I Predict A Disappointed Buyer

[Stu W]

I think this lens is going to produce some very out of focus shots.

I'm not seeing anthing obviously wrong to me. Why do you believe that?

Thanks,

Ah, I didn't realize it was an "eyes" lens. Hopefully the buyer is someone like you with a spare set.

I think this lens is going to produce some very out of focus shots.

And then chances are they will conclude that Summarons are crap.

Wow...sharp eyed members. Looking at mine it looks like you're right....but not having a SM Summaron to compare it to, I have to say I never would have caught it. What gave it away?

 

[Rafael]

Very funny (except for the buyer of course).

 

[Stu W]

The minimum focus distance. Stu

 

[dadsm3]

But they did make LTM Summaron's as well, I was wondering what they looked like and how you were sure it wasn't one of those.....

 

[dadsm3]

Ahhh...nevermind.

 

[erikhaugsby]

can somebody say "scale focus?" 😀😀😀

 

[dadsm3]

Roland, saw your attempt to set him straight....not very willing to admit his mistake, is he?

maybe he has a one of a kind modded one, or presumes scale focus??

 

[ampguy]

Ok,

Ok,

Thanks Roland and all for this heads up.

That wasn't me dadsm3. Thanks for the link, Ted. Lens looks like mine,
i.e. scale focusing only on a LTM body ...
