Advertisement Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Hi hillavoider, Take a look here The view through older Glass. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Paul J Posted November 16, 2012 Share #482 Posted November 16, 2012 My 75mm Summilux is from the mid 80's. So it's not ancient but certainly older. In particular the black and white tonality from it is just really something special. Straight conversions are amazing. I would prefer it to be sharper wide open but still, I love it. Here is one shot at 2.8, where the lens really sings. 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wda Posted November 16, 2012 Share #483 Posted November 16, 2012 Paul, I don't have this lens, but wide open the depth of sharp focus is so short that most of the subject will not appear sharp. I find that with my 50 Summilux, particularly close up. It calls for great skill in choosing the right subject and very accurate focusing. I practise frequently and need to.

JeffoJeffo Posted November 17, 2012 Share #490 Posted November 17, 2012 Angenieux P2 100mm f2.5 + Leica-M Monochrom. Just got this one back from Japan master...took a few test shots. Already like it. It's quite a compact lens for 100mm, it will be a traveler's mate for sure. Welcome, dear visitor!

farnz Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share #496 Posted November 18, 2012 Keith, Allow me to clarify. I only decided to gently intercede earlier because the posts looked like they were heading for a discussion about a particular lens which, while interesting in itself, would be better in a separate thread in this sub forum so that the flow of images taken through older glass can continue. No problem with your comment or others like it because there are some rare lenses being used in this thread and I expect many of us would like to know more about them owing to the wonderful pictures posted here. I would just ask that members respect the flow of this thread and for fuller discussions please start a separate and post a directing link here to guide others who might also want to join the discussion to it. Everyone please continue to post the wonderful pictures from the amazingly vast array of rare and not so rare older glass that make this thread so special. Pete. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
