The CL !!! :) I remember your shots taken with this combo from another thread here. I just bought a CL for .... my wife :D She used my IIIf / Summitar so far but wanted something smaller with meter. ( ... and I wanted to try the CL anyway ... :cool: )

 

Can you collapse the Elmar into the CL ? I can't use the Summitar with my M5 because of the meter arm.

 

Cheers,

 

Gabor

 

@Erik: I heard about a Noctilux backup !! Unfortunately I don't have one ... :eek:

nice to here that there is another CL finding a home......:)

 

I don't collapse the 50 elmar else it would touch the metering arm......just keep it extended.

 

But putting a 35/3,5 elmar on the CL makes it one of the smallest packages around!!!!!

 

Good shooting

Andy, thanks !!

 

... the CL will get a 40/2.0 Rokkor (had a Summicron-C before but couldn't it properly focus with my M6TTL) but your photos taken with the 40's 50/3.5 Elmar ....I should look for one some time.:)

This is my pride and joy.

This shot features my M3, my beloved M-Hexanons, Kodak E100G, Accura Universal zoom finder, Elmo wrist strap from an 8mm movie camera, and Domke belt pouch that normally carries my camera with attached lens and spare film.

 

The MC meter is a project. I unchromed it myself and spray painted it with black enamel paint.

 

Next action will be the unchroming of a Leica M3 top and bottom plate, as well as various other parts, to rebuild it as a black M3. Then I'll have one of each! :D

An M3 without strap lugs, self-timer or back door film dial? Interesting.
not only those, also framelines preview lever, inner flash stuffs. Some small mods are left ;)

 

It is amazing to handle and it feels good with small lenses. The same feeling with Leica Standard. If you can imagine, it is like Standard on steroids :D and it got be quite tall. :eek:

Yeah, what's that all about?????????

 

it is sometimes hard to make differences between Standard and M3 lol

 

If we take back with issue of M8, it is understandable that Leica included all stuffs on M3 in 195? for marketing purpose so I did remove when I did not need. Thats something great with mechanical cameras :p

Hi,

 

Here is my First M body....

 

M5 (2 lugs) + Summarit 1.5/50

 

smooth mechanic M5 sparked my passion on Leica (M3, IIIc and MP follow then)

 

Cheers,

Pat

The stuff I sold 5 year ago in order to go digital on Canon and L-glass. Kept CL and 40 Summicron. Last December I bought M8 + 50 Summicron and 28 Elmarit ASPH. Very happy to shoot M again.
