David,
Any explanation on why the extender and extension tubes will not work? I can understand the TS adapter due to the extra software commands but the extender and extension tubes should just pass right through. Thoughts?

Thanks for all the photos, very useful. I am intrigued by this bag, even more now…:cool:

Withdrawn- this will be the second lens to be used with my M9 Monochrome.

The first will be the 1934 5cm f1.5 Sonnar in LTM.

Thanks.

I'm not so sure about this one. 😀

Anyone can attend Photokina (about 160,000 people attended last show). It is held in Cologne, Germany every other September (even years).

Interesting comparison Marc. I find this kind of thing much more informative than the more scientific apples to apples tests. I've been doing similar comparisons with the Leica S2 and D800E. I prefer the shot taken with the S2. There are subtle differences between the shots which are attributable to a variety of variables aside from the…[Read more]

My first reaction was that I preferred background rendering of the Hasselblad HC210mm over the Leica S120mm and in general preferred the Hasselblad photo. However, upon closer inspection of the web sized images, I think the difference has more to do with the lighting than the lens…

Hey Pete,
The neoprene cover is a Lenscoat Bodyguard Pro CB. I use as an extra layer of protection from dust, etc. It fits very well and has stretched to fit better over time, even with the Leica handstrap and RRS L-Bracket attached, though I could have done a more tidy job putting it on the camera the day I snapped these photos.

Cool. But the coolest is the neopren cover for the S2. Self-made?

Correction to main compartment image: also holds a D-Lux 5, not Digilux.

Last but not least, the ThinkTank Urban Disguise 35 V2.0 with gear inside tucked into my carryon roller bag. Ready to go!

Two images of ThinkTank Urban Disguise 35 V2.0 with daypack attachments:
1. RU Thirsty bottle holder attached via short Attachment Strap clipped to side of bag. Could also hold a lens. (For storage I keep the strap zipped into the compartment at the bottom of the bottle holder so it is always there when I need it).
2. Backpack Harness…[Read more]

you may wait for a mirrorless camera from Leica later, but it is at this time pure speculation if and when this will be on the market.

There are also some bodies (Ricoh, Sony, Fuji etc) that will give you the flexibility to youse your M-lenses as well as the R-Lenses.

And, as i said, in some situations, especially for…[Read more]

Yes, the Hasselblad sensor is bigger, I think the equivalent of the 210 lens should be something arround 150-170 mm or so for the S2.

can't wait to get my Hasselblad HC-Adapter ……. got the 150 HC allready and I'm looking for the 100 actually. (If someone needs a Hasselblad V adapter, I have one for sale).

I really like the new…[Read more]

Summicron is no longer available. I've decided to keep this one. This one is collectible, but after bleaching- as good as the non-radioactive lens.
