I hope it is silver chrome like the other reissues, not silver anodized. 

Comparing the 28 Summaron rendering images with the leaked ones of the Steel Rim reissue, it looks anodized. We'll find out soon enough, though

Excuse my ignorance - what's the difference and are they both brass?

Or anodised is anodised aluminium ?

Yes, it is. Not made of brass, thus lighter. Disadvantage: the silver anodized lenses do not match the colour of the silver chrome camera bodies.

I just got myself on “a list” at my local Leica store too, even though I don’t have any solid details… Is it brass? aluminum? 1m MFD? 0.7m MFD? silver only? or black as well??!

I just love the look of it.

Thanks for the link! 200 grams seems like it has to be aluminum. I would think brass would be a lot heavier. Looking forward to finding out. Infinity lock and 1m min focus I’m surprised to see.

Oh it’s out!! Interesting there is a second hood with room for filters, does that mean that the lens does not accept filters?! The original fits e41..hope this one does too : )

Review probably dropping anytime now on here.

1m MFD was a little disappointing. That alone is enough for me not to consider getting this otherwise very nice lens.

If I’m not mistaken the original was around 225g or so, so does not seem too off from that

Thanks for pointing that out. Two hood is interesting. I wonder if both work with e46 filters attached?
