Thanks. Already started to doubt. And indeed with the m10-d you cannot choose a lens in the camera menu.

Very strange indeed, that you cannot manually choose a lens for the M10-D via the Fotos app or somewhere else. But I've heard of this problem before. I hope a future update will make it possible.

I like how this lens renders landscapes as well as portraits.

50 lux (e43), m10-d

It looks like my GAS is deflating more and more every day I can't find a copy of this lens for under 3000,00 dollars US Locally .. The prices are just going through the roof. 

If used Noctilux V4 prices stay constant (no guarantee of that of course!), probably worth going the whole hog for that instead. After all, one of the reasons for plumping for the Type 2 Summilux is that is renders similar to the Noct. Maybe better to get the real thing?

Ray, I agree to get the real thing 😉.

 

For me, each Noctilux or Summilux which I use in many units ARE the real thing.

In my use, each Leitz/Leica lens IS the real thing.

I just learn to know that when I carry Noctilux E58, I don't expect to 'have' the 'same rendering' of Summilux (E43 or E46), and vice-versa.

Each one has something else to offer, so not learning to know each IS the culprit.

 

From memory, I have  (and learned to use over years ! ) in 50mm for M : Summar, Elmar, Summarit (1.5/-M 2.5), Summicron, Summilux,

and many more in third parties lenses.

Ah, made a mistake didn't I, implying a Summilux as not being the real thing, on this forum of all places.  Nevertheless, hopefully the point was made in relation to the current respective values of the lenses.

Ray,

I have to admit that Leitz/Leica (not only, of course) "offered" choices in different 50mm lenses since many decades,

that for me IS the good thing so I profit from those offerings to learn and see how different they can be.

So I have almost all Leitz/Leica offerings over time (from 1930's to recent days) and never been able to choose only one of them.

Elmar that I use many types may be the first old-success-story, but I'm happy to use wider open lenses when needed.

Nowadays, Summarit-M IS the successor (not a success anymore, users move to other lenses, so does Leica with Asph.Apo-etc. offerings).

 

Coming to Summilux-M 50mm, pre-asph. this is lovely lens which can enhance photographer's skills (not replacing skills lacks though) 😉
