The habit of the M10 of rendering a bit saturated plays a part in itself, but may be tempered with the color-rendition from a Leica lens from the 60’s. We only live once but I’m just curious if I would have been as enthousiast if it had been the newest Summilux FLE2 for instance. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only live once but I’m just curious if I would have been as enthousiast if it had been the newest Summilux FLE2 for instance. The post you are referring to was a bit tongue-in-cheek then, as it was a time when people were eagerly waiting for the announcement of the SR re-issue and I found the row of empty chairs fitting (this picture was actually taken at the Prada Foundation in Milan, Italy). Also, I thought the colours were rather Leica-ish, in a muted way. Yes, the interaction of an old lens with a digital sensor may be part of the appeal in terms of colour, contrast and sharpness – it is to me anyway. There is also the infamous wide-open “glow” that this lens is known for and that is quite visible on the first chair of the row. I do not own the 35mm FLE v2, as I chose to keep the non-FLE ASPH after pitting it against the FLE v1. But it would probably have produced a sharper, more vibrant image (aka a “modern look”). A matter of taste or circumstances, really: as you say, we only live once – so you might as well pick your poison when it comes down to it...😉 Here's another one with the 1960 Summilux 35/1.4 v1 on the M10P ASC, probably @ f/2.8 or f/4 Welcome, dear visitor!

Either way, the result is very pleasing to the eye. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
