SiggiGun Posted February 2, 2021 Share #3  Posted February 2, 2021 I have this lens in the M3 version. I should do some images with the M10. ;-). I used it in the past. The lens is very sharp in the center with a more classic rendering. Color is more cold then modern lenses, in my opinion... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colint544 Posted February 2, 2021 Share #4  Posted February 2, 2021 The Summaron 2.8 is a firm favourite of mine. Here's a shot I took, on the west coast of Scotland with the Summaron on a Leica M4, with Ilford Delta 400 film.

Keith (M) Posted February 2, 2021 Share #5  Posted February 2, 2021 I bought my 1967 example some eight years ago - what a little gem.  The build-quality and materials are top class and the results whether on film or digital are always very pleasing. M7, Tri-X. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! M9. Looking at the Summaron photos I have uploaded to Flickr over that period shows that majority usage has been with film - which rather surprised me. It seems to have spent most of the time on the 0.58 MP ALC (which I sold a year ago) then on M7.  Anyway, were I to sell any lens, this would be pretty much last on the list.  8 Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

That's the one with goggles (as the M3 has no 35mm lines in the viewfinder, so the goggles transform the 50mm lines into 35mm lines). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
