Totally surprised. Here is the summicron shot: Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

John Side by side in PS - the Summicron shot just looks sharper and “cleaner”if that makes sense. Probably a microcontrast issue? Not really sure. Color images with this lens look a little like 70’s film shots, but it really shines in black and white! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lct Posted June 28, 2024 Share #5126 Posted June 28, 2024 To compete with current versions, my 1956 Summicron 50/2 v1 needs a hood and contrast must be pushed in PP. Great lens otherwise in WB and the lens is no slouch in color either. Here with 12575 hood on M11 at f/2: Welcome, dear visitor!

I think the lower contrast is what gives these lenses that vintage look, an easy fix these days. Otherwise the sharpness and detail are quite good. Maybe someday I’ll get a V5 - would love to see what a new version can do! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted June 28, 2024 Share #5128 Posted June 28, 2024 (edited) Just for info, i would not use the 12575 hood in RF mode, it protects well against flare but blocks the OVF window too much and cannot be reversed for transportation. Aside from the regular hood i have no experience with (SOOFM), both metal (12585) and plastic (12538) vented hoods are a better fit in RF mode IMHO. Both can be reversed for transportation and the glass is protected by the 14033 plastic hood cap if needed. Ouch! too many words here, sorry.
