these are from my version 2 35mm Summicron from the 1970's on M9- it has a distinct look- and is built like a fine little watch:

Follow-up on the 1920's 4cm F1.4 Biotar: it will not cover full-frame. It was made for a 35mm cine camera, 18x24 format. Checked through a TTL viewer, it should cover the sensor on the M8, or a 1.5x crop camera.

Probably as the Lomo 35mm T1.6 (35mm cine camera format) I tested fully covers the M8 sensor, no vignetting issues, same with the Lomo 28mm T 1.6 .

 

Coming back on the Lomo 28mm T1.5 (OKC10-28-1M) , it actually does vignet on the M8.

I must have mixed shots with the 35mm when I first wrote about this and it's a T1.5 lens.

Here is a shot from today's test !

Jeff, is that CZ Biotar ok? It may be my screen here at work but not one of the photos appears to have any in-focus detail. Or were they deliberately taken off focus? I agree with Pete, the discs are very interesting indeed. I am asking because of images such as in this post.

 

Alex - your Summitar seems to be in very fine shape. Mine wouldn't likely not have handled the strong reflection in the first image nearly as well as yours. The second photo shows why I like the Summitar so much. It has such a smooth transition to the out of focus areas and highlights render in a very pleasant manner, like crystal droplets. Nice.

 

cheers

Kitten Update:

 

after finding a nest of kittens in my yard and documenting the discovery earlier in this thread with a red scale Elmar- we are no some 12 days in and all six are doing very well. Turns out they were around 3 1/2 weeks old when I discovered them. I had to milk feed them (special formula) for 5 days or so and then weaned them onto solid food (and fresh Kangaroo). I believe they have at least doubled in size and have become very active and troublesome little creatures already. My hands are covered in scratches.

 

here is the next stage in development documented with a vintage V1 Canadian made Noctilux f1:

another tele-

 

Here is a vintage lens I really like not just optically: but also cosmetically it is the perfect match for the M9-p chrome camera- the rig looks positively un-digital and 20th Century- people come up- 'oooh an old film camera, nice':cool:

 

the Chrome 90mm Elmarit from around 1960:

Hi Philip, mine is black version n believe is different than the one in the link. Each photo should has a focus point, perhaps I didnt have it dead on :p also the each file r reduce to a very small size n the quality of the photos had been altered. :(

Picked up an M2 and 90mm collapsable Elmar a few days ago. This is from the first roll through it. I love the look of this lens, even though it is a little slower than I'd like.
