Had a chance yesterday to try out a WATE on my M9 (it's a short-term loan).
All-too-easy to fall in love with this lens and viewfinder (a.k.a. the Frankenfinder).
It seems to render quite differently from the 18mm Super-Elmar. Or maybe I was inspired to process the images differently. Either way, I'm really happy with the results.

Really nice. Love that first one especially. You and the WATE seems like a marriage made in heaven!Had a chance yesterday to try out a WATE on my M9 (it's a short-term loan).

Thanks Lloyd. That first one is my favorite, too. My wife wants to take a large print of that photo to the stable and give it to the people there. She recently switched the place where she does her riding, and this was my first opportunity to visit with a camera.
Didn't think I would like the WATE as much, since I already have an 18mm. Though huge, the finder is wonderfully designed. It's great that you can change the distance as well as the focal length on the finder.
I wish the WATE (or finder) could send the selected focal length to the camera. All the photos are tagged as 16mm, no matter what I shot.

I picked up an Apo-Telyt M 135 from Ken Hansen, primarily because I had the "R" version many years ago and found it incomparable. The M is outstanding too - here are the first couple of shots I took with it. Not much dof at such short distances!

Thanks Bill. Here's her mom, Rachel. I'm guessing it's from the female side alright.:thumbup:
