Again with the M3/ Summaron >> combination, at night, handheld. > >I like this one...great "mood!" Thanks! I was worried that I'd either lose the cook to a burned out highlight or the shadow detail. One of the nice things about the older lenses is they have a longer luminance response, they catch more things in the shadows and highlights, although that means they are low in overall contrast. The Summaron I took this with dates from about 1959 -- it's 44 years old! For equipment fondlers (like me), I have photos of the Summaron mounted on my M3 here: http://photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/Lens-LSM-Wide.html Karen -- Karen Nakamura http://www.photoethnography.com/ClassicCameras/
