  3. A scene from the Belward Farm, Maryland on 1991-expired Panatomic-X. Leica IIIg, 50mm f/2 Summicron (version 1, collapsible) And many thanks to Bill for starting this week's thread! We had a major pet emergency to deal with all day, but it turned out ok in the end.
  4. Great Falls, the C&O Canal, Maryland
  5. Morning, Inside Passage south of Juneau, Alaska.
  6. Welcome everyone to Week 36 of 2022, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! Here’s a scene of the Seneca Aqueduct, Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, Maryland. Leica M Type 240, 28-35-50mm f/4 Tri-Elmar-M Asph at 35mm.
  7. I just shot a roll of '91-expired FX yesterday; I exposed it at ISO 25 and gave it an extra 30 seconds in HC-110B (at 20 degrees C the sheet call for 4+30, I gave it 5) and I was very happy with the result, very little base fog. Leica IIIg, 50/2 Summicron (v.1 Collapsible)
  8. Many thanks Michael; I had two opportunities to visit the Tracy Arm (including this last cruise) and was denied each time, the first due to a passenger medical emergency, the second due to fog. Maybe the third time will be a charm! Where are you going next? Maybe we'll cross at the same time. :)
  9. Welcome everyone to Week 35 of 2022, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! Here’s a scene strolling down Alaskan Way, Seattle. Leica IIIg, 50mm f/2 Summicron (Version 1, collapsible), Kodak 400TMax.

  14. Just returned last night from an Alaska cruise, many thanks to Bill for getting the thread going this week! Here is a scene atop Castle Hill of downtown Sitka, Alaska with St. Michael's Russian Orthodox Cathedral in the center. Leica M240, 28-35-50mm f/4 Leica Tri-Elmar-M Asph (at 50mm)
  15. Nice compositions, exquisite detail and tones. Those CV lenses easily pull their weight.
  16. Thank you Christopher. The Summitar, despite its age definitely has its unique character! And yes, to see the temple in contrast to its surroundings forces a balance between old and new; to me was akin to seeing the Alamo for the first time in downtown San Antonio.
  17. Welcome everyone to Week 32 of 2022, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! Here’s a scene from my archives on October 2012 of the front of Longshan Temple, Taipei. Leica M6, 50mm f/2 Summitar, Kodak ColorPlus 200
  18. Although not answering your question directly, here’s some more info from the Leica Wiki site: SYOOM - Leica Wiki (English) The forum discussion links may reveal something more specific.
  19. Your reference is a good one. There are several regular participants of that forum whose knowledge is encyclopedic and will go to great lengths to provide an answer.
  20. Welcome everyone to Week 31 of 2022, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! Here’s a scene from 2012 during a night stroll of downtown Taipei. Leica M6, 50mm f/2 Summitar (with the LTM Adapter), Kodak ColorPlus 200
  21. 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!
  22. 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!
