Must have been great to walk through Kyoto and visit Kyomizudera without tons of other tourists.

Ultimately I was always yearning for 50mm. And sometimes it just wasn’t wide enough. So 28/50 combo for me. 28mm is almost like 35 but just that little but more useful. For me at least. With the 35mm I always found myself either cropping because i Just couldn’t get closer, or taking out my phone because I didn’t have enough room to back up. 😅 Love my 28mm Ultron. Too bad about the size limit on here. Doesn’t let me attach the picture. Edited August 16, 2022 by Cthulhu 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes you might brush up against the file size limit if your files are highly detailed. Or shell out minimal coin for a premium membership I agree on a 28/50 kit, but I still reach for 35 when I can only take one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarsHP Posted October 2, 2022 Share #235 Posted October 2, 2022 The only "fault" with the 28mm Ultron II compared to the Summicron Asph II is optical vignetting IMO. It is clearly visible even in the mid-frame. However, I speculate that it has a markedly longer exit pupil, since the loss of illumination outside the center isn't as strong as the optical vignetting suggests (compared to the 'cron).

otto.f Posted October 2, 2022 Share #236 Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) I don’t see what you mean here, I see no relevant differences between the lenses? And the Leica a bit more disturbing at 18mm off centre Edited October 2, 2022 by otto.f Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Leica a bit more disturbing at 18mm off centre OK. I should perhaps point out that the images show a halogen spot out of focus, and that the interesting part is how the bright part (the halogen bulb itself) looks. 3mm off center crops shows practically no difference, but in the two others shows obvious differences between the two lenses. The Ultron II has markedly more truncation, both 10mm and 18mm off center. Regarding the Leica 18mm off center, you are right. It has a bit of a nervous bokeh tendency outside the center.

MikeMyers Posted October 18, 2022 Share #239 Posted October 18, 2022 I've just ordered one of these lenses, used, from Camera Quest. What is it that makes this lens so spectacular? Everything I've read is very positive. Maybe I'll find out for myself in a few days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonioF Posted October 18, 2022 Share #240 Posted October 18, 2022 Very happy with this lens! I got it in July and used it a lot with my M6. Here's a few shots. Welcome, dear visitor!
