You are right indeed. My mistake. M-Mount. Those interested in
shooting in the telephoto range could put a Summicron lens and use the
sweet spot of the glass.
Yes the Kish lenses are interesting, but since the camera has a
PL-Mount one could use cinema 16mm lenses like Zeiss T*. The problem
is tha
I think you meant to say Leica-M Bayonet Mount which has a slightly
larger FFD than the classic C-Mount, i.e (27.80 mm vs 17.53 mm). Using
larger format lenses on your camera is actually not a bad idea. This
technique utilizes the sweet part of the lens - the optical center
with reduced aberrations
Hello Nicholas,
(I prefer to cc frameworks rather than not, hoping that this
discussion is interesting to everybody).
Indeed the best way to use the Leicina seems to be to have two lenses,
the Optivaron zoom and the Cinegon. I have looked for quite a while
for a 6 to 7mm prime lens that could be
Thanks for your comments Peter,
Reversal vs Negative is very subjective indeed. And as I said, the lab
did not get the best from the reversal stock because they specialize
in negative and are very good at that.
When you say the lab hasn't managed to fully remove Rem-Jet are you
sayng it is a proble
Hello Nicolas,
Thanks for sharing your footage. I have never tried the Cinegon lens
because as sharp as I read it is, there's something odd to it for me.
Firstly because it's a 10mm, i.e. a quite narrower field than the 7 to
8 mm that would correspond to the “normal” field of vision for S-8mm.

Hi Marco,
Interesting to see.
The small flecks on the neg looks like left over Rem-Jet. Id say the lab hasn't
managed to fully remove it all in the processing.
From my understanding neg is more complicated to scan due to the orange mask
and the software interpolation of reversing the colours so
