I had to do some research to figure out what an "Elcan" lens was, as this is not one of Leitz's normal descriptors.
How does the lens stand up when compared high-end modern lenses?
Just curious.

Elcan turned out some pretty crazy items, many for industrial or military applications. Perhaps the craziest was the 90/1 in M mount! Not Visoflex as you might expect. No RF focussing or helicals for this beast, the distance was determined by other means, and the right length of tubing was screwed behind the optical head.

Awesome images with your Nikon Z6! They make me want to sell my Fuji X-T3 kit and upgrade to FF. Thanks for the inspiration!

It is simply a very old Leica lens around 1965 by Walter Mandler with the old famous Leica glow and is a collector's item.
The name Elcan is an amalgam of Ernst Leitz Canada = E L Can.
The Leica R Elcan 75/2 could have been the precursor of the Leica R Sunnicron 90/2.
The Leica R Elcan 180/3.4 was the precursor of the Leica R Apo Telyt 180/3.4 produced for the US Navy .
Selected Leica R lenses have the unique Leica rendering which many photographers enjoy, myself included.

Hi jrscls,
Wow! That's awesome! I'd love to chat about your Nikon Z7 experience, as I am SO wanting to sell my Fuji X-T3 kit (5 lenses and accessories, including a Billingham f/1.4 Black FiberNyte Shoulder Bag, extra batteries and vertical grip.) to get the improved sharpness and detail when printing large! If interested in seeing my work, and talking camera gear, please feel free to check my site at www.totalqualityphoto.com, and contact me at [email protected]. I'm curious to know if you sold your Fuji kit as a unit or separately, on this forum. Thank you, and Best Regards, Steve

I spent the better part of the weekend searching for black bears, mommas, and cubs.
My wife and I found a quiet campground and managed to get a bit of success. I used a variety of bodies and lenses, including the Z6.
This is one of my favorite bear in tree shots from my days in the field.
cheers,
bruce
