I do shoot it wide open as often as not http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/daysout/110117_160323b.jpg.html And it makes a credible image. I'd love it if I could put my Summicron 50 0r 40 or Noctilux on my D700 but I cant. So I gotta shoot with what I got. As the lens is relatively slow it really cost a lot less to make in the first place. But is a bit of a legendary phenomenon. And there is a newer version out the G lens. -- Mark R. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/lugalrabs/winterdays/ > From: Lluis Ripoll Querol <lluisripollquerol at gmail.com> > Reply-To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2012 22:20:40 +0100 > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: Re: [Leica] What a cheap lens can do > > Thank you Jim, of course we can no expect of these lenses the > performance we are seen on the modern ones at wide apertures, but is > quite surprising see which is the difference between 30$ and 100 times > more > > cheers > Lluis > > > El 18/01/2012, a las 22:12, Jim Nichols escribi?: > >> These certainly show a mood that reminds me of images I made years >> ago, when my only lens was an Elmar 50/3.5.
