Even though it was designed for the M3, it works fine on the M4, the M6, the M7 even with the optics, and presumably with the M2, M5, MP and M-A. That being said, as long as it is an analog Leica M that you want to use, the Summicron DR is fine. So, it is only the Summicron DR that turns its nose up at a digital Leica M like a cranky Leica film camera purist! However, the rear element sits far enough into the body as to mess with the light meter. The 1960s era Leica Super Angulon 21mm f/4 will mount on a digital Leica M. Just don’t collapse it while mounted like you would on an analog Leica M, or you risk damage. But what can you say? Brass is heavy.Īnd then there is a design flaw that precludes mounting a Summicron DR on a Leica digital camera like the M9, M240, and M10-the only Leica M-mount lens I know of that won’t click into place if you try to mount it on the digital Leica M cameras-which in any case I don’t recommend trying for yourself! If you do, definitely do not force the lens, or you will do serious damage camera body, the lens, or both!Įven non-recommended lenses like the collapsible Elmar 50mm f/2.8, 1950s and its later versions, will still mount on a Leica digital M camera. First, the Summicron DR is heavy, and if you check Ken Rockwell’s excellent comparison of Summicron 50s, the DR weighs in at a whopping 339g, the heaviest Summicron 50mm of them all. It sells for substantially less than later Summicron models and even its non-DR sibling which sold contemporaneously. The Summicron DR is often considered the Summicron 50mm to go for when on a budget. As far as I know, no other Leica Summicron 50mm f/2 allows for focal distance from 50cm, although later versions of the lens do allow for shooting from 70cm rather than one meter. When I bought my first Leica M3, one of the first lenses I bought for it was a 1950s era Summicron Dual Range 50mm f/2-’dual range’ because it has attachable optics that allow for shooting subjects up close, from just under 50cm up to 90cm as opposed to the standard minimum range on the lens from one meter. There are some famous Japanese gardens for viewing plum blossoms in Ibaraki Prefecture where I live, like the Mount Tsukuba Bairin and Kairakuen in Mito, the prefectural capital, but I don’t need to travel too far from my front door to see plum blossoms, as there are many plum trees in my own neighborhood, and these make excellent subjects for photography. Plum blossoms in Japan are the first hint of the coming spring, and while not as explosively striking as cherry blossoms and the warming weather than accompanies them, plum blossoms are enough to attract Japanese for plum blossom viewing if not tourists from overseas. The Custom installation option allows you to choose specific installation components.About a month before Japan’s world-famous cherry blossom season in late March, is the lesser-known plum blossom season in late February. The setup program provides an option for a Complete installation, which installs the applications, style files, templates, and optionally licensed extensions.Or exit if you do not agree with the terms.
