We already have a very extensive 'Mandler Magic' topic, but as much I am keen on Mandler's signature look and his contribution to the "Leica glow", there is another very distinguished gentleman in the 'House of Leica' that as a leader of Leica's optical design team since 2002 gave us a bunch of new high performance M-Lenses and pushed the terms FLE, ASPH and APO towards modern Leica perfection. He was the guy that had the balls to say Dr. Mandler's 75mm Summilux 1.4 was his *least* favorite design and went on to "Make Summilux great again" - all the way down to 21mm. Show us some of the "cli

On September 14th in 2006, Leica introduced the first digital M camera, the Leica M8 featuring a 10.3 megapixel CCD image sensor. After 15 years, a new is M11 coming for all eager M photographers in love with latest technology available from Wetzlar. I would like to know which digital model from these fruitful 15 years has been your favorite and/or which digital M model (each had its quirks) you hated the most. -
I happened to discover this online essay today - the author offers some interesting insights into the M246 Monochrom and why it is still a viable choice: Why I bought a Leica M246 Monochrom https://mwwphotography.co.uk/blog/leicam246monochrom

A polarizing question, but a fair one. If one wanted to replace the screw above the lens (on, say, M-P or M10R black paint) with the red (or black) dot logo sticker, is the hole as big as the original logo sticker? Is the screw flat so one could just put the sticker over it? I found no topic of this sort but if it has been answered please do link to the thread. Thank you for your civilized answers, please no dumb discussions of "why would anyone want to do that?" kind, it is an academic question.

New firmware is out for the M, version 2.1.0.0., but also for M262, 246 etc. Who knows what's new?

What are your cravings, needs, wishes and desires regarding M lenses that do not exist yet? 21mm Summicron? Perhaps a 24mm Summicron? A brand new and Karbe - updated 75mm f1.4 Summilux? A new line of affordable budget M lenses? Some vintage revivals? Share your thoughts - within reason of course.

When I use a one-thousandth shutter, these nasty black line marks will appear in the same position in picture. Is the problem of high-speed shutter ? Can it be solved by adjusting the shutter curtain tension? The film has been checked, it is not a problem with processing and scanning.

With all do respect to other brands........I thought the essence of enjoying a Leica M system is when you use Leica lenses AND NOT other brands....thinking that Leica M lenses are specifically calibrated to match the best result for the system, BUT my QUESTION is Can we get BETTER result and Image Quality with non Leica / other brand lenses?? Please share your best experience by indicating lens(es)

Der "Henro" - die 88 Tempel auf Shikoku ist ein buddhistischer Pilgerweg rund um diese schöne, grüne Insel im Süden Japans. Diese Serie besteht aus Momenten, die wir in diesen 3 1/2 Wochen auf dem Weg erlebt haben. Es war eine wundervolle, entschleunigte Zeit in der wir sehr viele nette, hilfsbereite Menschen und Mitpilger kennenlernen durften. Dies war der erste Abschnitt des Weges von Tempel 1 bis Tempel 35; wir hoffen den Weg eines Tages beenden zu können... die ganze Serie unter: http://www.st-photography.at

Ich reise viel und komme dabei mit vielen Menschen in Kontakt. Interessant dabei ist, dass ich fast ausnahmslos auf meine Leica M angesprochen werde. Entweder, weil sich einige vom Look der Kamera angesprochen fühlen, oder weil sie erkennen, dass es eine Leica ist. Bei vielen ist es sicher auch eine Mischung von beidem. Sehr schnell geht es dann um die Kamera und die Marke. Mir werden Fragen dazu gestellt und ich komme so sehr schnell in die Situation, mich gefühlt erklären zu müssen, warum ich ausgerechnet diese Kamera benutze. Das interessante ist, dass mir dies mit meiner Leica M deutl

Hey Guys, I wanted to buy a used leica since months now. But I am still unsure if I should go with the M6 or the M4? The only big difference is that the M6 has a lightmeter and the M4 not. But since I work in the film industry. I wanted to buy a separate light meter anyway at some point. So is it better to go with the cheaper M4 and get also a good lens instead of spending a lot on the M6? Looking forward to your replies Best Thomas

Ich sehe mich schon länger nach einem alternativen Gehäuse für meine Leica Objektive um und habe dabei das Nikon Z System ins Auge gefasst. Die möglichen Vorteile des Systems gegenüber dem vorhandenen M System sah ich in folgenden Punkten: - im geringeren Anschaffungspreis und anschließendem Wertverlust - dem stabilisierten Sensor, auch mit adaptieren Objektiven - Einem klaren Sucher, der auf die Sehstärke des jeweiligen Nutzers angepasst werden kann. Der Sucher sollte sich gut für die manuelle Fokussierung eignen. - einem ausreichend kompakten Gehäuse, mit zeitgemäße

Hi problem could have existed since long but I have just discovered it. Please test yours and let me know if such a problem is common. problem can be regenerated (not always) if you do the following: 1- make sure the camera is off first. Switch it on and directly go to menu. 2- scroll over items slowly downward (allow 2sec between each scroll) 3- camera will probably hang on last item i have noticed if you scroll quick the problem will not arrise. check it out here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ds1p1u7zbp37wso/IMG_2404.TRIM.MOV?dl=0 wouk

Guten Morgen, und zwar habe ich folgendes Anliegen: Ich fotografiere seit vielen Jahren mit Fujifilm, verwende dort die Xpro1, Xpro2 und die XT2 mit fast allen lichtstarken Festbrennweiten. Nun überlege ich meine gesamtes (oder auch nur Teile) Fuji equipment zu verkaufen und mir eine schon lang ersehnte Leica zuzulegen. Ich bin kein Bildqualitätsjunkie und habe in den letzten Jahren nur manuel fotografiert, niemals im Auto Modus, ich vermisse ein wenig das richtige Gefühl zu fotografieren und etwas mehr für ein gutes Bild zu "arbeiten". Meine Frage ist jetzt wel

Hello I have recently bought a small fujifilm flash EF-X20 for M9 (its my first flash ever) and maybe it will be a stupid question but I have no idea how to check if its properly mounted because nothing happens when I try to fire it (x mode, m mode, p mode, ttl/manual). I press push button to take it strongly to the end in the hot shoe but cant hear the final click, maybe the contacts dont cover everything and there is no signal? it looks strange from the side as if it couldnt go further or maybe its sth else? The flash fires when I only press a test button.
