Leica Summaron 35mm F3.5 Feet and Meter Measurement!

Postby sompod » Tue Jun 05, 2018 1:42 am

Hi Everyone,

Nice to join this site, I am a new guy from this forum and also the Leica world!

I recently bought the Leica Summaron 35mm F3.5 lens from Japan to pair with my M9, I think it was probably the lens from 1954, based on available info from internet i could find it.

Anyway I just curios that my lens had the distance measurement in "Feet" unit, which I found some of this lens had the measurement in "Meter"

Wondering any different between these two versions in term of quality and also the value?

By the way, I really love the B&W of this lens, its rendering is superb with retro style!

Thanks.

As far as I have seen there is no difference in either value or quality. It was just a variance in the lens for I assume US buyers...welcome to the site!
