Johans early Summilux is the rare version of the Summilux I with the different focusing grip. The difference is that on the normal version the higher parts of the grip are smooth and the lower parts knurled. On Johans version it is just the other way around.
The two colors of the "chrome" on this lens are normal. This lens is partially made of anodized aluminium and partially of chromed brass.

Ha,

it better be, I'm flat out of funds and out of work. So anything I'd like to get will mean somethings gotta go and I'm not willing to let anything of the consolidated stuff go!

Apart from the set shown before I own a Leica II with 2 lenses, a Nikon D3100 with 2 lenses, and Rolleiflexes 80/2.8F and 135/4.0 Tele.

Now, to find some work with them that'll put some bread on the table! :)

I always preferred the look of the older XOOIM hood for the summiluxes, you lose a bit of the viewfinder though.

Hi, both correct. it's an "optical table" in our lab, which used to mount laser to measure fluid speed. the lens is 35/2 6 elements. And new acquired m2 w/o selftimer, I've been waiting it for so long.
