Pros: Materials, slow qualities, color yield, size

Cons: built-in lampshade a little short, findability, the addiction that creates

Opinion: I chose the Leica and not the zeiss because it found under price, the same to which I would take the planar to understand us, also take a lens F1.4 but have to close it to f2 to have according to many, a very good level of yield on a modern ml like the xt2 so much worth p make a lens that already at f2 was very good. For sharp speech, a separate chapter should be opened. Because if you go and take a vintage optics and demand a sharpness of a signa art maybe there is an initial misjudgment. Also for the human portrait to have a non-foreign sharpness to an open diaphragm as f2 allows a more gradual passage of the plans, solves some imperfections of the skin and leaves that feeling more dreamlike, all the more so on a very beautiful rendering as this leitz. On the xt-2 it becomes a 78mm eq to be precise, through focus peaking there are no problems to focus also because f2 is not so open. In my opinion taken at a price on 300 euros, maybe something less, but in good condition it is a lot of stuff and ties the shoes to many modern goals. Of course entering the leic world then creates addiction in fact now I'm desperate... jokes aside if you find it buy it without problems, if then you have a ml FF then it must be taken absolutely.

Pros: Colors, materials, size, weight, quality.

Cons: Nobody.

Opinion: I have a German model in very good condition I use on Canon EOS 6D. I must say that the first thing that struck me is the care of the packaging and the materials and the precision with which it was built. At first use I found it hard to be a completely manual view. The meter does not work so it does not tell me if the photo is dark or clear, but I'm used to it now. We work on TV (Canon times) so we have a masked M function since the lens can change the aperture of the diaphragm from the ring. Looking at the PC for the first time, the photos were surprised by the COLORS: incredibly realistic, dominant, which I was used to to see, and above all blue to leave without words. Very nice also blur it, does not detach the focus and dissolves the background, this has a progressive blur that tells the depth of field and a nice 3D effect. At f / 2 it is very sharp already, but it still improves af / 2.8. While still af / 2 the portraits are special%2C seems to be a kind of Orton effect that makes the faces already clean and polished, I've never seen such a thing, really beautiful. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND = Two options were made for this purpose: German the first, Canada the second. The German model is more expensive construction, with all the glasses of the double gauss curved; On the contrary, in the Canadian model, some of these have become straightforward to make Opti's production cheaper during the crisis. It seems that the difference between the two (according to Cavina: http://www.marcocavina.com/articoli_fotografici/Leitz_Summicron-R_50mm/00_pag.htm) is that the German model is optimized for short and long distances and less to medium, on the contrary Of the Canadian that is better at distances than average Mafs. I can confirm what Cavina said for the German model, shooting at short distances has an incredible contrast to the media.

Pros: Color, size and weight

Cons: no one, except the obvious, ie that lacks focus

Opinion: I have a model 1976 body "experience" but with excellent lenses. I was surprised by the delicacy of color rendition. A lens that costs little and makes a lot, is to have in the kit. Board of ride inside a bayonet leitax, or at least a ring Novoflex, to taste it on reflex or even better on sony a7-a7r (electronic viewfinder helps in focusing, which becomes perfect).
