Most objects are 3-dimensional and should, when projected Brilliance,Įdge sharpness and resolution smoothly work together toĬreate images with crisp rendition and almost a 3-dimensionalĮffect. With a diameter of 24mm excellent quality can be seen. Lens already delivers its best performance. When stopping down, and its image quality is more evenlyĭistributed over the whole image area.
Leica r 50mm summicron full#
Version is a bit less contrasty at full aperture, but performs better Stopping down, that resulted in the best sharpness zone shiftingįrom center to a zone outside of the center. The disadvantage of the design was a slight shift of focus when The predecessorįrom 1964 was balanced for high contrast at wide openings. Two or three best standard lenses in the world. "The current Summicron-R is almost identical in optical construction The Summicron on a 5D is a real dream team! With a correctly manufacutred adapter there should be no problem to use any of those lenses on a 5D. It doesn't matter if you use a German or a Canadian model. The later versions (with the installed lens hood) are much better than the older ones. It gets better at controling flare and reflections but also they seem to give some of the contrast of the former incantation.


The newer ones are different in the quality of the coating.

I have 3 of them : One for the original Leicaflex and two others from the 80s and 90s. Originally posted at 1:48PM, 10 January 2010 PST I dont know maybe the older was better built? or maybe the German over the Canadien, or the newer has better coating? any difference you have notted to say one is the best? I have seen great photos in here that were taken with version 1 which is the least expensive, so maybe for use in a digital body there is no real diference? Does anybody know if there is a "better" version, 1cam 2.3.ROM.
