Goggled Summaron


Recommended Posts

Not at the moment ...:o ... had one for use years ago : was a "user" item, with body so-so as cosmetics, then changed it with a similar-conditions M4, for I liked to have the 35 frame... M2+M4+CL were more than sufficient for my photo attitudes; my "collection mania" is limited to lenses... ;) ... difficult one really needs a number of Elmars 90, of which these are only a part of ...

Hi Luigi,

... wouldn't have been with that supernice case, probably I shouldnt have bought it...
Yes, those cases are very funny and quite practical too.

 

Here a Summaron twin and a Summicron-NAH with own cases

Hey Philippe... just a "philological" issue looking at your image: your cases are clearly different one from the other (one seems exactly as my one)... but I see in an old Leitz catalog (1961) that goggled 35s and DR Summicron had the same code for the case (14552R, and really my Summicron DR fits well in my case) : do you know if your "different" case is simply a previous (or later) model, or a different one, with a different code ? In your pic the two seem to have a slightly different height... is it really so ?

Ciao Luigi,

In your pic the two seem to have a slightly different height... is it really so ?
Yes it is so.

Our common case for the Summaron is code ECCOG/14552R, size 70mm high x 110mm

the biger one for Summicron-NAH is ECOOG/14564, size 78mm x 115mm.

(Codes out of older catalogue)

Hello Luigi, congratulations! Both lens and case looks great. Thanks for sharing the other pictures too, I really like to look at your (and other peoples) collections. It´s more fun and personal than to read auction catalogues or Leica books.

cheers

... I am sometimes rough with my English... :) ... and to be more precise, the depicted Summaron is my latest "collector's lens"... Summarit 75 and Summicron 35 asph for my M8 arrived later, indeed... ;)
