BarberShop Posted February 6, 2022 Share #1 Posted February 6, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello, During lockdown I went hiking with an old Nikon SLR and Minolta Rokkor 28mm f2. I got some crazy results 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! Now that I'm on the Leica system I'm looking for another 28mm with similar flaring characteristics. Can anyone recommend me something?

jankap Posted February 6, 2022 Share #2 Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) An adapter for Minolta? Perhaps one needs 2 adapters. Edited February 6, 2022 by jankap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted February 6, 2022 Share #3 Posted February 6, 2022 Yes, adapter Minolta to M of course ! @BarberShop If you like six-blade-flare, Canon tiny LTM 3.5/28mm that I have can be a candidate. Leitz/Leica lenses have more blade numbers, even some that I like do have round aperture when close down. Special mention for the Summaron-M 28mm the flare "spot" is bigger than we think and in many contre-jour, they are roundish The right one Welcome, dear visitor!

jankap Posted February 6, 2022 Share #6 Posted February 6, 2022 You could add "manual" to the list.😋. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarberShop Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share #7 Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I can zone focus as well as the next man but I would prefer to have a native LTM or M mount solution that I can shoot through the rangefinder. Anyone have any expderience with the Canon/Nikon/Voigtlander/Minolta 28mm f3.5 LTM options? Edited February 6, 2022 by BarberShop Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarberShop Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share #8 Posted February 6, 2022 I must make a correction to my original post. The lens that those pictures were shot on was actually the Vivitar 28mm f2 MC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
