  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

GL Optics Sigma 18-35 Rehoused - Group Buy

Is there an option to get a subset? For example 35/50/85, or is it the full set only?

You can get a subset, but at the regular price (which is roughly 25% more expensive).

The group buy discount applies only when purchasing a full set.
 
Which 28mm is used? Is it safe to assume its the older version?

If there is any possibility of supplying my own lenses, this would be amazing...obviously not grouo buy material, but i love Nan's work and would love my Leicas to be fully rehoused (including the 28mm E55 and 50mm E60).

Sending your own Leica lens for rehouse is $2500/lens.

Man . . . your really have to trust the company that is rehousing that your personal glass doesn't get switched up with others
 
Is there any chance we could get a rehoused Leica R set with EF mounts instead of PL? Would love this!

All lenses will have a GL optics interchangeable mount, so that you can have PL / Canon EF and Nikon F mounts.

I think the prime set talk deserves its own thread, no?

I will make a new thread as soon as all the details for the group buy are fixed. Please give us a few more days :)

For those who want to rehouse their own lenses: it's difficult to import goods to China by post, so you can send your lenses either to Avi or me and Nan from GL optics will pick them up and transport them himself to China.

Anybody come up with a MōVi-friendly filter mount? I think I'm gonna need to add a ProMist to get this to match my Leicas.

Lee filters has a 100mm slip over filter holder. I bought a 95mm to 100mm clamp on adapter for the 18-35. Works great.
 
I've witnessed Bob's solution, and it's pretty prime (pun intended)... Arguably the lightest/tightest-fitting way to get 4x4/4x5.65 filters on the glass.
 
I have searched far and wide and Bob's solution is THE best. I've rocked it on the past few jobs. Awesome.
Has anyone found the pricing per lens on a GL Optics rehousing for Leica Rs if you supply your own glass?
