To give repair person the benefit of doubt (we all have bad days) I would like to restrain form mentioning name in this post. Please email me off the forum at henrykb �at� hbipe �dot� com and I will share the name and you decide if you go there.

Until now I always sent all my leicas and lenses to Leica NJ for any
work needed. This time after reading one of the posts here I decided
to send it elsewhere. In addition repair person is only few hours
away from where I live. When I called to confirm that shipment
arrived and for estimate I have received worst treatment ever. Now I
am having hard time to deal with it. Should I call and cancel the
work and send it to Leica NJ, I know that no work has been started so
far on my camera. Or just keep quiet, get the work done pay and never
come back to that person. I have no reason to question quality of
work, but have a hard time to deal with circumstances and the fact
that I will actually pay someone for their discourtesy.
Care to share your thoughts?

Let me try once more, first time measurement got formatted wrong.
Starting from the last A in Canada, going directly down there is what looks like light reflection of some sort just about 0.75 inches. That is what I think Rob points out. If you go another 0.75 inches down there is a grey/white streak almost like crescent moon looking, what is that?

Currently I am looking to purchase 135mm 2.8 Leica R. It looks that
there may be some problem with this lens. Please let me know what you
think about the lens pictured at the url below.

Thank you in advance.

Mint, like new 35 summicron ASPH for just below $1000.

Please share any experience with Telyt 350/4. I am looking for longer
Leica lens and this is just about what I can afford. I already have
180/3.4 and looked at 250/4. Plan to use it on R9 and Canon 20D for
nature and landscape photos. Please post some pictures from 350 or
point me to the site where I get some idea about that lens. Dug Herr
has already covered 250/4, 280/2.8 and 280/4 in another thread so
280s are a side and out of my reach.
Thanks in advance Henryk.

Thanks Doug.
Thank you for advice and your pictures are outstanding.

Doug, how about 280mm f2.8?
Based on the advice and results from you website and my financial capabilities I am actively looking for 250mm 4.0 telyt. Which of these three 250 f4, 280 APO f4 or 280 APO f2.8 is best performer in you opinion, considering picture quality.

Bob it is not, they did not put EOS weather seals. But on the other hand Leica does not freeze in arctic either?

Leon, If you can hold on to 10D or at least your L lenses. I did the same, sold my 10D, got MP and M7. Some fine 35, 50 and 90 mm Leica lenses and found that in some cases I need more accurate metering. I am amateur photographer and can not always accurately assess difficult high contrast, bright light and hard shadows exposures. M system meters are not that sophisticated. I went out and got R9 for that purpose and some fine R lenses.
I always had small A70 canon digital point and shoot. My wife uses that most of the time, when I used it I missed the instant gratification of digital results, or disappointment in my case. In any case I got 20D just for that purpose and find that I use M systems for indoor no flash photography and outside when compact camera is desired, R for outside slides and print photos, R for inside print with flash, and digital for all of the above. Use digital for about 25% of all my photos, rest is Leica. One thing I would like to do is to get an adapter and try R glass on 20D, perhaps one of these days ?

Check if the ISO dial in the back of the camera is stet on zero for exposure compensations.
I move that dial once in the while when changing film.
Hope that is it not the metering system.

Thinking about Sigma 120-300mm for my 20D.
Anyone uses that lens on 20D, will it work with canon x1.4 newer
version II extender?
Thanks in advance.
-
God that is.

Good help us.

Could someone recommend any good sources for Leica new or used gear
in Albany NY area?
Thanks in advance,
Henryk.

Happy New Year!!!

Alan are these crops of full frames?
I have new VC 35 f2.5 and center is fine but edges suffer from vignetting below 5.6.

Yes he is a class act and he is hosting Leica day tomorrow (12/10). See you there.
-
Thanks again to all. I got the lens.

Recently I purchased R4 SLR camera and I am looking for 50 mm
Summicron R for it. Yesterday I have been offered one of these
lenses, made in Canada with build-in hood. All points to second
version of Summicron, but serial # on it is 2777958. According to
kbcamera.com this is still first version.
Could someone help me verify correct version of these lens.
Thank you in advance.
Henryk.

Well? if you think other cameras and glass beside leica can do that ? how about posting one of these pictures?
What would be interesting is to make larger print of that photo and then compare it with prints of the same size from other cameras.
Beside leica I use canon digital and film and for my money nothing comes close to quality and color rendition of leica.
Henryk.
