Nicoleica Posted September 17, 2010 Share #21 Posted September 17, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) New car for the same price as a M8.2? Where do you live, India? I would imagine that the car would be 'new' to Tonysaurus, rather than 'brand new from the factory'. Anyway, in my opinion, this choice of a camera over a car should be applauded, and I send Tonysaurus my sincere wishes for many years of joy with the camera, and with photography in general.

Advertisement Posted September 17, 2010 Posted September 17, 2010 Hi Nicoleica, Take a look here M8.2 Lust.. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
menos I M6 Posted September 18, 2010 Share #22 Posted September 18, 2010 It is a very sensible decision anyway - great candid photography can be created while commuting with bus metro and feet. ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonysaurus Posted September 19, 2010 Share #23 Posted September 19, 2010 I would imagine that the car would be 'new' to Tonysaurus, rather than 'brand new from the factory'. Anyway, in my opinion, this choice of a camera over a car should be applauded, and I send Tonysaurus my sincere wishes for many years of joy with the camera, and with photography in general. Exactly! Thank-you for the wishes, the photos I take now I will appreciate so much more in the years to come rather than a fancy car. I do have a car though. It's a crap box but it gets me from A to B (gradually) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blimey Posted September 21, 2010 Share #24 Posted September 21, 2010 a car is necessary if you don't have good transportation system in your area. you will find that they honeymoon phase will eventually die off and will long for a car that takes you places. what a better idea, a car to drive to places where you can expand your photog subjects... take that crap box and go places with the M.

ramosa Posted October 10, 2010 Share #25 Posted October 10, 2010 yes, welcome. i am much older than you, but i remember when i first held an M8, in a camera shop out in california. (in fact, it was the first RF i had ever held.) and i remember when mine arrived and when i first took it around a city, finding new things and exploring life. the change from SLR to RF had a dramatic impact on my feel and love for photography. A couple of months ago I was introduced to a gentleman who also introduced me to his beloved Leica.I am 18 and I have always used Nikon dSLRs to photograph with. Eventually to my excitement he handed me his M8.2 / Summilux 35 (?) and allowed to me shoot it for an afternoon. I was stunned. My brief acquaintance with the M8.2 reinvigorated my passion for photography. Its size and silence juxtaposed to my D2X blew me away. As soon as I save up I am sure to part ways with my beloved SLR and enter the world of the M's. I hope that more of the younger generation embrace a Leica!
