Advertisement Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 Hi Tragg, Take a look here Zeiss Sonnar 50mm f/1.5. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Hello Posted July 13, 2018 Share #2 Posted July 13, 2018 Which one? The ZM? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
romanus53 Posted July 13, 2018 Share #3 Posted July 13, 2018 yes, yes, yes, any kind of Sonnar can be directly mounted (ZM) or adapted (e39 to M, Amendeo contax to M) to Leica with pretty good results 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raid Amin Posted July 13, 2018 Share #4 Posted July 13, 2018 As said above, there are many Sonnar 50mm lenses available, and they all can be used with the Leica M bodies. Canon 50/1.5 Zeiss 5cm/1.5 Zeiss 50/1.5 ZM Jupiter - 3 ... plus many more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tragg Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share #5 Posted July 13, 2018 Which one? The ZM? The lens was originally fitted to a Contax iia Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ecar Posted July 13, 2018 Share #6 Posted July 13, 2018 The lens was originally fitted to a Contax iia Then you need an Amedeo Contax to M adapter, as suggested by romanus53 above. They come in two different flavours these days: the 'original' one without focussing lever that will let you mount any Contax lens with a focal length of 50mm and above - and the more recent (and less expensive) one for 50mm lenses that has a focussing lever and the same focus direction and pitch as the Leica 50mm lenses (Elmar, etc.). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
