Subject: [Leica] M5+28mm M-Hexanon lens

Hello All!

 

Given the recent interest in the Hexar RF I thought it appropriate to
post a few photos from my first roll with the 28mm M-Hexanon lens
mounted on the M5.

Y'all do know that Konica sold it's camera interests to Sony? Sony
apparently knows zilch about the Hexar RF and M-Hexanon lenses. Owners
are on their own as far as repairs are concerned. I didn't feel that
buying a lens was a big risk. The Hexar RF body is another story.
Repairs down the road may be difficult.

 

There is a Hexar RF and 50/2 lens for sale in the Rangefinder Forum
classifieds.

 

Good luck!

 

Wayne
