VoightLander NOKTON 40mm f1.4 S.C, Anthracite Leica ME Digital Body

Love this lens, it's my daily driver. I like to shoot wide open for a shallow depth of field with a messy bokeh. Have had it for years, used to use it extensively on my Voigtlander Bessa R3A.

Pretty well built, compact even with the lens shade. It's easy and smooth to focus. The single coated version flares a bit more, and has a slightly lower contrast than the multi coated version from what I've read. Love the contrast and and the painterly feel it gives.

Ill post a sample separately.

Chrome Light Lens Lab 50mm (Cooke) Speed Panchro, Anthracite Leica ME Digital Body

I'm just getting back into photography after losing my dark room to parenthood years back. The ME is my first digital body. I used to have a set of PL-mount Cookes when I worked in motion picture film, always loved them for personal projects and some music video work, so I am excited for this lens.

It's a bit difficult to focus at times, a wee big, but otherwise it's one sweet unit.
