Show us your pics from your old, beloved Leitz Elmars. I'll start with one from an "0" serial number nickel-plated 50mm Elmar, circa. 1930.

Same lens, Kodak Ektar 100, Leica III

My pre-war Elmar is currently married to my Red Curtain IIIc, never used it so far.
 
Leica Standard with Elmar 3.5 [age unknown to me?] with Ilford XP2.
I guessed the distances and the exposure.

Oh boy.

I'll be receiving a 1939 uncoated wartime Elmar 90/4.0, I think it will take some two weeks to get here. Think I'm gonna get me some nice pictures to stick into this thread :) Thinking Kodak Tmax400 @ 1600 in Rodinal late-night shots here... :)
 
John,

Is that first shot a film set?

Raid,

Love the water shot - you should print that up really high key at about 36 by 24 (inches) and put it on the wall!

I'll see if I can find time to contribute tonight, I ran a test roll of the 1934 uncoated Elmar on my III last week (had to clean the rear element), and the results are very pleasing.
