    The pictures of the girl sat down were a brilliant advert for the lens. I have an m262 and love only using the rangefinder so i am confident i could nail focus often enough but worry about calibrating the lens without a live view. My small collection of lenses includes the voigtlander 40mm f1.4 which is easy to focus wide open so why does the TT lens need calibrating? Good video though.

  • @stu9000

    Nice looking lens with very little CA considering. You can see that when the focus is a little further away the bokeh gets quite busy.

    Nice! So actually I would say a big ass lens like this would be better suited on an M2 or any of the other rangefinders that 50mm would have punched in frame lines. That way you have less viewfinder blockage. But still perhaps the rangefinder patch would be disturbed. So ya I think this lens is best for digital Leicas' with live view/evf anyways. I think I would rather save for a voigtlander 50 f1.2 but this is a cool option for those that need extreme low light capability.

  • @gottanikoncamera
    @gottanikoncamera3 жыл бұрын

    Good review. I was surprised to see it was decently sharp wide open. Each Leica model has a different RF Baselength, the distance between the VF and the RF window. The greater the baselength, the more accurately it will focus. The CL/CLEs have a very short baselength and that’s why the 90mm sold for them are only f/4. The M3 has the greatest baselength followed by the M6 TTL 0.85, so if you want to shoot these 0.95s, use one of them. :-)

    Ah good to know! Does this have something to do with viewfinders optimized for 2m? Like some leica m finders are optimized for that distance for example. And the CLE must be shorter because it is so wide.

    Hmmm, not sure why they are optimized at different distances. That could just be the preference of the designer but I don’t know.

    Pretty sure the gold mount is just brass, which all lenses have, but it's usually chromed or nickel plated, which is better (to avoid tarnishing). It's a cost cutting thing, brass is a soft, cheap metal. Why would you focus, with such a thin depth of field, remove the lens, add it to another body and shoot? lol

    Debating trading in my xpro3 for the SL and a number of non Leica lenses ... this lens continues to convince me that I can manage... I wish I could afford the SL2 and I wouldn't hesitate at all to make the jump if I could... anyhow, I hope you also review some of the native primes for the SL too. I feel like they're too large to carry around... but I'd be interested in seeing how you might use one on the street... Thanks for the quality content!

    If you have a good EVF and with the help of focus peaking and viewfinder magnification you can get properly focused images at 0.95. It's just not that easy but not impossible. I wouldn't buy a lens like that if I plan to stop it down.
