p.1 #1 · Q3-28 owner just purchased an m10m... lens advice.


Hi all! Need to get my participation up so I can get involved in the buy/sell/trade community, but also have a new-m-user lens question.

I purchased a 35mm f/2 Ultron V2 as a first lens for the M10M. I think I want to concentrate on 35mm FOV for my Monochrom photography for awhile. As this is a quite modern lens, would a LLL 35 f/2 8-element be a good character-35 to pair with the Ultron? Should I just get the Mandler? Should I just use the Ultron for the next million years until I can buy the Leica APO and Summilux?

I use the Q3 in 35 crop mode quite often, and it's pretty great, but I'm not sure where the rendering would sit with the the previously mentioned lenses. Especially when comparing the two different sensors.

TL;DR, 35mm f/2 Ultron + 35mm f/2 8-element LLL good 35 combo? Yay or nay?

Great choice on the Ultron. It's a lovely little lens.

I don't know much about the LLL lens, but, were I looking for a character lens to go with the Ultron, I think I'd look at the Canon 35/2. It's LTM, so you'll need an adapter, but it's got character to spare.
