Been a long time lurker of these forums. Figured I’d start posting in 2021! Was lucky enough to get my hands on a black 28mm summaron a couple years ago and it’s my favorite lens. On my m10m 90% of th

Only thing with the old lenses is that the magnification does not work when focussing using live view with the older lenses on newer cameras.

Can't understand why magnification dosn't work. Interesting to know reason. Leica do not suggest anywhere this is the case with older lenses as far as I know.

LV works and so does magnification. You just need the right adapter - ie, in the case of this particular lens, one that both covers the 6-bit sensor AND allows the infinity lock to be released without being blocked by the adapter edge. I use a Rayqual one, but there are (few) others.

And the last is a film shot, which renders the colors much better. I tried this shot just after the one below with this lens on the M10 and couldn't get anywhere near these colors: people spoke of "better color depth"...

Hello

Thanks to pedaes, mnutzer and Verteidiger for your answers which will help me to choose between the original and the new one.

I don't have experience between originals vs reissues in optics, but I do have experience in furniture and vinyl records. I have a great preference for originals. But a lens it's different. The only experience I have in antique lenses is the summilux 75mm. I bought it in excellent condition in a shop (unfortunately it's stolen today). But it was a much more recent lens. 

Next week I should be able to try an original summaron and my dealer will receive a new summaron very soon. I will try it as well.

Thank you, had only known and used the original Leica ones (Type I). Just ordered a Rayqual one and will try it out. Thank you again!

I am curious to hear - read - about your decision!

Of course I'll let you know my choice. 
I don't have a film camera for the M-lenses anymore.
I had a Zeiss Ikon and it was stolen. I'm thinking of buying one, but I don't know yet if I'll take a modern M (new M-A or a pre-loved M7) or an old screw mount camera . 
This point can count in my choice for the summaron and I'll have to decide what I'll do soon enough

the funfair and ... marilyn and the metro gate of new york ..

The scene was filmed at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and East 52nd Street. .

The biggest disappointment is that there is no commemorative or other plaque on the metro grid to inform the passerby that one of the most famous scenes in the history of cinema is tour here, poor Marilyn Monroe !!!

with my summaron-m28/5.6 , I will be in New York next week for Valentine's Day : snow maybe ???

hello ,

in 2019 a large exhibition of contemporary art opened there in public space, entitled " Les Extatiques ". This year's theme seems all right, since it is about air. The chosen artists thus play, in a monumental way, with incongruous, dreamy and funny images.

 at the exit of the Esplanade de la Défense station, with the Japanese Fujiko Nakaya : the artist settles on the waters of the Takis basin to deploy a gigantic cloud of water vapor which stagnates and flies in the wind.

This little Summaron is my most "dramatic rendering" lens.
