Edward, I love the caption 'smokers die young'...the look of horror on the seller's face!

One from a recently acquired M8.2...10mp seems so small again, however it's nice to carry after the bloated M240.

What's great though is that my Hawks DIY-converted Contax G21 f/2.8 Biogon has no colour-smeared edges on the APSH M8 .

Thank you David!

The M8 color at low iso is still one of the best imo.

Any fellow M10 shooters tried the Zeiss 50 Sonnar on their Camera? I had one previously and enjoyed it on film but never got to try it on digital before I sold it. Might be worth reinvestigsting. Nice thing too is that it shares the same filter size as my 35 FLE.

I used it on the M9, M240 and M262. It behaves the same as on film but the focus shift is more obvious on digital due to pixel peeping.

Yeah I would probably look for one that was f/2.8 optimized as that's a more usable range for me. I remember being quite impressed with the rendering on Tri-X when I was using it on my MP. But I've flip-flopped back and forth on so many lenses in the past few years that I want to carefully assess what would actually be of value to me. I'm still hanging tight with trying to make 2018 just about 35mm but I'd not hesitate to add a 50 back into my kit in the future as it's easily one of my most used focal lengths. I'm definitely fond of 28mm as well but I think 21/35/50 is actually my ideal Leica kit.

I’ve bought and sold the sonnar twice. It’s a love and hate relationship. I loved the rendering and hated the focus shift. Now that I shoot film I think I will be buying my third copy soon

By the way, both of my copies bought brand new were calibrated at around 2.2 on digital M.

I usually shoot fun stuff wide open. When I had the Sonnar optimised for 1.5 I was perfectly happy with it, though there were times when the "vintage" bokeh bothered me. Later having one optimised at 2.8, I found it impossible to love and considered optimising it but since I had so many 50s at that time I just sold it and haven't gone back to it.

Swing on by and try mine. You could also try out my 7Artisans 50 1.1 at the same time. I prefer the 7A lens...

I've tried so many 50s out that I almost can't remember what I liked or disliked about each one. I never had one really WOW me or anything. I'm thinking that I want to have my eventual trio be 46mm thread lenses which I'm thinking means 21 Super Elmar, my current 35 FLE and for the 50 either the Summilux ASPH or the Summarit ASPH. I had the Summarit and really had no complaints other than I thought it was aesthetically a bit weird looking haha! (Though a fine performer!)

This is the manager of a lychee plantation in Wiang Pa Pao in the north of Thailand. He told me that his lychee trees are being cut down because yields have fallen drastically over the last 20 years, owing to global warming, and being replaced by mango trees. Almost all the other lychee plantations in the area turned, initially to orange growing and then to rubber trees — neither have been successful.
