Yep, same thing happened to me with this used 90/2.8 current version. I sent it to my Leica Dealers' recommended repair guy and it quickly came back focusing perfectly.fotografz, i just bought a used leica lens for 200$. when you say calibrated do you mean send it in to leica to adjust the focus? what was the cost of the calibration?
Here's a photo taken with my newly acquired used Leica Summicron 50mm f2.0 III (f2.0, 1/60, 160). I notice that to get the target area in focus, I need to shift the focus off to the right by almost a millimeter, otherwise it'll be out of focus.

thank you for the tip, but i'm afraid i don't know who is DAG. a shop?Yep, same thing happened to me with this used 90/2.8 current version. I sent it to my Leica Dealers' recommended repair guy and it quickly came back focusing perfectly.
IMO, if it isn't warranty work, I would NOT send it to Leica ... Even warranty work is a crap shoot. I sent a NEW back-focusing 50/1.4 ASPH to them twice without any fix ... then included it in a batch of lenses and two M8s on December 3rd 2007 ... one M8 and the 50/1.4 ASPH, a 75/1.4, and a 90/2AA went to the "Black Hole" repair facility in Germany, and I haven't heard a peep since.
I'd send your lens to DAG for focus adjustment.
I've come back to this image a number of times. It is so well done. Love the framing and also the ring on the right that still looks to be swinging from the last person.Okay-dokey ... M8, 90/2.8:
Don Goldberg, an excellent repair source ... can't locate his contact info ... maybe someone else here has it readily available and will post it for you along with other good sources.thank you for the tip, but i'm afraid i don't know who is DAG. a shop?

Thanks!i always enjoy photographs with some humor. this one made me laugh.
Clearly that's not an M8 with a 35 Cron-asph, but what is it? model, film size, lens? Is it sucking down the monitor screen one frame at a time for your cgi material, or does it get to photograph real objects?1) on set ... some camera huh? M35 ASPH
Scott, it's an ARRI 35mm film camera with an Angeneux Zoom lens. It has live view video feed and recording for play backs of different takes for evaluation. Check out the the "tripod head" shown in this closer view : -)Clearly that's not an M8 with a 35 Cron-asph, but what is it? model, film size, lens?
