A lovely small lens, dreamy when you want it to be (wide open, well as wide as it gets at 5,6)...just got back from a trip so immediately shot a few here at home on the M8.2 with IR filter. here an example,will be taking it out on the IIf and Neopan hopefully at the weekend thanks for all the input on the thread.... andy Welcome, dear visitor!

andym911 Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share #23 Posted January 24, 2009 and the color version to compare...both quick and dirty processing but you get the taste of the lens I think, sure there is some cyan vignetting but I don't really care about it... cheers andy p.s thanks Bernd Welcome, dear visitor!

bkyoung Posted January 24, 2009 Share #27 Posted January 24, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Good choice, Andy... ... I quoted the CV, but I'm intimately of your idea...In the meantime I found 3 M8 shots made with Summaron 28 : a portrait in interiors, a landscape, a family scene ... all three I think at f 8 or 11, the interiors surely at 640 ASA, probably at 160 the landscape (which was surely sharpened - UVIR on in the interiors). What a lovely group. You make me want to stop by for dinner! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgk Posted January 25, 2009 Share #28 Posted January 25, 2009 Glad you got a lens sorted Andy. Although I own nothing that old, my respect for older lenses has grown since I obtained a 35/M v.1 and 21/3.4M - these older designs might not be up to 'modern standards' but are still, IMHO, very capable lenses. If I ever decide to buy a 28mm I will probably look at these older screw thread lenses too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym911 Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share #29 Posted January 25, 2009 here a couple from this morning, both at 320 asa and f8. the lens seems to be low contrast as expected but very 'smooth'. the files really hold up in post processing and keep the highlights very well IMO.

Pity for the need of external VF... find an old SUOOQ... it's the most compact and very good for using, though super-old. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focus Posted July 23, 2009 Share #36 Posted July 23, 2009 Hi! I´m all new to this forum. I have a lens hood for the 2.8cm lens that is cone shaped. It seems as if it is older than the square one posted in this thread. Do you guys know if this hood is for the Summaron 5,6? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems as if it is older than the square one posted in this thread. Do you guys know if this hood is for the Summaron 5,6? ...welcome to the forum, Focus. Sounds like your hood is the SOOHN, which was the designated hood for the 28mm Hektor f6.3 lens (HOOPY). The designated hood for the 28mm Summaron f5.6 (SNOOX) is the rectangular SOOBK (see post #17 by jc-braconi). My assumption is that you own a SNOOX. The good news is that from a strictly functionality point of view, the SOOHN works just as well as the SOOBK on the SNOOX. Enjoy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focus Posted July 23, 2009 Share #39 Posted July 23, 2009 Thank you for the replies. Yes that´s the one I got, together with my Summaron 28, good that they work together then. Just tried some exposures with the Summaron alone, it seems like a great lens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Furst Posted December 6, 2009 Share #40 Posted December 6, 2009 Just a quick note. I love my Summaron 5,6/28 and use it on my 1c with a modern leica viewfinder. I do not need to worry about focusing and the pictures have that creamy feeling of the best screw mount lens. It is a pricy lens though. I purchased one for $700 and then found the original hood (no box) for $400 here in Seoul. The lens originally was a little cloudy but the expert repair shop here (http://www.camerafix.com.kr) removed it for $100. I have many pictures but they are not scanned yet. When I do I will post them. By the way the Leica Club here in Korea is very active with 17,000 members. They are mostly into the M series cameras.
