Nice work Z,Jakko, Brad, and CrazyShot!
Some nice Leica colors on this page. Sorry to break the series with a B&W but it is more appropriate for the subject.

Thank you Wayne.
Your image wouldn't have as much impact if not presented in BW. Great capture!



Both shots @ f/2.8
The red golf bag pictured was left on a curb just few meters away. Couldn't resist to include it in the capture, even if at the expense of being too colour-dominating.

Wayne, "terrific" might be the best term to describe my thoughts about your excellent Yosemite-image above. This shot in color would have been upsetting even more.

Brad, Love those balloon shots.
LZ, another great one. Very cinematic.
Jako, 35cron sure in good hand
Crazyshot, nice color.
Wyan, such a great BW, I want see more.
xenon99, I like the 2nd one.(but you missed focus by a hair back )Did you tried the A7R, I wonder how different they are?

Here are few from last Disney weekend. this is 2nd visit within a year. well, within the time they still love it.

All by 35lux R. WO or F2

Thank you gents for your comments and 'likes'

Wayne, the car indeed appears to be early 1950s (1951?) Packard 250 Convertible.

For those that use the R 28mm f2.8 Elmarit V2 does the lens hood move forward as you focus the lens or how does that work?

Does the hood interfere with adding the adapters for the Cokin P system for usage of rotating filters (like Circular Polarizers), Grad filters, and square or rectangular ND filters? If it does, how can you or how can you visualize using this set-up with the lens? Or would you need to remove the hood?

Thanks.

Rich, this is a setup with Lee filters, but it may apply to Cokin as well. Hope this helps.

Amazing images on this thread. Have gotten through about 100 + pages so far to see what all you folks have been doing with Leica R lenses.

Trying to understand how to focus a 50 f2 Summicron modified for Nikon F mount, on the D800. The focus arrow points in the wrong direction, although when it is in focus the confirmation dot shows up. Have been testing it to see if the dot and actual focus are exactly in sync, I believe they are.

I presume other than practicing and getting used to these quirks (just get used to right is left or vice versa ), there's no other straightforward way?
