Ricoh GXR: My M-Mount Lenses

Archive

In the following, I provide an overview of my lenses for the M-mount expansion unit and present photos of the lenses alone and at the camera to provide a visual impression of them.

Note: This page reflects the status until about autumn 2016. Since my wide-angle lenses showed strong color shading when used at the oLeica M (Typ 240), I parted from three lenses presented here at the end of 2016. And because I do not use the M-mount expansion unit and the GXR any more, I do not adapt this and the corresponding detail pages to the current state.

Overview of (for Me) Important Technical Data of My Lenses

Overview Photo (State: Until Autumn 2016)

Photo: All nine M-mount lenses (including two M39 lenses with M-mount adapter; status: up to autumn 2016)
