a good match for the 35 lux pre asph?

[Bruno Gracia]

I will acquire a lux 35 pre asph (made in germany "LEICA") soon, and I'm wondering myself, which lens will match the character of it better.

Cron 50 collapsible
Lux 50 v2
Sonnar 50 ZM
Nokton 50 (later model)

Please, only these four "pretender".

I don't know how to start poll?

Cheers.

PS: Holy sh**, post number 666 :angel:

Summicron collapsible or an early pre-asph if you need 1.4.

Summilux 50 pre-asph (v2)
Summicron 50 (v2)

Correct answer

I rather prefer small Lenses but thinking in a good enlargement maybe Lux is better than the collapsible, and Zeiss better than the Lux, if not with am elmar I will have enough, is mainly for portraiture.

My experience is that any of the lenses mentioned will render more sharply and with better contrast, at f/1.4, than my 35mm pre-Lux can do. Compared to the 35 pre-Lux when stopped down to f/2, the collapsicron is a good candidate. By f/4, the Collapsicron or Summilux. By f/5.6 or f/8, perhaps my black 11817 made from 1969 to 1979.

similarly, what 50 would be a good match for a 35 Summaron 2.8?

 

[Vobluda]

Just keep in mind that Summiluxes 50mm v1 and v2 are focusing from 1m.

 

[Bruno Gracia]

at the end have bought a summilux black v2 from the 70's, let's see.

Will try the cron collapsible as soon as I can to decide.
