[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have several jupiter 8 lenses (I collect russian leica copies). These lenses are prewar Carl Zeiss Sonnar copies. The lens is sharp but the one I used gave a blueish colortone to the negatives. The lens is no match for a summicron, but not bad for a 50mm lens. Don't forget a second hand summicron will be at least 20 times more expensive. - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lionel Venturini" <lventurini@humanite.presse.fr> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2001 10:37 AM Subject: [Leica] jupiter 8 users? > Is there any LUger here that uses 50mm jupiter in leica mount?
