Rollei P&S vs Leica M7 + 28mm Asph 2.8

[Huss]

Comparing the zoom lens @28mm on a Rollei QZ35W vs a Leica M7 w/ 28mm Asph 2.8

All pics taken at f2.8 at the same time. Late in the afternoon so the light was not strong.
F2.8 would show the lens' at their 'worst' and thus the easiest way to judge which one is better.

Incorrect response.
There is no such thing with film cameras.

😀

(would Sir like to try again with 'grain peepage'?)

That lone large palm left of center appears sharper with the M7.

Was the focus on infinity?

 

[CK Dexter Haven]

The Leica is 3.4% better.
Pretty nice performance from the Rollei zoom.

Was the focus on infinity?

Point of focus was where the center crop was taken.

M7 and 28/2.8 ASPH heading to the classifieds?

You kidding? The Leica is waaay sharper.
It has to be.

400$ luxury film P&S designed by Porsche doesn't have mediocre lens? How surprising... 🙂

Nahh, I love that combo! I just did this for fun not knowing what to expect.
No issues at all with the Leica's performance. Just cool to see the Rollei right up there.
Full disclosure - this Rollei was $2500 back in 2002... Now you can snag one for under $500 if you find a real auction, not buy it now.
The specs, performance, style and build justify that price tag. It's nicer than the Contax T3 I used to own, which currently is over $1000.

Bump ......
