There has been a long and excellent thread running since January 2010 called "M8 and Old Glass", which contains many beautiful pictures using older lenses on M8's. I've wanted to contribute to the th

Those are lovely shots, Chaps, and thanks for the support.   Dirk, I've seen those superb shots before and they caused to me to lust after a 73/1.9 but I overcame the lust over time. But now it's s

I think nobody will take offense of yor postings if you follow yorda@'s wish to use parsimony as far as the number of postings is concerned, add the data about the camera and lens and follow the rules about what is an "older lens".  

I think my 1964 35mm f/2.8 Elmarit-R I chrome is, if not old, then not very young. I’m 13 years older than him, so we’ll assume that I’m “middle-aged” with him.....)))

@toodys, very nice images and thank you for sharing. Kindly provide lens and camera information each time you post, please. You may also want to use a smaller font on your text.  

I posted a photo for the first time this Monday and after a comment from the moderator I wrote that I only have a Sony NEX 5n. I didn't think it was necessary to mention this every time, sorry!
This is the first time in my life I’m participating in a forum and I’m not very familiar with PCs. Sorry, I don’t even know how to reduce the font.... Sincerely, old fool toodys.

I think thios series of too dys needs a small ovation, as regards the capability these images have in conveying the Leica look and the Leica method. You go vor it.

I am curious as to the body toodys used. 

(getting clarity is a really nazzy question of course) It is like a request from a scifi book and I must say the works tick time like a clockwork. 

OK ok  I used M10-R & 35mm Cron/4, imported by Odin decades ago.

Nice photos, glad you posted them here as i have no experience with the Elmarit-R 35/2.8. Mine is a Summicron-R 35/2 but yours looks no slouch by far. Reminds me of the Biogon 35/2.8 which is an old design too but is still sold by Zeiss-Cosina.

@toodys

Thank you for letting us know that you are not used to online forums and posting pictures.  I think we have all been in that situation where we are new to forums and we need to learn what the rules are and what is considered reasonable by others so I'm satisffied that you didn't mean to cause offence. 

Unfortunately the number of pictures you posted today has swamped the thread so would you very kindly limit yourself to posting no more than 10 pictures per day please?

I know you mentioned that you use a Sony Nex 5 camera, which is fine as long as you follow the guidance I offered in my last post.  Would you please add the details of camera and lens for each picture (or series of pictures if there is no change) because it's not reasonable to expect other posters to have to go back several pictures to find out which camera you have or which lens you used?

By the way, I have enjoyed the pictures you have posted here.

Pete.

Thank you for not kicking the amateur photographer out of the forum at all. ))) I have taken into account all the comments, I consider the rules reasonable, although I don’t think that there will be changes in my equipment fleet, I will make annotations. Actually, I came to the forum to watch and learn all sorts of BOKE, GLOW....
