50mm 1.5 Nokton (for Prominent) on Leica M8

[raid]

I once in a while use my Prominent mount Nokton 50mm 1.5 on the M8, using an Amedeo adapter Prominent-to-M. I did not adjust the image files for contrast or similar things. I used the software Perfect-Effects-9 to get a version similar to a Polaroid image and also a B&W image.

Here are two images that I took last week. I tried out three variations of the two images.

This lens is a wonderful portrait lens, in my opinion. It is sharp enough but is not too sharp for a portrait lens. It is very well built.

I took yesterday some photos at the beach with the Nokton and the M8.

Very nice. I'm glad I got an adapter for my Prominent Nokton too. Not cheap though.

Thanks. What did you pay for the adapter? It will also work with the Ultron 50/2.

I took some photos this morning with the M8 and the Nokton 50/1.5 for the Prominent.
