Ron, thanks for the info on the 28 Cron. I have the CV 28/2....I swear I tried this lens a few years back and didn't like it. This copy though seems superb, in no way soft at all. VERY sharp starting wide open. I took several comparison photos between the Voigt and the Cron in all different instances, the bokeh and sharpness were much better on the Voigt across the image. The color was better on the Cron, but I can adjust that easily to my liking after the fact. I wonder if for the same reasons the Cron looks

Thank you very much Ryan.

Beautiful colors in your shots with 28 VM. Very nice rendering.

Haha, Combine them Joakim

I really enjoy all those film shots From Mitch, Retro, Edward, Gary. Leica must did something wrong, I thought this thread will flood with M10 shots by now.

Joe - great to see you back, I read that you had to send in your M10, did you get a replacement?


Great to see you back here too

Yes, Leica replaced it. It took a few weeks - had to wait for next available shipment from Germany.

Demand still exceeds supply, still have shortage of sensors :

At some point, almost everyone who tries the M10 will agree that it is the best digital M so far

Z, something wrong? Agree Joe, a years waiting list in many places. How many companies can have the first year, year and a half of every new model sold before they are even made?

It's the finest 135 or crop digital camera I have ever shot with.

One other little piece of advice to anyone that buys the M 10. I would also recommend getting the Leica leather half case also. It is really nice. Fits the camera snugly and feels great in your hand. Wonderful leather to.

You have gone down the road with M8, M9 and M240, there is very likely no path back

You might have lucked out on a stellar copy of the CV 28/2 (an outlier?), better not sell it, keep as reference

Isn't it your bedtime Joe? I did take a few shots with an M10 a few months back and it felt so good in my hands. Perfect size and I really liked the ISO dial. Unfortunately I wasn't allowed to use my SD card and bring some images home. Sounds like you all are liking it so much that it may be worth a try down the road. It could just be a matter of time but for now I am really enjoying my M4.

For sure, with my brief time with it. I'll be more tempted once the 'demo' models start surfacing.

Yeah, I'm very surprised by that. The CV28/2 I tried was definitely not that impressive. Low contrast and a bit soft wide open. Also focus shift was noticeable at nearer distances as it was stopped down. That said, when I bought my 28 Cron, I initially tried the store's demo model and wasn't all that impressed by it. When I tried the one I eventually bought, it seemed noticeable better. So there's possibly some copy variation on both sides. Maybe Cosina have picked up their game with their older lenses, too? Better assembly consistency? Minor tweaks with noticeable performance improvements? I'm very happy with their latest 35/1.7. That said, you guys with your 35 Lux pre-ASPH photos are killing me. A lens I would still like to get some day...

Maybe by the time more M10 stock starts to surface I'll have enough money saved up to buy one I don't mind the shortage! (I also definitely do not need one, but I've got my eye on it for the future.)

Maybe, but I am pretty sure they lose lots of money because of this. From introduction to real product can be bought is about a year. That is very long time in digital age. If you can get it right after announced that is will be good. This is 2nd time I give up M purchase to Nikon. I don't know others. But impulse buy is consumer behavior that Leica should take advantage for. I am sure lots of D850 buyers will sell it in a year.

I like it after demo. Super feel in hand.

Hi, Gary, Do you still have M240? Or just film body.

I'm like Gary. My M7 is even thinner and lighter than the M10, and it changes sensors between shots
