Robert: That's a nice Leica/newspaper glow! This lens renders with a pleasing "softness" (old-school). Beautiful image. :thumbup:Leica glow? or newsprint?

Love the photographs Matt! Beautiful Detail, Color and Circular Bokeh!
The CV 40/1.4 delivers a bang for the buck . . . . .
Congrats on the new lens.
Dan: Thanks! I, also sold my M8's when the M9 came out. I got this M8.2, a few months ago. Silver body at a good used price. BTW: What do you set your M9 to when you use the CV 40mm? Mine's set to the first "manual" Leica 50mm f/1.Matt, nice detail of the poppies in the circle! It does appear that you are enjoying the 40/1.4.
. . . . . I sold my M8.2 to help finance the M9, I wish I could have kept it, I loved it, it had a nice feel in my hands . . . . . after picking up a couple of more lens to go with the M9 it will be awhile before I have a second body . . . . .
Picked up a used 35 Lux a couple of weeks ago and have little time to get out and shoot so a few random shots.

Robert, I should read the comments, after seeing the many pictures of your daughters I thought it was your son.Dan, it is indeed the goggle-lens , very goofy looking, but its optically awesome when I can get it focused!
( its my nephew too, I only have 2 girls, when they hit their teens Im moving out!)
I'm pretty impressed with the shots you're posting the with the CV 40/1.4 Matt. This one of the poppies, and the foliage shots from your yard, add to my interest.One from the traffic circle. Planting's a bit out of control.
Cheers, Matt.

This is really a sweet shot, Robert. Love the glow, but the moment is very Norman Rockwellesque.Leica glow? or newsprint?

Not to mention, NO NOREASTERS!!Robert, if you spent a winter or two in Seattle or Vancouver you would see and feel the difference. We keep the snow in the mountains where it belongs and have mild weather down in the city.
In Seattle only a few days a year does the temperature get below freezing and the rain is always good for the fish and the flowers!
Never say Never!
Great moment captured, Joe. Really nice!The rain finally stopped (at least for a few hours in NYC on Sat)

Matt, you've gone all "CV" on us...great images, using the 40 nokton to it's strengths and defining the bokeh and clarity of the focussed leaves!
Robert, this is awesome. The lightplay, whoah!

. . . . . and thank you for your kind words!
Joe: "Fudgy bokeh"? It is different, compared to various Leicas, isn't it?...
Matt, congrats on the new lens. Some fudgy bokeh Love the colors of the flowers thought....

Ashwin: Well, one "CV", anyway. The 40mm is a unique lens. I've also been looking for the Leica Summicron-C 40mm f/2. Thanks.Matt, you've gone all "CV" on us...great images, using the 40 nokton to it's strengths and defining the bokeh and clarity of the focussed leaves!
