So, after my first "First ever rangefinder experience post", here's my second one with what is now my M9, yes I bought it and I'm calling it Yogi!

my second outing happened last Saturday, me and my friend and forum member eddds took the streets of another historic coastal city called Batroun. Edgard was as usual kind enough to borrow me his 35mm Summicron to test it. 35mm has always been my favourite focal and this lens is now on my wishing list. Once I got it, I'll hardly use anything else on this camera.

Edgard was shooting film with his M7, yes, he's a film guy too and a very good one.

Here are some shots, all with that 35mm I loved except of the one of eddds shooting with the M7. Some pictures, specially interiors was taken with hi ISO "carpenter is 1000 ISO" , I miss managed that part of the ISO settings a couple of times, I could have used a lower iso there but anyway, I'll get better with time, be patient and thanks for looking. Critiques and advices are always welcome.

PS: No PP for color ones, B&W converted using LR with a some contrast added to them.

Thanks my friends, I'm sure my Yogi will serve me well in those places / situations where time or AF is not a must. for the rest there's the XVario.

No more expenses though, I'm not a fan of many lenses, the only lens I would consider getting is the 35mm Summicron. one lens fits all.

:D

If you get a 35 you'll want a 50 and vice versa.
