Last month I visited Paris for the first time since 1991 and photographed the Notre-Dame cathedral from nearly the same spot. (I didn't have the 1991 photo with me for reference.) I used different cameras in 1991 and 2024 but the same lens. 1991: Leica M4-2 with my 1979-vintage 35mm f/2 Summicron and Ilford HP5+ film. 2024: Leica M10, same lens. However, this time I couldn't enter the cathedral because workers are still repairing the extensive 2019 fire damage. In 1991, I went inside and climbed one of the towers for a close view of the gargoyles. (I love gargoyles.)

Summicron 35mm 2 vs Summaron 35mm 2.8 - M3 usage?
oli_sones posted a topic in Leica and Rangefinders
Hi all, I’m keen to add a 35mm lens to my M3 collection as I have been shooting a fair amount of 35mm on other bodies. I’ve been looking at the Summicron 35mm f/2 V1 vs the Summaron f/2.8, both with goggles. The Summicron demands a higher price on most that I’ve seen but I wonder whether the extra £££ is worth the outlay vs the cheaper Summaron. You’re losing .8 of a stop but I wonder what this translates to in real world usage? Anyone have any experiences of these lenses and can offer some insight? Thanks in advance. -
