LEICA R on RED: Pictures

[Mark M]

Lewis, what a great vintage look in your latest MV! Looks like you had a lot of fun shooting it too.

 

[Lewis-M Soucy]

Hey Mark thanks man! Yeah we had fun grading but shooting was a huge thrill! One of the best shoots in my whole life!

The 70-210 is Crazy gorgeous lens!

 

[Lewis-M Soucy]

Thanks David! yeah the Angénieux 70-210mm made for Leica is a must have! You can find it dirt cheap on eBay, light and small and it's a gorgeous lens!

I made a side by side comparison years ago with the 70-200mm from Canon:

[Bastian Meier]

Great shots.

I am really looking forward to shooing with my leicas again in March now

 

[David Battistella]

The other important thing to note is that it is a macro lens.
Super lightweight zoom.

Long day yesterday, but pretty happy with the results so far.

 

[Mark M]

Nice images Kristopher!

I especially like the composition of the 2nd one. Which lenses?

 

[Kristopher Colavecchio]

Thanks Mark really appreciate it! The second shot was definitely my 35mm elmarit v1 and first may have been the 19mm v1 or if not it was the 24. Was a long day .

Thanks Lewis for the comparison video, very handy.

Does the Angenieux have a push pull design for the zoom, or is it a traditional rotation design?

It's rotation, I even got it cine-styled by TLS like all my Leicas: you can see both my Angénieux zooms here, last 2 lenses on the right:

Here are a few from that 70-210 from this past weekend. Pretty much out of the camera. really should the character of the lens and how it gets powdery and low contrast with backlight.

Hey y'all! Based entirely on the examples in this thread (well, and a long family history with Leica) I invested in an R lens kit, but didn't have a camera to test them on... until now!

First time out with the Epic-W. Let's just say I'm satisfied with the result.

Looks great D, lovely flare!

 

[Mark M]

Thanks a lot David... you just made me order a replacement for the one I parted with last year (and probably shouldn't have

Damn! This looks really good!
I promised my business partner we won't buy any new lens this year but those shot will make me lie...

 

[David Battistella]

It is very lightweight lens as well and MACRO!

Creamy as heck.

Made in France.
