The Zeiss won't give any Exif's it is not coded and not in the in Cam database. The Lux should give Exifs if coded, otherwise you have to manual set the cam to the lens.
And yes! The MM is addictive....
But the estimated aperture should show nonetheless.

Outstanding colors and clarity, ocean. The Zeiss seems to have a completely different rendering though. More subdued perhaps?
Ed, the Zeiss 250/5,6 SA is not multicoated like other Zeiss lenses with T* coating. The color is muted compared with the Leica S lenses. The images that I took this morning are all handhold. I should have taken a tripod with me for the 250 SA. Here are few more from this morning.

Question: other than the obvious, is there any difference in the output between the M8 and the M9? I am absolutely loving the M8 files, but with the rangefinder framing inaccuracies I find myself often left with a 6mp or so file to work with, which can be limiting when doing larger prints. Does the M9 have the same "magic" output as the M8 considering it appears to basically have a full size version of the same sensor? From images it sure looks like it!
The M9 files still have a little IR influence, but not as much as the M8, If you want files with no IR leakage, you still need filters, although no one uses it like this, I guess. The M8 files are a bit more punchy, but otherwise they are very similar.

M mount lenses are not electronically linked to the M bodies. New lenses are optically coded so that the camera recognizes the lens in use, which appears in the exif, and also allows you to select auto image correction in the camera. This said, this is completely unnecessary. I only use Zeiss lenses, and none is coded. I just have to guess which lens I was using if I need to (never).

Yes, the aperture should be there no matter what lens is used. This one is with the Zeiss 50 Planar from Berlin and aperture was (calculated to) 3.4 according to the EXIF data.

Gary - really like how you have captured movement in the taxi image
Edward - love to see your travel images - thanks for sharing
Werner- the tonality of the shop front image on page 1051 taken with the Monochrome is superb

Ocean, thanks for the info about the Zeiss 250mm. Another beautiful set. Love the colors and brilliance.
Joakim, nice candid shot. Great composition.
Gary, amazing taxi shot!!! Love the Vespa shot in the last set above.
Nico, thanks for the comments! I see you're back to my favorite urban abstracts The last set really looks majestic, intimidating.
Charlie, I really envy you, spending your time in the nature with mountains and springs ... etc. Great shots!
Peter, beautiful scenery and colors.
Katie, lovely shots with the biogon. I see you're testing its flare resistance

Anyone with the 4/135 Tele-Elmar? I bought one yesterday (in black) to use with my newly acquired Sony A7s. I should have it by the end of the week or beginning of next week.
What's your opinion on the lens? It isn't really fast but I am still hoping that I could get some nice background blur for some pleasings street portraits.

Welcome to Leica Welt
It was precisely the most epic photo of a tiny dog I'd seen that day
Upon review, there must have been 20 or so accidental exposures... so that may have played a part in it working too hard. Who knows! No big deal in this case anyway
