![]() ![]() I wish I could check out some physical sets of these but unfortunately there are none here. Well worth putting the effort into making a matched or as close to matched set.Hi Phil, There are look variations between say early 80s and late 90s Leica-R primes as well as copy variation. ![]() I'd dare say if you aren't supplying your own optics, you will have a mixed bag of glass at the end of the day. Zero Optik is the newest company, but in many ways most capable. GL Optics has improved greatly over the years. TLS has been rehousing for a very long time. I'd take a close look at all of their rehousing efforts. They all seem like high quality durable options, but checking here seemed like the obvious thing to do before purchasing a set. ![]() For any owners, is this set well matched? I like their build quality, but i haven't seen many sets for rental, or anyone talking about their Leica Rs rehoused by them, so any info would be great.ĬINESCOPE TLS Im often in the UK so potentially owning this set would be easier for servicing, they look like they have a good build quality, but are also the most expensive rehousers. ZERO OPTIK Has the longest wait time and I would have to supply my own lenses. GL OPTICS says they can source the lenses for me, I wanted to know if anyone has opted for this, and if they gave you a colour matched set with a consistent look and feel (as the coatings changed over the decades) They would also need to be easily serviceable as I hope to own them as a long term investment.Ĭurrently I'm looking at 3 options GL OPTICS, ZERO OPTIK, CINESCOPE TLS Im looking to have the set (19,28,35,50,80,100/135) cover the Alexa LF, so any issues with Vignetting would heavily weigh into my decision. I currently don't own a stills set, but am prepared to source them if necessary. Im looking to Rehouse a set of Leica Rs, but wanted to ask the community on their experiences using/ owning sets, and who did the rehousing. ![]()
