Great video!! It's hard to beat the 50mm summilux black chrome. My 50 Noctilux barely sees any use because I can't justify the size and weight over the lux. As far as lens flare goes, what kind of filter do you use on the lux? Im asking because I shoot into the sun a lot and rarely get flare.
We are on the same page here, the noctilux is bulkier for sure but the image quality didn't quite justify it for me. I have a basic uv filter lens - what version do you have? Mine is farily older, from the 60's, it has lots of weird quirks - partly why I love it so!
Very interesting. Are you able to focus those wide open lenses through the rangefinder? I have a M240 but can't do it for the life of me. Have to use the screen. Old eyes i guess.
What advice do you have for photographers dreaming of getting their first digital “m” camera. What do you think the entry point would be in terms of what you would consider usable for professional wedding imagery in 2024. Used m240 bodies seem to be around $3000 these days…. Even m8 is up there still…. Really appreciate your content. Your aesthetic and overall approach really resonates with me. I have found myself moving backwards technologically to find a photographic tool that helps me create images with more emotional impact and one that i connect with. Up to now I’ve only bonded with my Canon 5d classic but I find it to be too slow and the shutter (while badass) is embarrassingly loud for wedding work 😂
😁 Lens creators spend a century to get rid of all artefects. Now that they're gone... we want them back. Maybe because it gives us that nostalgic feeling ☺️
Great feedback Terri. I also own the Summilux 50 f1.4 II. And been tempted to get the Noctilux 50 f1.2. I ended up going with the Voigtlander 75mm f1.5 and I’m in love with that lens. I figured getting more reach was appropriate since I already have two 50’s already. Check out the 75 f1.5. You may love it. The bokeh at f1.5 is super smooth. Lens is sharp with character. I find it easy to focus with wide open. I have a review coming up soon. Keep up the good work.
I have the voigtlander 75mm 1.5 too - I use it a lot on the mp and just love it. it's such an unfussy lens. creates come beautiful flares - I'm so glad we share this one!
Teri, Greetings and salutations! I recently revisited this lens and discovered that I have an actual love for it. I’ve fallen into the category of character over clinical. There is a uniqueness and artsy rendering created by this lens that I simply enjoy. Continued happiness and success to you and yours. Doc Chaps
Hi Doc! I am so glad you enjoy it - it really was fun to try out. It's interesting how artists pick and chose gear. It is a funny thing. Hope you've been so well and shooting lots!
Nice real-world review Teri. It’d be fun to get your impression of the Leica Noctilux-M 50 mm f/0.95. From what I’ve heard, the M11’s Visoflex EVF helps nail focus more often with that lens (not surprising, given the narrow DOF). At ~ 700 g, the 50/0.95 is no featherweight! I’ve been playing with the Leica Noctilux-M 75 mm f/1.25 on an SL2. Even at 1,000 grams, it balances pretty well on that body and isolates subjects quite well. I’ll soon try the 75/1.25 on my M11. The Summilux-M 50 sounds like a winner. I’m getting a Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 50 mm f/2 and then will order the Summilux-M 50 later this year.
Thanks so much for taking the time to check this out and for these comment. Yeah, I’m really interested in trying the noctilux .95, even with the extra weight I have a feeling the images will be unlike anything else. Now I’m interested in the 75mm noctilux after your experience … nothing makes me happier than my summilux 50mm right now though :) you’ll have to let me know how you like it
For anyone that is able afford the Leica, i don’t doubt it is fantastic. But for anyone on a budget, the Voigtlander 50mm f1.2 that i have is probably almost as good in most respects for a fraction of the Leica. it has some of the most pleasing bokeh transition and smoothness at f1.2 that I’ve ever seen out of a non-Leica lens. and the build quality is very good. I never tried the slower Voigtlander 50mm F2 APO, so I can’t comment on that compared to the Leica Summicron. But I would also consider Voigtlander f2 APO if all I wanted/needed was an f2 lens on a budget. Note that Voigtlander has discontinued the f1.2 as they continue come out with yet other 50mm variants. so if you want one, get it now if you want new. no guarantees but it is possible the price might increase over time if they get harder find used in. a year or two. i thoroughly enjoyed this video..
Hi James! Thanks so much for taking the time to check this out and for this scoop on voigtlander. I actually have the 70mm and enjoy it for nice detail shots. The 50mm summilux was certainly an investment but it’s been so great for me I haven’t considered another option there. This is great to know though , especially to have a backup or something. Thanks so much!
It's a reissue of a lens from 1966. Made for collectors and people chasing a vintage look, just like the 35mm Summilux steel rim, 90mm Thanbar and 28mm Summaron. I shoot the 50mm ASPH too and love it to death, I can understand why certain photographers may prefer the idea of something a little less sharp/with more character though.
