Leica IIIg, Summicron 50/2, expired Agfa Film, last April

I've not used my LTM one in years - it needs a proper clean and service, to be honest. I think this was from 2012:

A IIIg and collapsible summicron is sort of my default. Stopped down it might as well be a modern lens, and wide open it has nice character while holding up better than say the summitar or summar.

Well, it IS a modernized Summitar formula.

Thanks! Yes it is, it is the Piazza del Popolo.

Yes, but without the barrel vault distortion. It was the favorite lens of Cartier-Bresson. The early ones have a very vulnerable front lens. The later ones don't have that problem, but these are, strangely enough, rather hard to find. Their tonality is completely different from the rigid.

Très chic! I spent a week in Rome in 2005 and had a great time. Cheers, OtL
