Two more from the 28 Summicron-M v1. M10

I can't get over the tonal range of this lens - it's like having a Mandler/Canada v.3, only faster and smaller. 😁

Adan, it's one of my favorites for B&W but I reach for the Emarit ASPA out of habit.  I will put it in my bag so I won't forget it the next time.

After a few months with this 28 Summilux lens I have come to the conclusion that I am very happy with its abilities. I am shooting Street from the hip at f1.4 which is pretty crazy considering the depth of field. I do have a few disappointments (fails) however when I get the distance exactly right, the results are amazing. In previous years I have been using the 21 SEM, 35 Summicron Asp and the 35 Summilux. Moving to the 28 has been a relief from my long held 35 mm perspective. I was already using the 21 in preference to the 35 Summilux because of its smaller barrel size suiting the angle of the camera sitting at my side. My hit rate was also increasing with the 21 lens.

The move to 28 was a no brainer considering the cropping factor is less compared to the 21 SEM. I wouldn't recommend starting this method of shooting with a 1.4 lenses however. There is great benefit of having some success with ones images and be able to endure the continual practicing process to perfect the method. The best lens I have found for shooting from the hip is the 35 Summicron. Once again for its barrel size and the angle it can sit comfortably on my shoulder bag, at my side. I am having to readjust the length of my shoulder bag with different camera straps so the camera looks most comfortable while achieving the best angle to subjects up to 2.5 metres away. This image was shot with the M Monochrom camera however the M10M is (and probably the M11M) are better tools for the job. Once establishing a rhythm on the street with changing exposures and approaching the subject, the only other problem is rolling shutter.
