New to the group and hoping maybe someone can help me out. I just got one, does anyone out here use one? I loaded it up with a 1.3 Wein cell. I was curious that when the battery test switch is depressed the needle shoots all the way down past the silver dot to the bottom of the window . When...

I recently received a CV 35mm LTM f/1.7 and the advice that it is a good lens. I have been using an old Canon 35mm LTM f/2.0 (Black) with pretty good results. And I have the CV 35mm f/1.4 Nokton II. So why not compare them? I threw in an old '51 Jupiter-12. They are in order Canon, CV...

The purpose of this was to get a better understanding of the FOV for each lens. I would prefer to select a lens based on the location and then fine tune any zooming with my feet. The settings for the camera, lenses and Lightroom were the same. I wanted to try to minimize any influence on the...

Can anyone explain the performance difference between the two? I have found several good clean copies and am trying to decide which I should consider. Another option would be to get the Voigtlander Ultron and the 50 Nokton 1.2 or 50 Lanthar APO

Some of the first shots off my new M10-P with this lens. SOOC. First shot was rotated slightly to get it level. Wide open. It should be noted, although this lens shipped with the usual screw and chart for making adjustments, absolutely none were needed.

This is really cool for L-Mount. https://www.mirrorlessrumors.com/astrodesign-and-samyang-join-the-l-mount-alliance/

Leica Q3 Mirrorless Full-Frame Camera review and user report by Thorsten Overgaard Looks great, but I am keeping my Q2.

My son and I swapped lenses for today. I got his 50MM Summicron Rigid (circa 1957). He got my Voigltlander 35mm Classic Nokton MC. Here are a couple of shots with the M10-R and the 50. The shot of the silo is with the 24 Elmarit (Circa 1996). So the 24 is not as old as the Summicron.... It...

I have the Contax RF to M adapter which I must say is enormous fun, plus Contax RF 50mm lenses are generally smaller than their Leica counterparts and this adapter lets me focus closer. My question is can I get away with using this same adapter with Nikon S RF lenses? Yes, I know Amedeo do an...

Through the Window..

First outing with the lens. Photo #1 at f2, #2 at f4. Photo #3 at f2

Just got it today and meant to go out longer but the weather went downhill quickly. I got a few quick samples of a couple of my usual suspects and came home to post them before work. Initial impression is very positive.

Resistance is Futile. I like fast lenses. This one was $550 from Popflash, one of the best camera dealers in the country. I've bought and sold on consignment through them. This is the "Titanium" finish version, which has a 62mm filter ring- as opposed to the 67mm filter of the standard lens...

Summer is just around the Corner. Summer means Pools and the Beach. I'm ready for it. Some shots of Summers past. My friend at the party had his M9 with 50/1.0 Noctilux, borrowed it to take these shots. I bought my M9 about a year later.

I recently acquired this lens (black finish) complete with LLL 39mm UV filter and screw in lens hood. Can’t consider the original which seems to attract US$30k at the moment. Took it out for an initial shoot late yesterday.

https://leica-camera.com/en-US Leica brings out the fourth-generation Leica M monochrome camera. Makes me happy- lots of debate over the benefits of a digital monochrome camera. Kodak had wanted to do a monochrome version of the M8. The engineer at Kodak told me so when I called in 2010 asking...

Hi, I am Jay. I am in Sugar Land, Texas. My first real camera was a Kodak Retina IIa. That is when I fell in love with rangefinders. I used my brother’s M3 on occasion and had a Canonette for a while. After that it was Nikon SLRs and DSLRs. I have now back in the Leica fold with a CL and a M10-R.

OK, here you go!! If you want to see what the Mitakon 28mm f/5.6 is capable of producing...here you go! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

More Leica, but this time Wide and Ultra Wide! Still trying to get to grips with the 12mm, but I got to use it and practice in order to understand it! Started today with the Ultra Wide as the 28mm should get here on 4/10. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Going to take a little break from Leica for a minute - even though I think that I could shoot that wonderful machine forever! So, Fuji X-Pro2 with primes! 16mm f/2.8, 35mm f/1.4, 56/1.2 and 90/2 If weather permits, will get some images posted as soon as tomorrow.

I think I have things sorted with this kit, so will be shooting exclusively with it for this week and with the Zeiss pair of lenses. I'm also experimenting with the in camera JPG settings so shooting DNG+JPG - and this week will sick with the B&W settings for that as well. A bit of cross...

Walking down town with my friend Kat in Calgary

Is there a way to get alerted about L-mount posts only? I have no interest (nor budget) for Leica, and the L-mount threads are scattered throughout. I don't really want to watch the whole sub-forum.

Mr. Ben loves photography, sets up my CL via FOTOS and then takes pictures.. 1st Selfie Concentration..

Leica CL/60mm Macro Elmarit TL

I've had this lens since December 2022, in "terms that I am used to" it is an Operational Development Model, or a prototype. Five of these lenses exist. I'm providing feedback that will go into the Production version of the lens. This lens is based on the 1934 Carl Zeiss Jena 5cm F2 Sonnar...

As you may have seen in the "Latest Acquisitions" thread, I'm joining the Leica cult. Again, thanks to @MoonMind for his ability to put up with an answer a lot of my questions. :) I've sent away my trade and am waiting for the transaction to complete. This is the gear that I am planning on...

So .... what do we think about the new Sigma 50 1.4 for L mount? I'm quite interested in having an auto focus 50mm as at the moment I only have the wieldy Sigma 35mm Art. I was thinking about selling the SL2s and buying something else with lighter af lenses.

Anyone got any views on these two lenses? The 70-300 seems to get very mixed reviews which leads me to conclude there's a lot of copy variation. The 70-200 looks a better option, but it's more pricey of course and only goes to 200mm without the TC.

There's now a lot of leaked information on the S5 II. It looks like it's the same body size and shape as the current S5 with the same sensor, but now with PDAF, an improved EVF, and a few other tweaks. In a strange twist, it's now available in two forms - the S5II and the S5IIx. The X variant...

Alright Leicaphiles- Hopefully, my first M mount camera will be inbound to me shortly (M-P 240) and I’ll be looking to pick up some lenses for it. I’ve decided on 3 lenses, and would like to know from anyone that’s owned them, what your thoughts are. Or, if I’m overlooking another obvious...

Leica announced it will bring back the film camera or more specific the Leica M6. According to the news, which cites Leicas press release, the new M6 will mostly stay true to the original one, however some improvements were made to the viewfinder, the rangefinder mechanism, the light meter as...

They really are knocking them out at the minute aren't they. https://www.cosina.co.jp/voigtlander/en/vm-mount/nokton-vintage-line-35mm-f1-5-aspherical/

Last night, I found the last original BP-SCL1 for my M8 bloated up; I'm down to one aftermarket battery now, and that one tends to lose charge quickly. Leica has ceased producing and selling the original, and apart from the second-hand market being sucked bone-dry around here, my desire to use...

Samuel Street life/ Samuel Lin Taro obviously picked a somewhat absurd title, but does a pretty good job in the article telling what that rings true for him (obviously not everyone). I found it interesting. I've watched his channel skew inevitably towards Leica, more for the prestige and the...
