[ATTACH=full]1434737[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1434738[/ATTACH] Leica M8 Tri-Elmar (50mm) Just what I needed to see Bill, excellent. I just purchased a 28-35-50 MATE (first version) with hiking and landscapes in mind, it's nice to see how well it performs in the wild. I have an Alaska trip planned for next month and except when I need to use my 21/2.8 Elmarit, I plan to keep it attached as much as possible. The frequent lens changes slowed me down and dust getting on the sensor was a constant battle! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling it was one of the many stupid moves I've made over the years. FWIW, the lens formulas are identical on both versions of the lens; the only real advantage of vs. II is the depth of field scales for each FL. 1 “When you come to a fork in the road, take it ...” – Yogi Berra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selling it was one of the many stupid moves I've made over the years. FWIW, the lens formulas are identical on both versions of the lens; the only real advantage of vs. II is the depth of field scales for each FL. A common complaint was the speed, but for my purposes that's no factor. I've always wanted one of these but the prices were a bit out of range. I finally found one that's not pretty, but functional at a great price; it's all I need, especially if I'm going to be on the trail with it. I've seen pictures of the DOF scale on version 2... it looks like an electronics wiring diagram! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arthur_mcculloch2 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 My contributions are scant. The first an old shot from my M6 - you can tell film from the grain, dust marks, etc. I think it would have been a summitar, but memory evades me lately: The next is a shot of the support worker who comes to help my stepson Shawn, both are in it, as is my beautiful spouse. It's an indulgence, I know. Shawn looks, as he does normally, vacant and glazed. Regards, Arthur (apiarist1). Once my arm gets better, I'll be out and about again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

httpwww.photo.netbarry Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Sort of an impromptu self-portrait from the time of the 2nd invasion of Iraq as part of a documentary project for a photo class which was cover political and election related subject matter. 2nd is another retread that I that had an interesting contrast in irony. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
