Advertisement Posted June 15, 2019 Posted June 15, 2019 Hi ianman, Take a look here Leica Summaron-28 -image thread. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
wattsy Posted June 24, 2019 Share #1202 Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) The thread rolls on... I went to Collard Hill in Somerset on summer solstice last Friday. I went principally to see the Large Blue (as I have done for the last few years at this time of year) but the view is also worth the trip. M240 and 28 Summaron-M. Welcome, dear visitor!

james.liam Posted June 24, 2019 Share #1203 Posted June 24, 2019 Can anyone who owns both a 28 Elmarit ASPH and the new Summaron tell me what I’m missing when both are set at f/5.6? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing or ALL depending on subject in front 😇 as side note, I've never use at same time/subject the two 28mm they are quite different and I plan to use one over another knowing which kind of photos I want. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most obviously the natural vignetting of the Summaron (as seen in Wattsy's lovely image above/Post #1202). Critical examination will also show better corner resolution from the Elmarit. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I own neither the Elmarit-M ASPH nor the Summaron-M, but keep trying to justify buying one or the other, or, perhaps, both, sooner or later, probably later, when I can justify spending the money.)

I have yet to order the 34-39mm step-up ring, which I can buy in the USA, from B&H, as I have yet to decide whether to buy a Summaron-M 28mm. This 39mm short hood will, hopefully, be useful with my Summaron-M 3.5cm f/3.5. The “proper” Leitz hood for the 3.5cm Summaron appears to be a short cylinder, so the Heliopan Short Metal Hood should work. Hi, what about using Heliopan 39mm hood + ste-up ring. Is it ok?

a.noctilux Posted July 9, 2019 Share #1212 Posted July 9, 2019 If not said before, I never use the very nice hood delivered with the Summaron-M. So nicely built that it almost double the light 28mm weight. The front lens is so small and recess far inside that the mount acts as "very effective shade". Even the metal cap is over-built, I've found (very hard to have " practical plastic cap" of this E34 size ) a plastic cap substitution = "Asahi opt. co." body cap from Pentax Spotmatic 😇 Even this kind of cap ...some don't fit well and fall in use, I think that the precision in size varies over time. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
poli Posted July 9, 2019 Share #1213 Posted July 9, 2019 I also never use the hood on this lens. Too cumbersome to put on and I do not think it is necessary. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - I have bought a cheapo generic plastic clip in cap for everyday use and keep original with hood in the nice presentation box lens comes in.
