Anyone using a 75CV on the Leica CL ?

Not the CV75 but the Jupiter-9 85/2. With good results. I found that the short base length of the rf isn't that much trouble.

i was thinking a cv75 would be ideal, size wise.

i'm carrying the canon 100/3.5 with it but have not used it yet.
my 85/2 is just too heavy for comfort on such a small camera, i think.

I did use the 75 with the CL. It gave good results. But I got fed up of guesstimating the framing, managed to pick up an 90 Elmar C for a low price, and sold on the 75 for a fair amount more. Yes, the Elmar is a stop slower, but it too gives fantastic results and is amazingly compact.

Only problem... it's front heavy. Slipped offf my shoulder last Saturday and now there's a nioe ding on the filter ring...
