I use the Summicrons 50mm and 35mm ASPH, both with Tri-X (most of the time). I had a look at Summilux 24mm last week in the Leica. That’s very nice but big lens. For me it’s just way to expensive ;-)

Guido, thank you for your fast answer! Do you have any experience with the new Summilux ASPH. 24mm and 50mm in combination with Kodak Tri X?

Hello Michael, to answer your question is quite easy: If i could only keep one of my cameras it would be the M6. Even the MP is not better as it does the same but costs 3 times as much as the M6. Get a used M6 and you are set. Hope this helps, Guido

After you have tested all those cameras, I would like to know which one you would choose for steet photograhy (black and white) if you could only use one of them?
