lleo Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9185 Posted January 3, 2016 About three years ago I took a picture of a grand-niece with an FM3a (forgive me, I knew not what I did): Olivia by chrism229, on Flickr C. Beyond than beautiful. She's a dream, Chris. I'd happily shoots some tenths pic of her. Nice one. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lleo Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9186 Posted January 3, 2016 Freienbach by -Ric Capucho- And now something a bit different... using the M6 and XP2 again. I don't think this shot would have caught my eye through the smaller viewfinder of the Contax T2. That's definitely part of the Leica magic for me: a titanic and uncluttered viewfinder. I also looked through the viewfinder of an M3 a couple of months ago, and it was a step larger still. And as I only ever use the 50mm anyway (I've heard the M3's viewfinder is too big to deal with a 35mm lens) then that may be the way I'll go when I'm finally ready to let go of the internal metering. Incidentally, we had another foggy day on the 1st, and my wife and I had a (cold) walk along an unbelievably magical lakeside. I of course took my M6 and snapped away a roll of film, running out of frames well before I ran out of compositions of trees, reeds, you name it. The light was of course amazing. Halfway through I realised I was ignoring the metering and doing my thing. Now *that's* a step for me... will be interested in seeing the results. If they're ok, I'm gonna take the bloody battery out of the M6 and see where that takes me. Ric Great, great pic. Perfect for a big size print to hang on the wall.

Keith (M) Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9188 Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) These are always my favorites. When all of the other shots are forgotten, these prints will come out of the shoebox when your children are grown up and they will have fun looking at them over and over again. My only advice? Either buy a Canon CP910 Dye Sub printer and print them at 4x6 and keep them in a shoe box...OR...buy the darkroom gear and print them that way. Either way...PRINT THEM! Pictures don't live until they can be held in your hand and passed around. Could not agree more - although my sons may not always agree! In 40+ years time, how many of todays digital files will be readily available to show? (An old argument, I know - so best not go there!) Daaad, where's reverse?

Suede Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9189 Posted January 3, 2016 Wall Street, NYC IIIg, 28mm Summaron (LTM), Portra 400 I find this a superb photograph. Brilliant detail: WSNY on the manhole cover. Getting the lady in mid-step; the legs and their shadow look like the Bluetooth icon to me. The light and shadow distribution is very appealing and balanced.

christoph_d Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9194 Posted January 3, 2016 Thank you Christoph. The v 3 is one I'm also curious about, together with the v 4. I look forward to seeing an example from it. ... Philipus, Here, as promised some pictures taken with the v3: Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Shibuya crossing Tokyo. A fantastic place to "bath" in the crowd and take pictures of people passing by. Set on f11 and 2m, everything from 1m to infinity is sharp... I would guess that the v4 has a slightly better coating to deal with the rather strong light... (FP-4) Same day somewhere else in Tokyo we met this dog and its owner.

christoph_d Posted January 3, 2016 Share #9195 Posted January 3, 2016 One more taken with the 28 v3, this time in Lisbon. Early morning meant little light, so here the aperture was set to 2.8. Still leaves enough sharpness to nicely draw the background. (Fomapan 100) Welcome, dear visitor!

Doc Henry Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share #9197 Posted January 3, 2016 Henry. I love the poppy series. Wonderful colours. Thank you Trev the little history : Every year, I go hunting for poppies in my area by car as material at the beginning I have only M digital (M8,M9) and after M analog (M7,MP for b&w). As I said earlier , the digital pictures do not suit me (too thin petal as "cigarette paper", edges too perfect, "sharp" as a razor, color not satisfactory) and since I only photograph with M7 and MP Best Henry I'll post for you poppies with Fuji film and Kodacrome 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing Best Henry Thanks, Henry. These are examples of the supremeness of the 28mm summaron. Film was portra 400 in all. Everyone who uses a 28mm on film should have a summaron...
