Jon Warwick Posted March 21, 2023 Share #24 Posted March 21, 2023 No photos with it yet, but I recently bought a lovely condition v5 to use on my M10M for a slightly lower contrast and gentler rendering than i’ve achieved with my APO Lanthar and M 50 APO. I used to own the v5 a numbers of years ago, so I’m familiar with its characteristics and missed its less harsh rendering, for portraits especially. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farkle-Mpls Posted March 24, 2023 Share #28 Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) Full resolution crop. Incredible detail in those beautiful eyes. I think these were both shot at F4.0, maybe F2.8. Rangefinder focused. Crisper on my monitor -- I think it got downsampled for posting. Welcome, dear visitor!

tedd Posted March 27, 2023 Share #32 Posted March 27, 2023 Wonderful lens. I sold my last one to fund a 50 Lux ASPH, but I miss it from time to time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Warwick Posted March 27, 2023 Share #33 Posted March 27, 2023 I recently returned to the Summicron v5 by buying a used, but very recently produced copy (I sold my original copy, dated c 2002, due to increasing veiling flare and very heavy field curvature). I'm wondering if the lens coating has changed over the last 2 decades, I thought my old c 2002 copy was more "brown" in terms of the coating on the lens elements, but this recently produced copy has the modern "blue / purple" glow to it. But that's a good thing, it seems, given this newer v5 has zero tendency to flare, but still has the gentler Mandler characteristic to it. I'd most recently been using the Voigtlander 35 and 50 APO Lanthars, but they're quite "strong" at times in terms of contrast and acuity with my M10 Monochrom, and I was after something a little gentler in terms of contrast and overall rendering, which I believe I've found with the v5. First shots below with this combo, just snapshots around the local park. I don't have a cat / dog, so you missed out on that type of tests! Welcome, dear visitor!

Jeff S Posted March 30, 2023 Share #38 Posted March 30, 2023 Enjoyed my v.5 before long ago trade for Summilux ASPH, except for attention to flare and lack of focus tab. Otherwise, no complaints. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
