Blackberry grabshot.

Using Tri-X 400 on the M6ttl with 50 cron as well as Yashica T4.
Actually B&W doesn't do justice to Havana, this place is bursting with colors.

Old world charm. Like a scene straight out of a Tintin comic.

You should try a polarizer with that BB lens. ;)

Can I check if yr cron ASPH have any purple fringing issue on yr 5n? Read some reviews tat it might haf as I'm thinking of getting d cron 35 ASPH for my NEX 7. Will pre ASPH lux 35 b better? Tks.
 

Didn't notice any.... i can't comment on which one is better... the only reason I bought cron mainly for the MFD and also the fact that I'm not really into that classic leica glow

Thanks for your feedback. I would have gotten the ASPH Lux 35 if budget is not restriction. LOL. Just got a winning bid for a cron 35 asph black in ebay. Hope it's a good copy as the review of this seller is stellar noting his description of the lens is always honest and open. For less than 3k SGD for a 1999 ASPH Cron 35, guess it's quite a good buy... Cheers.
 

MP with 35lux.fle loaded with tri-x 400

Enjoy... A cron or lux next? 50mm lux has one of the best bokeh in the world, do check it out...

Haha. I can't afford a Lux. For now only cron collapsible :3

Riotbmx,

this is the Kiev 4AM ? nice camera.
kept scratching my glasses, but nevertheless
one of the nicest RF from the Former Soviet Union.

the J8M and Helios 103 are killer lenses.

Does it gather flare frequently? Summar is pretty rare, especially a good copy...

Yup, or at least I think so. Someone who saw my photos on the blog passed it to me. Heard this is a pretty nice lens, the ergonomics for this camera is pretty bad. Gotta hold it in a special way to not block the rangefinder window, and there's this irritating infinity lock. But these FSU cameras are so beautiful

Btw have you considered doing lasik?
 

riotbmx: at my age...won't help.... :)

thoth: yeah... summar flares but i haven't decided if i like it in color or b&w.
what do you think ?
