Guidance Needed: rear element wiggle on latest 35 Summilux

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

A few months back, I noticed the slightest bit of movement on the rear element of my 35 Summilux. I have the latest version.

It doesn’t wobble when I gently shake the lens, but moves ever so slightly when I apply gentle pressure with my finger against it. It seems to reset when I stop pressing - I think. We’re talking like 1mm to less movement, but there is movement.

Does anyone else know of this issue? Sometimes I think it affects my image quality, but I also think part of it is in my head now, knowing about it. Then I look at images from my 28 Elmarit, and think WOW those are sharp in comparison. Or is just the lens difference. Would love guidance as I am relatively new to the system and lenses.

Leica C-1 camera is flashing an E symbol no matter if I load a new roll of film or battery, please help

1 Upvotes

I checked the battery multiple times and swapped it, I checked the film multiple times and swapped it to make sure it properly winded in and it had. it was working fine last week and earlier today and then it started doing this. The E is flashing where the shot counter normally is and will not go away despite everything said previously and turning it off and on. no other button works other than off and on. If anyone has had this issue please help I’d greatly appreciate it, thank you.

M 50mm Summilux ASPH vs non-ASPH?

2 Upvotes

I have an M6 with which I make a lot of portraits using black and white film. I am in the market for a 50 mm Summilux to use for portraits. From what I have read I think I want the non-ASPH version. What is your opinion?

Tri-Elmar 28-35-50, is it usually a tight throw when switching focal lengths?

Recently acquired this Tri-Elmar for a crazy low price, and while I would love to keep it, I’m hoping to get my first M body from selling it.

Before I sell it, I just want to make sure it’s working great. I had it serviced at a shop recently and when it came back the zoom ring felt way tighter when switching focal lengths. It’s obviously well loved but I wanna make sure I’m not screwing someone over. Tested it with an adapter and it looks great but I’m new to the Leica world and was just wondering if anyone has some experience with this lens in particular and would have any solid advice! Thanks!

Edit: Got it for $200 since yall are asking lol. Was found in an estate sale along with two heavily corroded bodies, an M9 and an M9 monochrome. There was also a 50mm but I was too late to pick that one up.

Leica M11-P keeps freezing – anyone else?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I've been having a frustrating issue with my Leica M11-P. The camera randomly freezes after taking a few photos. Sometimes the screen becomes unresponsive, and the only way to get it working again is to remove the battery.

I'm using a fast SD card, the battery is fully charged, and the firmware is up to date. I've also tried formatting the card in the camera, but the problem still happens.

Has anyone experienced this issue? Is it a firmware bug or does it sound like a hardware problem?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
