erl Posted April 9, 2013 Share #1141 Posted April 9, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) It appears that neither image was focused right according to my 20 20 vision. 20 20 vision is not really a gold standard as I understand it. Regardless, both images are well focused to my eyes. What you are probably seeing is ISO 3200 film shot wide open at night. Perfectly fine considering those limiting parameters. Then there is the issue of focusing a 111f in this situation. If you have ever done it, you will know what I am saying. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erl Posted April 10, 2013 Share #1146 Posted April 10, 2013 ERL, my suggestion please have your eyes tested, PLEASE. Thanks for the advice, but it is a bit late. I have had it done last month. My eyes are currently rated better than 20/20, which I have already stated is not 'the gold standard'. I can only reiterate my original explanation(s) of what we are seeing in those pics. Under those circumstance the images are fine. remember, it is, or should be, about the image, not the techicality, which is also up to scratch in the given circumstances. The real bottom line is that the poster likes them enough to share them. That is the last word IMO. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have a 35/3.5 LTM Summaron and find it quite similar in its B&W rendering to the 28 Summaron 5.6 LTM . 35 Summaron 3.5 LTM + M8: na praia by careca2013, on Flickr 28 Summaron 5.6 LTM + M8: Camelô vendedor na praia by careca2013, on Flickr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stanjan0 Posted April 12, 2013 Share #1154 Posted April 12, 2013 (edited) After perusing most of the posted images taken with old, older, and some very old Leica lens "I can now fully understand why Leica keeps up dating their lens." It may be some of the posted images were posted by individuals who haven't got the nack of posting properly or that they have not learned proper posting techniques.

Guest stanjan0 Posted April 12, 2013 Share #1156 Posted April 12, 2013 Pete, if you don't care about focusing images with old, older, and very old, Leica lens then BLUR everything. BTW FOCUSING is it spelled with two S in the mother country? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
