New Summitar Lens

[jkelly]

I just got back the first roll of Ilford XP2 Super taken with my Leica M3 and newly-acquired Summitar f/2 50mm and Leitz UV filter. I took the entire roll indoors, so its not a broad sample. But, I gotta say, so far I love this lens! I've attached a couple of pics of my son and daughter.

I've used my Summitar on my IIIf and have been quite happy with it. See a sample at

I like the summitar too! Here's two examples I posted at photo.net.

You're making me upset that I lost the one I was bidding on you-know-where

Yeah, it was the Summitar samples on this forum that convinced me I needed to get one. I dumped my Elmar, and I now just use the Summitar and a Summar that I also like. I've seen yours before, OldNick. I love the smooth tones, with just enough sharpness. Great shots, guys.
