genji wroteI'd already admired the images made with the Dual Range Summicron 50 that Mitch Alland contributed to this thread but the pictures that Manoj posted on the previous page made with the Summicron Rigid 50 (same optical design) pushed me over the edge. I have a number of M and LTM 50s but this extraordinarily versatile lens is well on the way to becoming my favourite.
Thank you, Jonathon. Glad you liked those images. It is a beautiful lens & is my favorite lens as well.
The image of the guy on the bench speaks why this lens is so well rounded. Beautiful image.


Thank you for the kind words, Manoj. I’m now on the lookout for a Summicron DR to use on my M4.

Few more on the M9 + 50 cron rigid from Stockholm.

Michael: Nice image with the Q. I know I'm late to the Q party by a long way, but I'm still impressed by what it can do today considering how it allows me to replace a lot of gear for just pure fun photography.


I was late to the party as well. I guess I had a lot of excuses. Turns out that much of the hype, and some concerns were real. My expectations when jumping in were probably a bit low but hopeful. I have been more than happy with the tool, it’s great benefits and quirks.

Thanks! I have become a great fan of the Leitz 50/1.5 Summitar lens. I bought it for $500 in nearly mint condition and made a great deal. I found out about it before it got hyped up in reviews and YouTube videos online. I love its unique bokeh and glow in certain light situations, its wide open performance, and its sharpness when stopped down a bit. In digital, I have to add more contrast to wide open shots but it's very easy to do. Definitely a keeper lens for me.

Only debit is its a bit weird filter diameter size. I got the lens with original UV light filter for it. Unfortunately this Leitz filter does not have a screw- mount thread on top to allow to use it with third party hood. Therefore I rarely use the filter. I bought a cheap Chinese lens hood with fitting screw mount for it which works perfectly and IMO much better than the now very expensive and super bulky Leitz hood.

Genji, Igors Camera Exchange in Cleveland has several DR Summicrons. Many have been CLAed by DAG. I guess due to compatibility issues with the taller film Ms and the digital Ms, these are fairly easy to find compared to the Type II Rigid. Watch out for haze on these old Summicrons! Often, it will not clean up.

Wow... these look beautiful. Such a fine grain. And you can't miss the glow produced by the lens.

Wow! I would never have thought of Igor’s and they do have quite a few. Thank you so much for the suggestion.

Totally agree. The colour, framing, and quality of light and space are in complete harmony.

My thanks to Desmolicious and genji for your comments, much appreciated.

I knew as soon as I entered the room I had to capture the scene. The subject, light, colour and geometry were sublime, the circumstances less so. Very busy room, subject on mobile for 20 minutes whilst I tapped my foot impatiently. At no point was the subject aware that I was behind her. Eventually the planets aligned, everything came together and I got my shot.
