costa43 Posted April 25 Share #201 Posted April 25 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) It’s a new lens release so I totally understand why people will want to have an exclusive image thread dedicated to this specific model. The pre-ASPH thread is great though so it would be cool to have more people posting there in the future. (Totally selfish view as it’s easier for me to see comparisons as I’m on there a fair bit!)

Advertisement Posted April 25 Posted April 25 Hi costa43, Take a look here Modern Classic: Leica Summilux-M 50 mm f1.4. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Ken Abrahams Posted April 25 Share #202 Posted April 25 Well jolly good Evikine, that sounds like an invite to your page and to be a part of the Summilux Pre Asph image page. That is very good of you lot to invite the Classic Release images over, even though "we" have been tweaked over a bit and a bit of fun had to what to call being "born out of sequence" lens. 😀 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ken Abrahams Posted April 25 Popular Post Share #203 Posted April 25 A set of images from Anzac Day Parade this morning. I only had one camera and lens SL3S and The Summilux 1.4 pre asph V4. It's well sharp stopped down this lens and behaves like no other lens I have. Except for the C/Y Zeiss Planar 50 1.4 Welcome, dear visitor!

Kiwimac Posted May 7 Share #209 Posted May 7 Are these Classic lenses limited edition or part of the normal catalogue? The 35 Steelrim seems pretty scarce. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenInTime Posted May 7 Share #210 Posted May 7 6 hours ago, Kiwimac said: Are these Classic lenses limited edition or part of the normal catalogue? The 35 Steelrim seems pretty scarce. Both the 35 and 50mm classic line lenses are readily available from stock in UK stores. Guess the economy is slow as there was no backorder situation for 50mm 11714 even immediately after the launch.

Kiwimac Posted May 7 Share #211 Posted May 7 The “Leica Store” here in New Zealand (which is a branded website run by the importer rather than an actual Leica Store) shows the Steelrim simply as “Sold Out”. I don’t know whether that is a permanent or temporary situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swatch Posted June 2 Share #215 Posted June 2 (edited) Leica make good lenses, particularly 50mm. The latest non-asph Lux 50mm reissue ( doesn't matter it is reissue of V1 or V2 ) for sure is another good lens. So far the major difference from Lux 50mm that I am having ( v3 and asph V1 ) is longer focus thrown for more accurate focusing. If I were going to buy a 50mm lens today, I really didn't know which one to pick. Below photo from V3 at 1.4 subject is at about 2.5 meters Welcome, dear visitor!

swatch Posted June 2 Share #217 Posted June 2 (edited) have been happily using Lux v3 during film era, only add Lux asph v1 at digital era as I find Lux v3 is weak ( soft ) at close distance .... Lux asph v1 nevertheless cannot replace Lux v3 since I don't like its bokeh with ninja shape ( meaning not round circle ) and onion rings ( below photo f/2.8 ) Welcome, dear visitor!

swatch Posted June 2 Share #218 Posted June 2 (edited) Does non-asph Lux reissue close focus ( below 1 meter ) performance ( wide open ) as good as Lux asph v1? Edited June 2 by swatch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
T25UFO Posted June 3 Share #219 Posted June 3 (edited) SL3 . . . cropped. I think it was f2.8. Lens is certainly sharp and the fall off in focus is nice. Welcome, dear visitor!
