For those who are interested, I started a new thread with a "how to" installation instructions for replacing the focus tab on the 1.4/35 pre-asph v2. I got one made up by shapeways in raw brass and it looks great. I also include links to download my files so you can print your own in whatever you want.

Enjoy!

Fomapan 400 at 1600 has a bit of grain... Back to 250.

Was this wide open? If so, the V2 is even better than I thought! I couldn't get this quality wide open with my V1. It's a fantastic shot, in any case!

Thanks both of you! The combination is pretty good I must admit.

Rob, it would have been either wide open or 1/2 a stop closed (f/1.7). Sharpness is not great wide open, but I find it improves at distance - it struggles most wide open and close. By f/1.7 I find it sharpens up significantly at all distances, so I typically don't open all the way up unless I have to - I'd prefer to underexpose by the 1/2 stop.

Nice One M. !

A couple from my new to me Epson R-D1 and trusty late German 35 Lux Pre Asph...

More from Moreton Island. Rouse Battery, a WW2 set high in the sand dunes.

Afternoon (winter) sun under the house.

Winter isn't really winter here. Still warm but just no storms...

Dang it. Every time I think I'm going to sell the 35 Summilux I process some film and look at the results and fall in love with it again. It's just one of those lenses that has a really special rendering aesthetic, but I feel like I've been struggling with the focal length.

All on the same roll of Tri-X, M-A and 35 Summilux Pre-Asph

Love that last one Abram!

Two of "Weary" Dunlop. Taken on the same day, 1st in the morning sun, and the second as an afternoon storm approaches.
Both Portra 160 @ 125, developed with the Unicolor kit. M4.

Two more from my first C41 developing batch. Taking a while to scan...

Again Portra 160 at 125, M4.

And this one of jmilkins at the Eggleston exhibit in NGV.

I'm starting to enjoy this whole colour photography thing 🙂

Hi all,

Great images as always.

Is there anyone had tried this lens (mine is v2) with the M10? I've read a while ago that the lens bayonet doesn't work properly so it can't focus to infinity. Is that right? Thank you

Cheers

Some of the light baffle needs to be removed to mount on the M8(9?) but I have no idea about the M10 sorry. You'll likely get an answer in the M10 forum with a new thread.
