Love that opener and Andre's crosswalk. This seems like a lens made for the M9 like the 35/1.4 pre-ASPH is- lovely color there Kristian.

The 50 Planar ZM is certainly a lovely lens!

I have other 50s, but this one is close to my heart. The rendering is so special.

This thread is really making me appreciate planar lenses and that is the closest I have to this great lens.

It depends on what look you want. Vintage vs. modern ... the Planar is very modern looking.

I have my canon 50mm f1.2 for vintage look. I think I need a modern 50 planar. All other lenses I have are modern though, I wish I had some vintage 35mm too.

Some Planar 50/2 ZM bokeh appreciation

All with Leica M8 and processed in Lightroom 3.2.

Benji77, I had to do the same -- but it was well worth it! :-)

Well the planar is my reference lens for sharpness and contrast. Not a sunny day lens, though, too much contrast!

Planar Bokeh

Shot an entire session with the Zeiss 50mm planar, and loved the look. No flash, just reflector fill.