Thanks so much for filling me in Theo! That totally makes sense as a collectors piece. It is a slick lens and such a terrific work of art all in itself!
Great insight. Is there any difference between your Summilux and the one with the slide out hood and a bigger 46mm front element? I was just wondering if the extra character comes with your version?
Nice images. What I love the 1.2 for is it’s colors and contrast. Colors are deep and beautiful with this lens and contrast is just about perfect giving you still lots of shadow information.
I owned an f1 Noct for a couple of years but sold it. I never found much use for the lens on my digital Ms. That being said, I did find it useful in low light on my M6 since I typically shot ISO 400 BW or ISO 50 Velvia. Yes, it can provide some stunning isolation when wide open and if subject isolation is a prime factor in your style of work, it might be worth considering. If you buy one, don't forget to purchase a 10 stop ND filter as well!!
Great advice here and appreciate your insight so much. I think I’d really have to try the f.95 before fully committing to it, definitely think it could be useful since I love to play wide open with the aperture. Thanks tor taking the time to watch!
Teri, here again, I agree with you 100%. BUT I don’t know your favorite focal length for portraits, but if you enjoy the Noctilux the 75 1.25 is insane! My humble opinion of course. Be Blessed, Doc Chaps
Seems like a nice setup but I would also carry another camera with a wide and telephoto for a wedding or event. Using a range of focal lengths will create a more visually diverse set of images and make it easier to get the best compositions possible as the situation evolves. Shooting just a 50mm is like painting a canvas with one size brush. It is possible but can be limiting.
disagree... one lens makes a "point of view" wedding album that is timeless, multi-lens setups, even if the viewer does not notice it at first, are jarring compared to a single lens album.
I use about 3-4 lens each wedding, a range of focal lengths depending on each part of the day. Did a full video of what I carry in my bags! Thanks so much for your input here! I would feel limited with just one lens 💯
Looks like the true value of the Noctilux is on low-light/ overcast/ diffused light! Even in your photos, the low light shots have a distinctive look to them while the bright daylight shots look like they could be on any other lens. So maybe this could be your "screw it" lens, where you use it the right conditions and get the most unique look that you wouldn't get otherwise? Just a random thought - Cheers!
You are totally right on this! It’s the right lens for those very ‘basic’ ‘clean’ images. I could understand photographers who would want that. I personally wouldn’t be sad if I never used it again 😅😂 thanks for checking it out!
Wow, I've been watching your video trying to think what to say, what to write without sounding weird. I loved your video, the imperfections of the sound, the clouds passing by and changing the way your face was lit, the whole frame composition (what did you use here a 50mm almost all the way opened, or an 85mm?), the way you cut it... anyway, lol. Looking forward to seeing more of your content. I'm just a non weird guys who loves filming and editing. Cheers from Italy
This is so cool of you to take the time to watch and comment! I really appreciate it! Everyone has their own style and I just play around with what works for me and isn’t toooo terribly time consuming. The sound is so embarrassing on this video but thank you so much Ruben!!
Liked! Thanks for this detailed look at this newest Noctilux, and comparing it to the Summilux. Like you, I believe that I will remain a Summilux shooter. It would be nice to add the Noctilux, because one can never have too many good Fifties, but, well, the Noctilux 1.2 “re-issue” is probably not $8K US worth of nice.
I haven’t yet! Plan on using it this spring for weddings! I did just get the Leica sf 40 and will do a review about that once I get a few under my belt :)
@@teribphotography Your statement about ‘shots that won’t come round again’ describes weddings and why they terrorize me. You’re brave, shooting with a Noctolux.
Maybe these cool rainbow flare comes from the filter in front of the lens? - I guess for the Noctilux with wider diameter, you've got no filter? - Just try a sheet of cling wrap fresh keeping foil in front of the lens, maybe put a very small amount of vaseline / butter on it!
The rainbow flares are there, filter or not! Noctilux I didn’t have a filter and for nothing. I have heard of this cling wrap and vasoline, haven’t tried it …yet :) thanks for the tip!
At $7900 just for the Noctilux, I'd much rather shoot a wedding with a Sony A7RV ($3900) and the incredible Sony 50/1.2 GM ($2000) and still have $2000 left over for something like the Sigma 85/1.4 DGDN ($1200). The AF and the high frame rate will guaranty a lot more keepers. No need to sell me on the mystique of Leica. I gave that up years ago with my M6 and M3.
I definitely couldn’t understand this noctilux, especially at the price point. Sad to hear you gave up on the ms, especially with the m6! They are pricey but I am able to justify them with the kind of artistry they enable me to produce. Wishing you good things, thanks for watching!

Thanks for checking this out Elderin! Everything was rich and beautiful, for sure. I see how many shooters would love it for this!
