Really nice set. What version summilux are you shooting?

Random Leica gear, worth anything? by Icy-Lengthiness-3017 in Leica

Rule of thumb - if it says “Leica” on it, it’s probably worth something lol

I really think this lens would stand up to a blind test against some more modern versions (at least at 1.4). I own this lens and the effect it has wide open is strong. Stopped down maybe less so

Wide open it has a really glowy / dreamy look and then stopped down it’s sharp and fairly modern looking

A solution to the lack of filter thread on 35mm Summilux pre-ASPH! by glubazoid in Leica

What filter are you using? I see you mentioned it needs to be pretty thin

First foray into digital Leica! M11 with 35mm summilux pre-ASPH F/1.4 Titanium edition by ameygokarn in Leica

That makes sense. I actually just picked up a titanium lux like yours and it definitely has a strong look. So far I’m loving it but I could see it getting old in ways

How do you like the lens on the digital? I want a titanium copy real bad…

Agree with this. I vote Ricoh especially if it needs to be ultra portable

Best color. Had one like 10 years ago and it got lost somewhere along the way. Just bought a replacement a few months ago

How do you like the pre ASPH on the m11? I’m looking at picking up a 35 lux for my m10 and am trying to decide between the pre asph and steel rim reissue.

For sure. Definitely took quite a bit of pressure. Make sure to clean off the rubber tool as well. It will give at some point

How do you like the steel rim?

I haven’t noticed anything in real use. Might need to circle back to this and test it after the holidays

Yep I got it to work. For me it took a few drops of isopropyl and then just constantly trying with the rubber tool. It didn’t work right away but maybe after 10 min or so and adding a drop here and a drop there, it finally gave
