sandyfaf Posted February 26, 2022 Share #1 Posted February 26, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have the opportunity to buy a ZEISS Biogon T* 2/35 ZM at a good price, problem is I won’t have the chance to try it on camera (CL), as I it will have to be posted to me. It looks like the focus barrel protrudes from the mount at the back and I’m worried it won’t be suitable to use on the CL. I have the Leica m adaptor but worry it’s not deep enough. Any help appreciated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.piras Posted February 26, 2022 Share #2 Posted February 26, 2022 Never tested personally but searching on internet (flickr) you can see many pictures made with CL T* 35/f2 and also seems to react wonderfully. i don’t know if i can share links but can really be found 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickP Posted February 26, 2022 Share #3 Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) I have had several copies of the 35 ZM.. used on my TL2 and CL.. always colorful and sharp. I am quite sure the f2.0 is just as good. CL..Zeiss 35mm f 2.8 ZM Welcome, dear visitor!

sandyfaf Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share #4 Posted February 26, 2022 Just worried about the back of the lens going into the body of the camera Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickP Posted February 26, 2022 Share #5 Posted February 26, 2022 Can not give you a definitive answer.. sorry, only have had the 2.8. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommonego@gmail.com Posted February 26, 2022 Share #6 Posted February 26, 2022 I don't think the protrusion from theback of the lens will have an issue, you have 10mm or so from the front of the M to L adapter to the body area behind the mount inside the CL. My 25mm Canon LTM lens fits fine and most of the lens is behind the mount. The collapsible 50 Summicron will fit collapsed on a CL. Like Rick there is no problem with the Ziess 35 f2.8 on the CL it has a rear portion of the lens behind the mount. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyfaf Posted March 10, 2022 Author Share #8 Posted March 10, 2022 Ended up buying a Voigtlander 35mm f2.5 for a great price. Early days but really pleased so far. Thank you all for your advice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
