I hyper focus at f8 with auto ISO and speed at 125/per second. Focus is good from 7 feet to infinity. So I am always in focus. I'm rocking.

Yep - and its great at f/4.0 also.

I coded mine as a 21 Elmarit pre-ASPH, and it is a dead ringer for that lens's Mandler color.

And tine-eee!

For those interested, the Skopar 21/4 can be pen coded as Elmarit 21/2.8 with a single black coding pit (000001). See pen coded flange below. Beware that early copies of the lens have no groove for 6-bit coding on the flange though.

Thanks for the reminder! I bought mine about when the M9 came out and used it on my M6 & M9 and enjoyed it, but haven't used it much on my M10. I had coded  it for my M9, and was pleased to see the code still worked on M10 without wearing off, even though mine is an early one with a flat flange. I'm sure it would wear off with enough use, but lasts quite well for occasional use. I have a VC finder used with the M6 & 9, but I like using the 020 on M10 - a very usable combination.

I have an old copy of the Skopar 21/4 that i butchered with a dremel tool but i did it so badly that both my M11 and M240 see it as uncoded. I finally bought a new copy with a groove for 6-bit coding and it works perfectly on both bodies. BTW the optical finder i used to use was a 15mm made for the Epson R-D1 (below) but i now use almost exclusively the Visoflex 2 on the M11. FWIW.

Interesting to see that it works pretty well in quite dim light (although experience with a 135 f/4, and briefly with the 24 Elmar, in the same indoor location, should have reduced any doubts).

M10 vanilla with 21 Skopar at f/4, and 1/125 second and ISO 10000. B&W conversion from color.
