Subject: [Leica] 35/2 vignettes all right

>>>I recently bought a 35mm summicron (early '80s vintage) that I'm
using on
an M6 (non-TTL). I've fired off about four rolls and some shots
(particularly on color negative shot at dusk) reveal some very
noticeable
vignetting. Does this indicate an element problem?<<<


The one I had vignetted a lot too. It's not as serious with
thicker-emulsion films; if you're using color neg, try a film that isn't
T-grain or the equivalent.
