The day I met my Vario

Little more than a month ago, during my visit to LA, I went to the Leica Store Los Angeles to see the store many photographers talk about, also to discover the Leica X Vario. when I got there, I immediately understood why that store was so loved by those who have visited it. it's an extraordinary visual and emotional experience. I also understood why Leica has called the X Vario a Mini M, simply because it felt like one. I loved that tank feeling of it in my hands... but wait, that was not everything. Mr. Tom Smith from Leica US Akademie came to me to ask if I could join him in his coming Leica X Vario Discovery event planned to take place next day! I came back, and had a blast using and shooting with a Leica for the first time in my life. i did it all in B&W, all manual and i was amazed buy the result! here it is... Hope you'll enjoy it.

PS: That's the day during which I became a happy Leica Owner

 

Here's a link to the album. Hope you'll like it.

Rodrigue -

 

Congratulations on your first Leica and welcome to the Forum. I'm glad you had the opportunity to meet Tom - He's a delightful man. I look forward to seeing your images posted in the photo section.

Fingers loops!?

Leica Part Nos. 14646 14647 & 14648. Note that the grip shown is for the Leica M. The finger loops are the same ones as supplied for the X Vario, although few have been supplied to dealers yet, I believe.
