Raul Posted October 17, 2012 Share #1  Posted October 17, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi all,  I want to share with you an article that I wrote on my "blog" about my experience with Leica M ownership as a person who has been shooting for only 6 years with DSLRs and having only very minimal experience with rangefinders or film. It may help those who are like me that are on the fence regarding switching to a digital M. For the old timers, the article is nothing new  After a year with the Leica M9, a few thoughts and a few pesos later | Raul Echivarre - The Bigger Picture  My site is non-commercial and is pretty much geared towards like-minded amateurs. But if it violates any forum rules, please feel free to delete my post.  Thank you.  Raul 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colonel Posted October 17, 2012 Share #2  Posted October 17, 2012 "The Leica M is a lot like Excalibur of King Arthur fame. The Lady of The Lake either shows itself or it doesn’t. And when it does, a fool and his money are soon parted :p"  Nice one 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfgang Chuck Posted October 17, 2012 Share #4 Â Posted October 17, 2012 Thanks for sharing. Reminded me of the first time I dropped an M6. It wasn't mine. I was trying out a friend's to see if I was interested in getting into Leica. Other than some dings and scratches the camera was fine and then it was mine. Decision made! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

platypus Posted October 18, 2012 Share #7 Â Posted October 18, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) There is no question about it; either you are a Leica addict or you are not....if you are then you can't help yourself.....so you may as well go with the flow and enjoy the trip. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
