npaprota Posted January 22, 2019 Share #1 Posted January 22, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, I recently bought a 5cm collapsible Summicron for my M6 and it seems that the 50mm frame lines do not display. I was wondering if this was a problem for other users? Manually changing the frame works but I would love it for the frame lines to stay...Is it because its an old lens? Should I just grab a modern one instead? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Hi npaprota, Take a look here 5cm summicron doesn't show in frame lines. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
250swb Posted January 22, 2019 Share #2 Posted January 22, 2019 (edited) I assume then that it's an ltm Summicron with an M adapter? Most likely the cause of the 5cm frameline not showing is that it's the wrong adapter. What framelines do show? If you take the adapter off it should say what the adapter is for, they come in three main types for modern M cameras, 28 - 90, 35 - 135, and 50 - 75 and this is the correct one.
