How many 50mm ltm lenses do you own?

[newspaperguy]

I embarassed myself this weekend, when I discovered I currently have seven - 50 mm lenses in my photo cabinet to fit ltm bodies.

OK, so I've got six bodies, but three have other lenses mounted.

Perhaps they breed?

 

[ruby.monkey]

In LTM I have two - a Canon 50/1.2 and a Jupiter-3 50/1.5.

I wish they would breed - I might get a 50/1.4 Nikkor SC out of it. 🙂

3 : Jupiter 3 and 8 + Summicron V

 

[bmattock]

Just two in LTM. Canon 50mm f/1.4 (black) and Canon 50mm f/1.8 (silver).

4: screw mount elmar, latest summicron in screw mount (limited production), latest collapsible elmar m mount, and summicron-m. The summicron new version in screw mount looks very neat and works very well on the iiif.

 

[capitalK]

I don't own any but I have a J-3 on extended loan from another RFF member.

 

[John Lawrence]

Six in LTM - two Summitars, two Summars, one uncoated Elmar and one Jupiter 8.

 

[venchka]

Nikkor 50/1.4

That's all I have in LTM. The total is more, but in other mounts.

 

[thomasw_]

I have owned at one or another, the following 50mm LTM lenses: 50/3,5 elmar, 50/2 summitar, 50/2 summar, 50/2 collapsible summicron, 50/1,5 summarit. But I own 0 LTM lenses now.

 

[Austerby]

For some reason, I can't resist trying them out: they're relatively cheap and they provide a different look from each other and distinctively different from modern lenses.

I currently have the following LTM 50mm lenses:

Elmar f3.5
Summar (hexagonal diaphragm)
Summitar (hexagonal diaphragm)
Summarit
Summicron (poor condition)

I've not experimented at all with Canons, Nikons or Russian lenses yet: plenty of further kit to play with!

 

[mcgrattan]

I have 3.

Summitar, Jupiter-8 and Industar-61. I'm selling the Industar, though [with the body it's attached to]

 

[sevres_babylone]

Just two. The CV Nokton, and the Canon 1.5.

 

[stuken]

For ltm just the one, Canon 1.8, in general 6 SLR 3 TLR (field of view, not focal length) and 1 LF.

 

[rover]

LTM?

I think only 5 at the moment. I have cut back quite a bit.

Canon (1.4, 1.5 and 1.8)
Nikkor (2.0)
Jupiter 8

I also have a Rigid Summicron and old Summilux in M mount.

I don't really use the Nikon S2 or Contax I have so we won't count those. (I am a confessed collector so this is OK 😉)

 

[brachal]

Industar-10
2, Industart-61ld
Industar-61
Jupiter-8
Jupiter-3
f/2.8 Elmar

In my defense, 4 of the above came attached to a camera.

 

[dexdog]

two 50/1.5 Sonnars, canon 1.4, 1.5 and 1.8, one yashinon 50/1.8, one nikkor 50/1.4

Seven total.

 

[ray*j*gun]

Hmmmm let's see.....a Jupiter 8, Elmar 3.5, 2 Ind 26's, a CV Color Skopar and I suppose my 45mm Minolta Rokkor should be included. So is that 5 1/2 or 6.

[raid]

In LTM only:

Canon:
50/1.2 great
50/1.4 great
50/1.8 great

Leica:
Elmar 5cm/3.5 classic and sharp
Elmar 5cm/2.8 sharp
Summar 5cm/2 great lens with flare
Summitar 5cm/2 hardly used by me
Summarit 5cm/1.5 this is a "creative" lens somehow; dreamy images for special occasions
Summicron 50/2 collapsible

Zeiss Jena LTM:
Sonnar 5cm/2.0 both lenses are great for photography [two lenses; one is put together by Brian and one has been modified very early on]
Sonnar 5cm/1.5 uncoated, pre-war, pristine [put together by Brian] Brian has never encountered before such a clean Sonnar ZJ.

FSU:
50/2 [J8]
50/3.5
50/2.8 [Industrar 61L]
53/1.8 [Helios]

Roeschlein-Kreuznach:
50/2 Luxon "created" and adjusted by Brian

I try to use all lenses above as often as possible. I used to have a J-3 or two in LTM, but one was sold and one was modified into Contax mount. Now I have three J-3 in Contax mount [all adjusted by Brian].

 

[cjm]

One, a Canon 50mm f1.8 LTM (chrome).

 

[ferider]

Four Sonnar variants.
