Advertisement Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 Hi Toxfox, Take a look here purchase advice. Leica M Lense, Leitz Summicron M 35mm, 800 EUR. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
a.noctilux Posted October 2, 2017 Share #2 Posted October 2, 2017 Hello Ann, 35mm Summicron M mount is a good idea, but choosing the one type that suit your taste (photo result as expected) may be tough. At 800 Euro, depend on the version it's a good price or a bargain. Think of reselling it if you want to upgrade in future, Choosing one with "flaws" may not be good idea, you would regret later when using. I think that for the price it's version II or III: https://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-wiki.en/index.php/35mm_f/2_Summicron_II Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted October 2, 2017 Share #3 Posted October 2, 2017 Yes depends on its age, condition and of course on the defect. The serial number and a picture of this fluff could be useful for further advice. Welcome to the forum BTW Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted October 2, 2017 Share #5 Posted October 2, 2017 Normally on the front of the lens. Be aware that there are a number of versions of the Summicron 35, each with its own character. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UliWer Posted October 9, 2017 Share #8 Posted October 9, 2017 THX for aw... Where I can find the serialnumber? I have a Sumicrom 50 with number on it, but at the 35 I cant find Quick learner! He offers the same lens he asked for in this thread in the Buy&Sell subforum. In his offer he omits the last three digits, but he gratuitously also shows a photo with the full number: it‘s the same lens he asked for in this thread and in a second one in the German forum - where he already mentioned the number 7 days ago. Now his add tells us that he has used this lens for long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted October 9, 2017 Share #9 Posted October 9, 2017 Strange, indeed. "Lens used for long" and asking for serial number, I don't understand ... https://www.l-camera-forum.com/classifieds/item/13845-summicron-m-iv-35mm-leitz-canada-lense-orginal/ LCT, Not "Tiger Claw" 35 Cron IV on photos posted.
