Hi!
I have used the collapsible alongside a brand new Summicron and I only
find one major difference except from the slightly softer rendition -
the collapsible produces a warmer tone in the pictures! It's only obvious
when you shot with both lenses on the same roll of film - but then it's
very evident. It's almost the same effect I experienced with an old
Summicron 90. I don't know the reason, maybe due to the old coating or
because of the glass used. Can someone out there offer a good explanation?

Amne: [Leica] Info on 50 F/2.0 collapsible
- -Hi!
I have been given to 'evaluate' for a friend an older IIIg screw mount
with a collapsible 50/f2.0 Leitz Sumicron lens (I assume it was the last
before the rigid was made)---- I don't know much (anything really!) about
the Leica screw mount lenses, however. Does anyone know about this lens, and
where I can find some information on it? It's in great shape with an
original hood and all - almost perfect! I'm going to try it on my M6 with
an adapter just to see what it can do!
Thanks very much!
