Canon 25/3.5 LTM

Thanks, Raid! This was my first use of the 25mm on the R-D1 -- I'm still learning how to effectively use the extended perspective within a 1.5x cropped FOV.

Raid, just keep the damn lenses! You're just gonna end up buying them back. Eventually.

Jim,
LOL ... how can you read my mind!
I may just kill the ad anyways.

Thanks! I need such support!

The lens is back where it will stay.
I have cancelled the ad for it.

Though I don't own the lens, but I'm sure it's a decision I'm sure you won't regret! 😀

Cheers,

I'm sure you won't regret it. Unless you're faced with the choice of going without something more important due to lack of funds, I don't see the sense of ever selling a good vintage lens.

Reviving an old thread...

Do any of you kind RFF'ers have experience with this lens on a full-frame digital leica body? Is there a problem with magenta or green color issues at the edges of the frame?

THANKS in advance for your input.

I just took this. A stand of young white birch in our backyard. M240 with the LTM Canon 25/3.5. ISO 1600.

Jim, beautiful forest photo! I’m encouraged. May I ask what, if any, 6-bit code you choose for this lens? Thanks

Actually, I forgot to change the setting, so it was set for a 35mm Summicron ASPH.
