Collapsible Summicron Image thread??

Did anyone use any other 50's before coming across this lens?

This happens to be my first Summicron 50

Yes. The rigid summicron. Another of my favorites.

DAMN! I hope you still have this lens because you really make it shine. Lens character and your creative vision are a a fantastic match.

Duckies!

M3 with coll. Summicron, Tri-X 400 in DD-X.
My lens is quite scratched and the pictures are slightly murky, it also is quite flare prone.
I like it, it somehow is superior in character to my Summicron-M 2/50.

I've compared my Collapsible Summicron (has slight haze under the front element and cleaning marks front and back - seen under bright light) directly with my Asph Summilux. The Summicron produces less contrast throughout the stops with a slight (I mean very slight) grey haze - also at every stop, but this is largely correctable in PS. However, as far as I can detect, both lenses are comparably sharp from f/2.8 on.

Absolutely incredible lens considering it's age and condition.

I bought this Summicron on eBay as a "parts-only" lens (but the barrel is immaculate) and sent it to DAG for a CLA and had it 6-bit coded. He brought is back to life! Total investment - $450 (one tenth the cost of my Asph Summilux).

The Summicron is permanently mated to my M2.


The top image is the Summilux - both at f/2
