Easy to see why!! Thanks for sharing!:salute:My Two Loves.....
Sweet!
Beautiful piece of glass. It's a great start... hey, when you're in, you're in!!:thumbup:Love the look of these cameras folks!
Ok, ok....I know this is not much, but at least this is a start!
Here is the 50mm Summicron-R I bought from Erik Five a few months ago (it was in PERFECT condition, by the way...thanks Erik!).
I'm ashamed to admit that I haven't 1) used it much or 2) added anything more to my Leica arsenal. I guess at the very least, an R8 or R9 is required...although I was sort of holding out to see what the R10 looks like.

You are a sick individual, buddyI know the feeling.
I know from my experience with my Hasselblad V-system that this is indeed a slippery slope!Sadists
Gary - nice glass. Welcome to the water slide to poverty & obsession. R glass is bad enough. M-glass is a whole other matter.
Buy an adapter for a Canon.....

Erik had a Haoda adapter for Leica-R to Canon EOS which came with the lens, so I have no excuses for not giving it a good try on my Canon 40D....just haven't gotten out there to do it yet, beyond a few casual photos when the lens arrived here.
Something that puzzles me.....I've seen references to 2-CAM, 3-CAM, ROM lenses and I'm not sure what that means.

Here is a explanation of the different kinds. The one you bought from me is a ROM.
