M9 Alive and ....well- Post Your Pics Here!

I came over here to post a recent one from my M9 and saw that the current theme is Sonnar. Cool to see your Sonnar on M9 shots guys...
I don't have a good shot that shows off the Sonnar-y qualities of my Nikkor-H, but will try to shoot one or three soon.


From a day earlier this year:

A company in the UK now offers this as a service.
This particular lens- was like Wax Paper when I got it, had never been opened. It is one of the earliest that can be converted with a J-3 mount. Nickel finish, 1934 manufacture date.

Nokton 50/1.5 M v2 by fiftyonepointsix, on Flickr

I had to get the new Nokton to go with it.
 
Someone is buying up I26 focus mounts and putting Contax mount J-8 and J-8M into them, I have one and worked on another. Mine was spot-on, but a second was sent to me had to be totally rebuilt, I put in new optics.

I picked up several Tabbed I-26's, some subtle differences in the construction- found them quite good after cleaning and adjusting.

But these- with the new Nokton 50/1.5.
