p.2 #1 · p.2 #1 · $2000 glass budget for M8 - help!


I'm in a similar boat as you. My M8 arrives tomorrow and I already have a Voigtlander 15/4.5, 40/1.4 and Zeiss 25/2.8 that I use with my Sony NEX. I'm not 100% sure how it's all going to work with the frame lines of the rangefinder but I may end up ditching them for some 6bit coded Leica glass.

Start with the 28, and once you use it a bit, see what your needs become...


That's the plan. I may feel the need for wide before portrait. Time will tell.

Not really 2000 dollar budget any more, but great choice! And trust me, it will be a habit for sure


Thanks!

I wish I saw the brilliant Leica rendering in the summarit lens, but I just haven't seen it yet - a shame because they are much more reasonably priced. Is it just me, or do these lenses not have the same 'character' as some of the faster lenses?
