often call a "sense of place" — it is also a prettier scene: I'm using the word "prettier" intentionally here. Nevertheless, I kept on looking at the second picture and continued to feel that it's a better photograph: a more dynamic composition, and I liked the oranges in the sand, at the bottom of the frame, against the blues in the image; but most strikingly, I liked the gesture of the tree matching the gesture of the man, "gesture" in the sense of attitude in a "gesture drawing." For me, the second image says more and says it more forcefully — more meaning and more expression. In this sense, the chair in the left bottom foreground is helpful rather than unneeded. Generally, my feeling is that, in judging images, our instantaneous first choice is, in most cases, likely to be the right one — the right one for ourselves, that is. _______________ Alone in Bangkok essay on BURN Magazine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
