Stealth3kpl Posted January 30, 2012 Share #2481 Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Did you do that for the solitary framelines? No, I found I'd always reach for my M2 rather than the MP. Then I realised that it must have been because I prefer the one stage shutter release of the M2. I also noticed that I tended to ignore the meter of the MP, going by my incident meter or sunny 16. Eventually I got to thinking that I didn't need to have £2000 tied up in a film camera. I sold my M6 and my MP, bought another M2 to compliment the M2 I had. Basically, I love my M2 Hello guest! Please register or sign in to view the hidden content. Hallo Gast!

ezc203 Posted February 3, 2012 Share #2484 Posted February 3, 2012 I think all the special edition 35mm Summcrion ASPHs come in that shape/form. I remember handling a hammertone MP a while ago and I was particularly intrigued by the lens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RITskellar Posted February 8, 2012 Share #2492 Posted February 8, 2012 Here are the two modes of operation of my MP. Savvas Why is there is logo dot on your MP? Did you stick one on or what's up with this version? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smkoush Posted February 8, 2012 Share #2493 Posted February 8, 2012 Why is there is logo dot on your MP? Did you stick one on or what's up with this version? Hi Andy, No, no special edition here. Just a black dot from Leitax. It is one of the actual dots that Leica used on the Millenium M6 TTL, and the M8.2. No reason it's there other than pure aesthetics.

smkoush Posted February 8, 2012 Share #2494 Posted February 8, 2012 Which do you prefer? John John, It depends on the situation. As far as grip/case, I prefer the Leica grip. I very much like using it for walking around, and for holding the camera at eye level. Very comfortable, and effective for what it does. Highly recommended. The Luigi case provides excellent protection, I like it when taking photos in a more relaxed, slow-pace environment, but I find it very frustrating when I have to change film in a hurry. It doesn't come off easily. In addition, you have 2 things to hold onto while changing film (case + bottom plate). As far as lenses, depends on the situation. Walking around in a crowded place with lots of light the tiny 28 Elmarit ASPH is a gem. But for everything else, the 50 Summilux ASPH is magical. I'm more of a 50 than a 28 person.
