I love my 50lux ASPH

[PaulN]

I took my middle son out for a hike to watch the sunset yesterday evening and brought my M9 + 50mm ASPH 'lux and took the shots below. I love the smooth earth toned bokeh.

Thanks for encouraging comments all!

Somewhat related, I think that gear acquisition syndrome is kept at bay by finding time to use the gear that you have. I'm really starting to look at the CV 35/1.2 lense, but keep reminding myself that what I really want is not a new lens to compete with the ASPH lux, but time to actually go out and shoot pictures with the lens that is currently on the camera...

This is true..and the 28 summicron compliments the 50 lux very nicely!

You love it, and I'm still waiting for it. Out of stock in Leica Solms!

Nice job... looks like a great lens and a good day.

Plus One.

I now have two film bodies so that I have the 28 Cron on a 0.72 M6 and the 50 Lux ASPH on a 0.85 M6. No lens changing since I got this pair.

Nice shots BTW. You are a lucky dad.
