I can sense this love; and may it continue! I am still continuously falling into deeper levels of appreciation with my M5 much like William.

 

good cheer, thomas

I'm quite fond of mine as well. The black paint is now starting to wear off the corners and edges giving it a very nice patina. The little gem is a tactile wonder.

Alrighty then. Also note the new 50/1.4 ASPH that I had to have, thanks to seeing some of Mr. Brewers shots. This picture was taken with a Panasonic FX8 that I absolutely hate.

Hi, all - just a quick note that I haven't had to watch out for purple fringing or color banding, etc. with my MP yet. But, I do have to change the firmware (software?) every 36 shots or so. :-)

Cheers,

Mike

I just saw, for the first time, a Leica MP at my local shop. It is without a doubt, the best looking Leica I have seen in years. If I was in a position to buy a Leica, the MP would be my camera of choice.

 

WHAT A CLASSIC!!!!!!

      I love my Leicaflex SL
      By andrew01
      Hi all, I did a search and it doesn’t look like we have a thread for this beautiful camera.
      I recently acquired this example from Meister camera and am looking forward to putting a film through it.
      The mechanical precision of the camera is amazing.  Easily on par with my M3.  The meter seems to be accurate based on comparing the readings I get from my Nikon F3.  The weight with lens and leather half case is about 1300 grams compared to about 950 for my M3 with leather half case, Voigtlander meter and Zeiss 50mm f2 planar.  The original leather half case is actually quite heavy at about 200g, but I like to use these to keep my cameras in mint condition.

      After two months working with the M I can say: I love my M.
      It sounds wonderful. It feels wonderful. Takes great pictures. And also thanks to Luigi it looks great!

      I love my M-A
      By wattsy
      Not sure I can "love" a mechanical object but, in the spirit of the forum, I thought I ought to start a new thread for Leica's new film camera. (In truth, I think the M-A is really a variation of the MP rather than a different camera but I suppose Leica would like us to see it differently). It is certainly a handsome camera and, strangely, the M-A also feels a very modern camera.

      I love my M2
      By Adrian Strooper
      Hi everyone,
       
      My first post after lurking for ages. I thought all the M2's were feeling neglected and couldn't stand for it any longer!
       
      Mine is lovely and with my 35 Sumilux asph. produces lovely results! No need to go digital for me. It is much easier just to get a scan when I need it! In berlin there are some really good labs too...
       
      Cheers and to lovely M2's
       
      Adrian
