What is the main advantage for shooting like this? I suppose the negatives turn out really thin and grainy this way. No, the opposite. By overexposing and underdeveloping, a bit, you soften the contrast while retaining the detail, depending on which developer you use, such as Ilford Perceptol. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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! That's a great lens in general and for use on an M6. I also like it on digital. The other 35mm Cron version are good, too. For film, even an 35mm Cron ASPH will render well, too (though I find it a little "clinical" on digital Ms).

Dennis Posted October 8, 2021 Share #23  Posted October 8, 2021 What about the mighty Voigtlander 35/1.4 II? Unusual nobody mentioned yet Then you choose the coated: SC or MC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I decided I will not buy non Leica lenses this one is really tempting.. especially the SC. Did you try or own one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I decided I will not buy non Leica lenses this one is really tempting.. especially the SC. Did you try or own one? I owned it for a few months. Then I had the chance to exchange it for another lens (I was curious to try lens B). Now, I will keep lens B, and as soon as I can, I will rebuy the Nokton. IMHO, it's a must-have. There are people here comparing it with the 35 Lux pre asph., people using it with M10M. Film people (and Digital also) loves it a lot. My copy (and the next to buy) will be MC. I can't speak about SC character. But browse the forum. There are plenty of threads talking about the O&O Nokton. In a few words, is sharp at some f/stops and glowy (in a good way, at least for me) wide open. And even at 1.4, it's very sharp in the center. Highly recommend it. I  own a 35 Summicron asph. v1, and it's now permanently attached to my M10. The 35/2.8 ZM is wow, outstanding IQ. The CV 35/2 Ultron II, 35 Summarit... There is an abundance of options. 🙂  1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have Summarit-M 2.5/35 so E39 filter to use my E39 filters and to match my other E39 lenses when I combine a set.  For example I use E39 filters with Monochrom, so the set 35/50/90 LTM A36 lenses here has adapter for E 39 filter SOOGZ Welcome, dear visitor!

a.noctilux Posted October 9, 2021 Share #33  Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) Summaron 3.5/3.5cm is a very good lens, of low contrast type when used wide open, some "Leica glow" ( I like it with some subjects, no other lens is so lovely in such small package )  on M10,here  Welcome, dear visitor!

Great, do you think I can achieve these kind of soft pics with these tonalities?  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted October 9, 2021 Share #35  Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) Of course you can, overexpose, and/or use vaseline on filter or just put in front soft filter. This kind of soft rendering can be done by any lens 🙂 with "knowledge" and know how. Choose the film with care, and that will do.  Take into account that most LTM Leitz lenses focus to 1m, while M lenses go to 70cm with most ( ...80cm with Summarit-M 35mm, same as Summicron-C 40mm ).

Couldn't be happier; its tiny, cheap, has a focus tab, and renders nicely. Even if I would win the lottery, I would find it hard to justify buying a cron or a lux. Sure, someday this will happen, I flirt with the idea daily, but as said, it's just sooo difficult to justify.    I have the Summicron 40mm equivalent semi glued to my M6!  I also have a 35mm Summicron ASPH v2, but most of the time I leave that in my M10-P & keep the 40mm on the M6.  Always been happy with the results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
