Poll: What is the most used focal length on your M8/M8.2?

[Stephen G]

I haven't figured this out yet, only had it 5 weeks.

On a recent trip I took 2/3 of photos with 35mm and 1/3 with 15mm.

However, when I cut it all down to 6 keepers for printing - 2/3 were from the 15mm and 1/3 were from the 35mm. Odd.

Fluke? Maybe.

A Nokton 35/1.4, coded with B+W IR cut filter. Great lens, or at least the version I got. 😎

Summilux pre-asph,35 1.4 Canada
Summicron pre-asph 35/2 V1
Summicron-c 40/2

35mm Summilux ASPH for me... just love the sharpness and bokeh!

 

[maggieo]

35/1.4 Nokton Classic is on my M8 most of the time now.

 

[Chyn]

The 24mm Elmarit has replaced the 50 Summicron as my main lens on the M8.

I voted for 21mm and I use a 2.8 21mm Biogon. Most recently I have been shooting with a 2.8/28mm Boigon. They are not coded so I may be working on getting that done. I only shoot B&W so I don't think it's as much of an issue. At least that's what the Leica salesman told me at the photo store. I would love to have a 24mm Leica lens for this camera.

CV Nokton 35/1.4 with IR cut filter. Also it is the only lens I have a filter for.

I use my M8 together with my WATE. This is an ideal combination. - I am not at all sure that the WATE works so well on a M9.

My 28 Elmarit, almost all of the time.

[jcrutcher]

35mm Nokton 1.2

 

[jarski]

currently, mainly 28 + 15 and 75.

perhaps one day after getting M9, will buy 35/1.2 and glue it to my M8 🙂 (kidding)

 

[jl-lb.ms]

35 Zeiss Biogon. I'd go for the tri-Elmar if I could afford it.

 

[johnnygulliver]

a 21 2.8 ASPH, because of the crop my 35 BP 'chron becomes for like a 50. I miss the speed though, sometimes.

 

[Doug]

The speed is available, Johnny, if you'll pay for it! 😛
FWIW I too have the 21 ASPH, but in honesty I use the slow 21/4.5 Biogon more...

 

[Strangeluv]

Both a Zeiss C-Biogon 35mm and a 50mm Canon 1.2 LTM.
These days, the 35mm pretty much stays on all the time.

 

[HKHoward]

Tri Elmar is my favourite lens on my M8

 

[LightBender]

Summilux-M 35/2.0 ASPH Used 85% of the time and responsible for 98% of the keepers.

 

[Doug]

Summilux-M 35/2.0 ASPH Used 85% of the time and responsible for 98% of the keepers.

Would that be: Summilux-M 35/1.4 ASPH
Or Summicron-M 35/2.0 ASPH

 

[popeye]

1.4 Nokton, because I own it and it works on my M6...
