Seeking the odd 32mm focal length.

[lic4]

I like the 32mm focal length for photography. In cinematography, I love the 21mm on the S35 format, which translates to 32mm on full frame.

Using my Leica M6, I usually swap between 28 and 35 and wish for something in between. It's an odd preference, but I figured others here might understand odd preferences like these.

The 32mm FL cameras/lenses I have tried are:
-32mm/f2.8 Minitar on the Lomo LC-A (lens can be purchased separately)
-32mm/f3.5 Pentax Espio Mini
-32mm/f3.5 Canon Prime Mini
-31mm/f1.8 Pentax Limited SLR lens
-30mm/f3.5 at the widest end of the Contax TVS III

What are other lenses/cameras have this focal length?

Thank you

Reputed to be excellent optically.

There's the Meyer Optik 30mm f/3.5 Lydith often found in Exakta or M42 mount.

I don’t know about some of the other brands, but high resolution, multicoated 30mm focal length is contained within a number of high quality Nikon zooms.

There also the Rodenstock and Pentacon 30mm with M42 mounts, and there probably are some more fixed or auto-focusing P&S cameras with a 32mm.

Pentax has a 31mm f1.8 in their FA Limited line. It’s autofocus, but has everything needed to work on manual focus K mount cameras. It works on film and digital, and has a very good reputation.

A 28 with a little shoe leather zoom - done.

Thank you for all the answers; I ended up getting the Pentax 31mm with the Pentax MZ-3 camera / SLR.

There is a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 Art APS-C lens from the late DSLR era that matches Sigma’s current lens styling. I believe it was designed to cover a 1.3x crop APS-H sensor, and so it does a reasonable job at covering full frame, with a decent vignette wide open or at close focus.

Eric Woods has a good blogpost on it, and I’m eager to try my digital copy on film too.

zeiss made a 32mm Distagon for the Contaflex 126 which unlike the other Contaflex versions was not an add-on focus modifier and can be used on its own with the right adapter (providing the helix and the aperture coupling that the camera body provided)..The 126 body used Kodaks imprecise film casette system, so teh optics were wasted on that system, however the lenses held the usual Zeiss quality.
