costa43 Posted May 20 Share #225 Posted May 20 Week 20 - The mother in law was 70 on Saturday so like any responsible adult would do, we booked a hiking trip on her birthday. She ended up reaching the summit of Śnieżka, the highest peak in the Czech Republic (1603m) A great way to spend your 70th if you ask me! Welcome, dear visitor!

Nice pic Philip, may I ask how you adjust the CPL on the 35mm pre asph? I’m assuming you have a 49mm fitted in the hood? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m assuming you have a 49mm fitted in the hood?... I happen to use a Series VII Leica 13370 CPL which drops into the 12504 hood. I know that 49mm filters will fit inside the two body-parts of the 12504 but I'm not sure a regular 49mm CPL - with it having, in effect, two filter rings - would be thin enough to sit within the two parts of the 12504 and as the v2 Summilux has no filter thread the 12504 hood is really the only practical option if filters are to be used. The good news is that 13370 CPL's can be found for very reasonable sums. I believe I paid £40 for mine which is roughly the going rate for a 49mm CPL from any decent manufacturer. I've written quite a bit about 'my' approach previously (link at bottom of post) but, in brief, this is how I use the 12504 / 13370 with the 35 v2 Summilux. Most CPL filters will have a datum; a mark which shows in which orientation the filter should be placed for 'strongest' effect in the vast majority of situations. As a general rule when used with the datum pointing either straight-up or straight down (i.e. at 0 degrees and 120 degrees) the darkening of the sky (for instance) will be at its most profound when shooting in 'landscape' orientation. When shooting in 'portrait' orientation simply rotate the filter (in my case rotate the hood) through 90 degrees. On the 13370 the datum is a yellow dot. On other filters there might be simply a silver index-mark. With the 39mm POOTR there point is indicated by the position of a 'P' on the filter rim. All of these marks serve the same purpose. By way of illustrating the general principle here is a Hoya 43mm CPL on the 40 f1.4 Nokton showing index mark at 0 degrees; 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! As the two rings of the filter are both flush with the narrow section of the filter bayonet of the front-lens barrel the regular Voigt. LH-6 can still be used. The Filter, as bought, only had the datum marked on the side of the ring so I simply filed a small notch on the front edge so that it could be seen with the hood mounted; I have also used this method on other CPL filters for other lenses without having any nasty surprises. Here, on the other hand, is the 'exploded' set of bits for the 13370 / 12504. If the yellow dot is aligned with either of the two silver cinch-clips these clips can then be used to verify orientation of the filter; As you will be well aware some situations might benefit were the hood to be rotated to 'plus or minus' 90 degrees but for (almost) all practical situations this technique works very well. As I habitually use the 35 v2 / CPL with the M-D Typ-262 there is no possibility of verifying results out in the field but I've hardly ever been surprised with what has been captured. One very notable exception occurred when I was first getting the hang of things and was down by the jetty (apologies to Dr. Feelgood!) snapping HMS Belfast as a test-outing for the filter. The results from that trip can be seen in post #16 in the following link. FWIW I found the experiment to be very interesting indeed! There is quite a bit more in the text which might be very useful for you to read. My first two (hopefully useful!) contributons (#7, #16) deal with general 'in use' stuff and there is a further post (#23) where the topic of colour-cast with a CPL is examined; https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/380823-circ-polarizers-on-m-glass/#comments Hope that helps somewhat!

Philip. Thank you ever so much for the detailed response Philip, it is incredibly helpful and well timed. I'm off to Greece soon and have a CPL for all my lenses besides the 35mm pre-ASPH. I've always just dropped in a 49mm UV or colour filter into the hood but of course, this does not work with a standard CPL. I will source a 13370 for my trip. Have a lovely day.

Hello, Costa, and thanks for the reply. Glad to hear that it might have been of some use. I did, however, have a bit of a Senior Moment earlier when I wrote; "either straight-up or straight down (i.e. at 0 degrees and 120 degrees)". Clearly this should have read "at 0 degrees and 180 degrees." Apologies for any confusion! I do trust that you have a wonderful time in Greece and I'm sure we will all look forward to seeing some of the images you will capture during your trip once you return home.

No confusion Philip, I read it as 180 degrees in my own mind as I'm familiar with how to use them but always dismissed the option for this lens. Lots of pictures to come from Greece, I'll be there for a while! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted May 26 Share #234 Posted May 26 (edited) 21 / 52. Way back in week 19/52 I posted a snap of some newly refurbished subway / underpass brickwork; the tunnel which served passengers who had ventured to the Crystal Palace High Level Station in order to visit the Crystal Palace itself. Today's offering might be seen as 'C.P.H.L.S.' History Lesson Pt. 2......😸...... On the closure of the station the rail tracks were lifted and the route taken by the trains reverted, slowly, back to nature. Here is a pic taken yesterday which shows just how much the landscape has been reclaimed. 'Cox's Walk' Footbridge which connects Sydenham Hill Wood and Dulwich Wood, London SE20. M-D Typ-262, 1974 35mm Summilux v2, Circ. Pola; 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! It might be hard to believe but the position where I was standing would have been in the middle of the railway tracks looking 'on the up line' from the Nunhead Tunnel (which leads directly to the Crystal Palace High Level Station) back towards London. The bridge seen here is a refurbished / partially refabricated (and, it has to be said, technically improved and safer!) facsimile of the original which was built in the 1860's. The piers on which it rests are the 160-year-old originals and history tells us that it was from atop this bridge that Camille Pissarro made his painting of 'Lordship Lane Station'. A link to the Pissarro painting which, rather appropriately, is on display in the Dulwich Picture Gallery just a mile or so from where the painting was made; https://www.kingandmcgaw.com/prints/camille-pissarro/lordship-lane-station-dulwich-427884 Philip.
