TheBestSLIsALeicaflex Posted January 12, 2022 Share #184 Â Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) For a long time I carried the holy trilogy of 35-50-90 but really gravitated now to just a 35 on a 0.72 M mount rangefinder. Â It fits how I use a rangefinder. Â Ha, ha, multiple 35's, all of them compact and light, but that's really my only focal length now. Â Still have a late Dual Range Summicron but I have to force myself to use it. Â I might go get a 90 again for those 1 in a 1000 shots where I need to compress foreground and background. Â I like to keep it all simple. Â But every so often I think about adding something wider ...

tom0511 Posted January 12, 2022 Share #188 Â Posted January 12, 2022 Focus accuracy is exactly the point why I rather use 50mm and wider on the M, and the SL2 for longer focal length, and also the reason why I dont own a m50/1.4 or M 90/2.0 any more. Â Also 28-75mm make the most sense when using the optical finder. the nokton 75/1.5 seems a very good lens, but I would rather use it withevf when wide open.

As shown above, the Leica/Leitz 73mm f/1.9 Hektor lens.  Jaeger, care to rephrase/retract your insult?  Not sure why anyone here should have to put up with such insults from the unknowing.
