Our friend Wolfgang tested two very detailled new Lens tests:
1) Leica M-Summarit 35mm f/2.5 (Click here to read the test)
He tested the lens comparing it with the Zeiss Distagon 35mm f/2.0. The Leica is not a cheap lens ($1500 on eBay)
2) Voigtländer Super Wide Heliar 15mm f/4.5 (Click here to read the test)
It’s a nice super-cheap wide-angle you cna buy for 250 Euro on eBay (Click here to see current auctions).

2 years ago |That’s really impressive! I have seen it already from my own old Leica R-Lenses that they can’t compete with my Zeiss ZA lenses… But that the difference between an SLR Zeiss lens and a new M-Leica-Lens (which is supposed to be better than any SLR lens due to the shorter rear focal length) is THAT big was new to me….
Thanks Wolfgang for testing!
PS: Would be interesting to see the how the kit zoom 18-55 behaves in comparison to the Summarit…
