  1. Hello. I'm interested in hearing from anyone whose made the move from an M9/M-E to a 262. How are you feeling about your decision? I've recently replaced the sensor in my M-E, which included a full CLA from Leica, NJ. It feels like a new camera, but I'm also reminded of the only gripe I've ever really had about it: Limited ISO performance. I max out at 1200, but even that can turn a Summer afternoon into a snowy day in B/W. I'd love to (when necessary) shoot between 1600 & 3200 without the resulting photograph becoming an exploration in Pointillism. In addition, weather sealing and the larger sensor seem like a plus. Let the CCD vs CMOS debate begin! So good people... What say you? Thanx!
  2. My beloved M-E is currently in the hospital in Allendale, NJ, for a corroded sensor replacement. The cost of this, as most of you know, is $1,595 + shipping. I also had the option to upgrade to the CL (body only) for the same price. The CL offers a host of technological upgrades, better low-light performance, blah, blah, blah. And in full disclosure: I told myself this was the right move to make... that lasted for about an hour. The thought of being without this instrument which feels so pure and so aligned with my film photography actually made me nauseous. I passed on the CL. Here's a pic of "my precious" mounted with the beautiful Canon 50mm f/1.8 (Canon Seranar). Carry on.
  3. Was very excited to take my new (to me) M-E along for vacation. I love this camera! I don't what this magic is, but these files are so much better than my old 5D3 ever put out. All taken with either the CV Nokton 35 1.2 II or Zeiss 2/50 Plara.

  4. Hallo zusammen, habe gerade auf Leica Rumors gelesen, dass es zur Photokina im September einen Nachfolger für die M-E geben könnte. (Quelle: leicarumors.com) Hauptänderungen angeblich: - Display der M240 - Akku der M240 - weiterhin den 18mp CCD Sensor Hat da von euch schon jemand nähere Infos oder ein "Bauchgefühl"? Ich finde die Änderungen sehr gut, auch wenn mein kürzlicher M-E Kauf einen etwas blöden Beigeschmack bekommt.
  5. OK. So there are loads of threads about this already, but I thought I'd add to the clutter. I currently have an M8 which I use with a 35mm f1.4 Voigtlander and f2.0 Summicron. I want to upgrade soon, mostly because I want full frame, and am trying to decide between the M240 and the M-E. If I buy an M240, it'll be some time before I can buy any more lenses. Buying the M-E will allow me to get a new Leica lens, probably a 35mm Summicron. I'm swaying towards this option, but am worried about investing in 'old' technology. Any thoughts?
  6. Hi guy, I am here new, but it looks like this is a forum full of nice people, who dont fight with each other. I have a simply question. I am considering to buy me a M-E and I have read about the banding/card problems with M9. Cos the M-E is rebranded M9, I would like to ask you about your personal experience. Are this problems solved, or are the problems with M9 are also transformed to M-E? My second question is, if you have any experience with Voiglander 35/1.4 MC? Cos the investment in Leica will be big, I have to wait one year for the real Leica glass and till this time, I am cosidering cheaper alternative. I am 35 mm guy and I would like to buy Leica as my walkaround camera. Use D700 for my professional work. Thank you for your opinion and personal thoughts. Many thanks!

    NEX to M*

    I have a nice set of 21-135mm Leica (and Sony) lenses that I have been using on NEX bodies, pending the emergence of the M240. Now that the M240 is potentially available, my mind has started to focus on what I should do: stick it out with Sony the bodies and lenses are much smaller / lighter than Leicas they are refreshed every year or two with the latest sensors, that seem to be at least a couple of generations ahead of even the latest Leica sensor, particularly for high ISO work (which for me means 1600-3200 indoor portraits, eg) they have folding screens, which can be incredibly useful focus peaking works well with Leica lenses and so I can use the 90mm and the 135mm, which are both incredibly sharp and render beautifully access to Sony / Sigma / Nikon lenses is very useful. Autofocus means that you can spend more time composing your pic, and image stabilization is a boon. The NEX-specific lenses are pretty good. If anything, it's the color rendition that sets the Leicas apart. But: APS-C sensor means that you either get v good edges from the Leica lenses or, in some cases, bad ones, where the lens has been designed for optimal full-frame centre and edge performance, letting the mid-range suffer [*]get a battered and brassy M9 or new M-E to see how I get on with the system, with the intention of upgrading to the M240 when they are more readily available, or selling out if I don't get on with the rangefinder way of life. the absence of Live View means that I would have to rely exclusively on rangefinder focus, which may or may not work well, as I have (vari-focal) glasses. Moreover the Leica has no diotre adjustment. for some reason used M9s are only about 10% cheaper than M-Es, so there is no point in going for them other than availability. but this is paradise postponed, as I am sure that I will ultimately want an M240 if I stick with the system as the better sensor and Live view are indispensible [*]wait for an M240 to appear for sale this is the riskiest approach as, if I don't get on with the M240, I take the biggest (VAT, depreciation, sales commission) hit it is not clear when the M240s will actually become available to those not on pre-order lists. Are there any other considerations that I have missed? Has anyone else made the transition from NEX to the M series? What have you found?
  8. Hallo, benutzt hier irgendjemand eine M-E mit Stativ? Dann würde mich sehr interessieren, welche Erfahrung er damit gemacht hat und mir vielleicht einen Tipp geben kann, welche Art von Stativ für die M-E gut passt. Für Landschaftsaufnahmen möchte ich nämlich ein Stativ benutzen, bin mir aber nicht sicher, ob hier eher ein leichtes oder ein schweres Modell sinnvoller ist? Klar, möchte ich eher weniger schleppen, aber eine M-E hat nunmal nicht das Gewicht von einer DSLR mit langer Brennweite. Somit stellt sich mir die Frage, ob hier eher ein schwereres Stativ angesagt ist, damit die Kombi stabiler ist. Schon jetzt vielen Dank für Euere Einschätzung! Gruß, Philosoph.
  9. Heute habe ich meine M-E abgeholt. Im Vergleich zu meiner M8 löst sie erstaunlich leise aus. Sehr angenehm, wie ich finde. Das Gehäuse in Anthrazit ist zwar nicht so schick wie das der M8 (black), aber gar nicht so hässlich, wie manche geschrieben haben. Mir gefällt, dass keine "Typenbezeichnung" mehr auf der Front zu sehen ist. Insgesamt wirkt die Kamera Leica-Typische unauffällig, trotz Metall-Rädchen. Im Übrigen meldet sich die M-E in Lightroom als M9 an, Gleiches steht auch in den EXIF-Daten. Firmware ist anscheinend auch die gleiche. Am WE geh ich mal mit der "Neuen" spazieren und schau, was sie so drauf hat. Wenn Interesse besteht, kann ich gerne ein paar Fotos posten oder einfach mal bei mir auf Flickr bevorschauen.

  10. Nachdem mir hier in Sachen Objektiv sehr gut geholfen wurde (Danke nochmals an alle Beteiligten), habe ich mich zu diversen Händlern begeben, um zu testen. Jetzt sagt mir ein Händler (den Namen werde ich nicht nennen) doch glatt, dass die M-E wegen des fehlenden Bildfeldwählers totaler Mist wäre… und hat mich damit erfolgreich verunsichert. Mein erster Gedanke, dass er M9-Lagerware loswerden wollte war falsch, da er nur eine M-E auf Lager hat. Hat er recht?
