Ellie , here is a picture of my MP mounted with a 135 Apo Telyt Asph.

The grip is very useful  to properly hold the camera as it is a bit heavy on the front

I often use a tripod with this combo

How does the MP handle the long lens? In my system there still is a place for a 135 mm but I have always been hesitant because I thought it would be too long, for the Jupiter 11 on my soviet rfs I use an external finder.

Cuthbert, I have no problem to focus with this "long" lens.

It is in the smaller frame of the viewfinder , we do the focus
and sometimes I don't need magnifier because the rangefinder

is very accurate and with my eyes , without glasses, no need loupe

Henry, I got a M9-P 2011 and I'm sending it to Leica today. The sensor has probably corrosion, my M7 has no problems ;)

Ellie,  mine (M9 bought new) too , sent last year for corrosion.

 

Anyway digital has a limited life, with the race for pixels that depreciates quickly,

do not have the film quality (color, contrast, , deep black, nice

gray scale, non smooth edges, etc. ...better general rendering without

correctioncould have sensor problemswith often dust or grease on

the photo *

and finally more expensive to purchase !

 

Keep our film camera ! :)

It's wiser

* Although film has its dust removed by compressed air

Hello Adam,

 

just a Question - after Scanning, do you reduce the grain of your images with various tools? There is nearly no grain in your Portra Scans, especially this one.

Neither none of my scans has farly this low amount of grain.

 

Best regards

Daniel

Hi Daniel - Yes, after scanning, I work with the flat scan in LR to bring it back to life, and at the end I apply some NR and sharpening in LR, the amount of which varies according to the image.  Best, Adam
