  • 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 :)

LEICA R on RED: Pictures

Does anybody have a problem with a 35mm Summicron?
I'm trying to figure out if it's the particular copy I have or a general problem with the 35s.
It's super sharp and the corner infinity focus doesn't bother me but it seems to flare way more than the rest of the set.
Not only when it's pointed directly into the light sources but also reflected light, white surfaces, etc....
Appreciate any suggestions.

It maybe a good reason to switch to Summilux set instead, if the problem is inherent with this focal length.

Cheers.

Great looking set Milan!

I haven't seen the 35 Cron flare so easily. Check the optics and if there are excessive scratches or cleaning marks, that very well may be the cause.

thanks Mark, I will check. Though it's similar age as the rest of the set, it has seen a bit more use than the rest.

Your old 90 Cron fits nicely in there, love that lens!

Been a long time lurker of this thread and admired all the pictures here! This thread is what got me to invest in my Leica R set, here's some stuff from the 28mm f/2.8 :D

I'll be shooting a short here in a month and these were some prelim location scout grabs that I took!
 
Nice Stuff Ryan,

Welcome to the thread and thanks for sharing!

19mm V2
 
Great shots Lakis and Ryan! Just completed building my set (28mm f2.8, 35 f2, 50 f2, 90 f2, 135 f2.8). Or maybe it should be "completed" because Mark and many others have proven that one can never have too many of these lenses.
 
Very nice Ryan, thanks for sharing those – keep em coming!

Great picts Lakis, I especially like the squirrel capture on the legendary 70-180 apo.

And congrats on 'completing' your set Raafi... welcome to the Leica R rabbit hole :wink:
