70 year old Leitz Hektor 73mm/1.9 on the G1

I actually got rid of my mint Summarex to someone who is enjoying it on his G1 and M8. I really did find it hard to focus on the M8, one reason I kept the 73mm Hektor.

The bottom line is that these old lenses really do have a unique "drawing" characteristic and they also do well with Digital.

Now, back to deciding what I am using for a little "one camera, one lens" competition :)

Rafael,

The black ones were produced in far fewer numbers so they command a higher price. Some people prefer the black finish and will pay a premium (I am usually one of those people, though my Hektor is silver).

Let us know if you get one, nice lens.
