Aplum Posted March 28, 2014 Share #1 Posted March 28, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi everyone, so after two months of saving(while attending a university, go pharmacy!) I finally managed to save enough for a Leica M6 body and a voigtlander lens(:/ can't afford a leica summi yet!). First impressions, just wow, most beautiful camera I have ever held in my hands. Just beautiful. The build is amazing too. Up to now I have been shooting with SLRs and they are really loud and clunky when compared to this thing. Even advancing the film on my Olympus SLR was really loud, when I cranked that bad boy on the leica I was not sure if I had done it right, it was so silent. The shutter is very silent too. But right now sadly I am stuck in the dormitories because I will have exams soon so I don't have the time to go outside and have fun(sometimes I wish science was as relaxing as photography). But anyways great camera, love it, happy to be part of the Leica family, now I just have to eat ramen for the rest of my life:D Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted March 30, 2014 Share #2 Posted March 30, 2014 Welcome to the Leica-User Forum, Aplum! Enjoy your camera. It might takes 30+ films to get used to a LEICA-M, at least. Don´t give up too soon. Regards GEORG Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
