egibaud Posted November 14, 2006 Share #1 Posted November 14, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, Has anyone used the Tri-Elmar-M 4/28-35-50 ASPH lens with the M8 ? is F4 really to close to use this lens as standard lens? I'd buy this one and back up with a 35 summilux 1.4 for when I have limited light. What do you think? Eric Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted November 14, 2006 Posted November 14, 2006 Hi egibaud, Take a look here Tri-Elmar-M 4/28-35-50 ASPH with M8 ???. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
brucek Posted November 14, 2006 Share #2 Posted November 14, 2006 I have the Tri-Elmar and absolutely love it! And with the higher ISO capability of the M8 I find that f/4 isn't a terribly huge problem. And when it is I have some faster lenses I can use instead of it. But the TE is (IMHO) a great overall lens. Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blovitch Posted November 14, 2006 Share #3 Posted November 14, 2006 I have used this lens on the M8. It works well. My only criticism is that the frame selection feels less precise than on my M7. Other than that it is a lovely piece of glass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted November 14, 2006 Share #4 Posted November 14, 2006 No problems at all- a fine lens, the 4.0 is not a handicap under nomal light conditions. Shooting 1/16th at 4.0 gets you into some pretty dim places... The 28 part seems to perform really better than on film, where it was rather good, but not as good as 35/50 On the M8 the performance seems more even. But it still obstructs the viewfinder a bit.
