Guest chris_h Posted June 30, 2006 Share #21 Posted June 30, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Not only - but I prefere it. And I will prefere the 35mm Summicron for the digital M - by sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted June 30, 2006 Posted June 30, 2006 Hi Guest chris_h, Take a look here 50mm's all round .... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
gberger Posted July 1, 2006 Share #22 Posted July 1, 2006 I've used 50mm since 1945 as my primary lens (IIIc, M4, M6, M7). It's just like a previous poster's comments - - I "see" things in 50mm. Now, I'm using the 24mm for some shots, as it can capture the extreme wide angle views needed for crowded narrow streets and interiors. But, I gotta' use the external viewfinder and really triple check the composition. Two completely different shooting styles.

square_one Posted July 1, 2006 Share #23 Posted July 1, 2006 Have had many Ms since 1958, all w/ just a single 50 (except a M4-2w/35lux in the early 80s). I've been off in the World of 8x10 the last eight years and even there have been diagnosed as obsessively anal in my mission to keep-it-simple. I now await a beyond-simple O-serie with that terrific and tiny 50mm Elmar - which in time, for my own reasons, will be my only camera! I don't expect anybody to understand. First post. Nice to be aboard. Bruce Terry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DavidNZ Posted July 1, 2006 Share #24 Posted July 1, 2006 I am constantly amazed how versatile the 50 is, and that's the rigid 'cron. There are times I really do need another lens, but I wouldn't be without a 50. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
