Hahaha well you might have to go up to Biship CA to find these specific ones 😋

The lens coatings have been improved with the M mount, and that is why there is a difference in the colours, shadows, sharpness, and flares. But the LTM should produce some nicer B&W images, much like the older single-coated lenses.

Nice comparison! I love my m-mount Color Skopar. Have you shot with the 50mm Nokton f/1.5 II? I picked one up a year ago, and it's a knockout - maybe the only two lenses I will own for my M6 for the foreseeable future. New Voigtlander glass is really impressing me.

I have the SC Skopar for my Contax IIa and Bessa S2C. I think it's single-coated rather than multi-coated. But when shooting with film, I don't see much difference on the images when compared with those from the Leica Summicron.

@BadFlashes

Oh that makes sense why the difference… should have researched that haha I’ll definitely get my hands on some other lenses.

Did you take into account lens coatings? That could explain the contrast in the voightlander. For about $15 you can get a ltm to m adapter. I don’t have deep pockets so most of my m mount lenses are ltms. I’d love to see a comparison between the canon 50mm 1.4 ltm and the Leica 50mm summilux, and for fun, why not the voightlander 75mm f2.5 ltm and leicas 75mm f2 asph.

there seems to be another color skopar 35mm 2.5 lens. I got silver one for LTM, which i adapted on my M6, which seems to be a different shape. It also has a focus "knob" which i really enjoy using. completly different than these two though. Edit: ah should have watched until the end.

I had the 35mm f/2.5 P II in M mount and it was probably my favorite lens when I had an M Mount camera. If you can find it the Color-Skopar 28mm f/3.5 LTM has a reputation for being an incredible lens (I'm not sure if you're a fan of the 28mm focal length.) Also the Color-Skopar 50mm f/2.5 is an excellent lens.

Are you using a lens hood on both lenses when shooting, or are you using one lens with hood and one without? That's a variable you haven't addressed. You clearly show yourself walking around with both cameras, one with hood and one without. You think that may have something to do with the flaring you see in the LTM images??? And if you may choose to use Black and White film in your Bessa with LTM lens, does it really matter if the shadows look cooler compared to the M-mount version?

@BadFlashes

Жыл бұрын

That’s a good point. But in this case I don’t think so especially since I’m not directly pointing the camera at the sun for most of them. Especially if you look at the one down that ally way type street. But definitely valid. My lens hood didn’t come in time or I would have put it in tho
