    Great walk around and travel camera. I can take my Leica MP into many places they would make DSLR owners pack up. I tend to favor the wider side of things and went with the Voigtlander 28/f2 as my daily carry. Enjoy the M!

      I no longer own this camera, end it up selling it to fund a Monochrom Typ 246. Basically same camera, feel, just with a B&W sensor. I love the M system. Cheers.

      @@90sPunkRockCovers Does the glow at f1.4 happen only at a certain distance or it's always there at f1.4? Do you know if we can buy the hood from any 3rd party manufacturers, like Haoge, JJC...etc.?

    • @90sPunkRockCovers
      @90sPunkRockCovers  3 роки тому

      I feel like it's always there, specially in the center of the frame. It's not really a bad thing, but more of a "character" thing and gives images a distinct look, I think. As far as the hood, I never really looked at third party hoods since I can be a snob when it comes to off brand stuff, however, I'm pretty sure there must be some out there. Cheers.

    By far my favorite lens on the M system. I also have the Distagon 35mm f1.4 ZM which is the better lens optical wise but the Voigtlander is just more fun to use. It‘s sharp enough, especially in the center, the bokeh is gorgeous when used correctly, stopped down it‘s an amazing street photography lens. The handling is so nice because of it‘s size, weight and focus tab. So, don‘t waste your money on the Summilux pre-asph, that glass is just overpriced. The Voigtlander is just the perfect combination of image value and price.

      I think you are correct in your description. Definitely a fun, compact, well made and great optical quality lens for just about everything. I have since picked up a Leica 35mm Summicron f/2 ASPH II which I'm currently putting through its paces. I want to do a first impressions video of it once I have time to go out and shoot.

    I appreciate these videos very much dude, youre in the same seat as me. Love of guitars & photography. I would stay away from the 7artisans lenses tbh. They do produce some nice results, but the ex I got doesnt activate the framelines correctly and sits between 35mm 50mm lines which is annoying. That said, it could just be my copy as well. Id stick with Voigtländer, its so much better quality wise.
    I will definitely pick this one up to accompany my 50mm 1.5, thanks dude!

      Thanks, Alex. I've never tried the 7artisans stuff. Seem like a bang for your buck but I'm sure they are not perfect, even though some UA-camrs claim they are. I really enjoyed the Voigtlander, solid construction and top notch image quality. Cheers 🥃

      Thank you! Never used the Ultron so I can't comment on that. I no longer own the lens but I did not notice any significant blockage on the viewfinder using the M240. Cheers.

      Sweet, how did you like it? I hope to own a film Leica someday, the thing is I don’t shoot film too often. I have a cheap Pentax K1000 that scratches my itch whenever I feel like shooting film.

      @@90sPunkRockCovers It is great! my version I had the single coat version witch was a little less punchy. I would however only recommend the mc version as the one I have flairs almost all the time without a hood. I actually recently picked up a black paint mp-240 so I will get to try it on that! I hope it arrives this week!

      I use a couple of different presets that I have modified over the years. I shoot in RAW, the Leica jpegs straight out of camera have their own unique look.

    hello! I just bought this lens based on some positive reviews including your excellent one! I haven't taken a single photo yet as I'm a film shooter but the photos will come soon. A little question though... that's the official Voigtlander LH-6 hood you have there is it? Can you tell me please if it's reversible? I've asked the internet and it's not telling me! It seems expensive for a hood (well all branded hoods tend to be a rip-off!) but if it's reversible at least that's something I'm not going to get from a cheap one that screws into the filter threads. If it isn't well bring on the cheap vented one!

      Hey Paul, thanks for watching my video. I no longer own this lens but if I remember correctly the hood was not reversible. Yeah it was a little expensive and I feel like it should have been added with the lens.

      I haven't, really. Ever since I picked up the Leica Summicron f/2.0 I've basically stopped looking at other similar lenses. I will be doing a full review of the lens soon.

    The 7 artisans lens is made with their own optical formula different from any summilux, but this Voigtlander VM35 1.4 is a summilux pre-ASPH knockoff.
