Light Lens Lab Recreates the Dallmeyer Super Six in 50mm f/1.9
auto_awesomePixelfetch Take
Light Lens Lab keeps doing what no one else bothers with: making usable versions of obscure vintage glass that would otherwise cost a fortune and fall apart on you. The Dallmeyer Super Six had a cult following for its character wide open, and if the Rigid-ZS6 delivers anything close to that rendering in a body that doesn't require a watchmaker to service it, this is genuinely interesting for M-mount shooters. Niche? Absolutely. But if you're already in the Leica ecosystem and shooting editorial or film portrait work, this kind of optical character is exactly what separates your frames from the next person's clinical modern glass.
