okproace Posted April 12, 2022 Share #1 Posted April 12, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) I love this cosina lens. It's a very tiny lens, the black paint color very match the MP black paint. Although I make a mistake, purchased a L39 version, but 35mm frameline seems more suit for me. (M-mount use 50mm frameline) Here are some samples I took with film Ilford XP2 Super 400(BW) and M9-p(color). Welcome, dear visitor!

Advertisement Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 Hi okproace, Take a look here Voigtlander Heliar 40mm F2.8 Aspherical black paint. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
kivis Posted April 13, 2022 Share #2 Posted April 13, 2022 Another mighty nice lens from the CV people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shirubadanieru Posted April 13, 2022 Share #3 Posted April 13, 2022 That looks great, mine just arrived today. I got the L39 as well to use 35mm frame lines, which are much cleaner than the 50/75 combo and also 35mm frame lines are much closer to the 40mm actual field of capture (as per multiple threads in this forum) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess a 35 is closer to 40 (+5) than 50 to a 40 (-10). Post pictures soon 🙏 Edited April 13, 2022 by Dennis typos + added last sentence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stefanusj Posted April 14, 2022 Share #5 Posted April 14, 2022 i'm still waiting for the lens also. i've been using rokkor 40mm with 50mm framelines, and i like it that way, because in my mindset i try to frame it with 50mm, but got extra space to straighten the pictures. 1 hour ago, shirubadanieru said: That looks great, mine just arrived today.

pippy Posted April 14, 2022 Share #6 Posted April 14, 2022 Nice Lens! Something definitely worth consideration. As a huge fan of the 40mm f/l and rarely needing 'fast glass' that is really appealing to me as I could use the LTM version as my regular lens on my standardised 1930 Leica 1. At the moment here in the UK I can only see the Nickel version in M-mount. Must keep an eye open for when the LTM version arrives... Although the Nickel version would be more period-correct with the Leica 1 I'd probably go for the Black option as I'd also take the chance to use the lens with my M bodies and the Nickel style would look a trifle out of place.

cboy Posted April 15, 2022 Share #7 Posted April 15, 2022 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Awesome thats its so tiny without the hood. What new lenses nowadays have a 34mm filter thread? Lol I got the ltm version too to use on my fp, but Im considering of purchasing the black ltm - m rayqual adapter to use it on my M so it all blacked put without exposing the silver mount to make it all stealth.

28framelines Posted April 15, 2022 Share #10 Posted April 15, 2022 I have a question about this lens (or 40mm in general on Leica): does the rangefinder still provide accurate focus with different framelines? Either with an LTM version or with M mount? Maybe it’s a stupid question, but figured I’d ask anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
