I love my MP


Recommended Posts

Just a note to repeat what I've said before: I love my Leica MP.

 

Thanks.

Me 3.

 

Ahhh, the heft of it.

 

For years I've used black Ms for work, and this MP3 is for "Me" work, so I chose classic silver 'cause it looks like a M3. Retro 50/1.4 ASPH to keep it consistant.

 

I always wondered why some people dis the idea of liking beautiful industrial design (i.e., fondlers) ... if you have an aesthetic eye, why wouldn't you love beautifully functional things?

@fotografz

 

such a wonderfull photo!

 

Ditto.

 

Great shot Marc.

 

There are a number of well-composed "product" photos on this thread...maybe Leica might take a look???

 

:)

 

We've been touting the virtues of that 50ASPH for a couple of years now. It is special.

 

Here's one of my faves...on the MP, of course...not as good as anything Ron can do, but pretty good for a piker like me:

 

Not trying to influence you or anything Dan...

 

:D

 

Thanks.

My camera is a M4 with the venerables 50 Summicron and (just today arrived) 21 Super Angulon f:3.4.

I would love add one M3 and one MP. Beside money problems, I wonder how much time I will use those wonderful tools, before films will become so rare and most slide developer labs will disappear.

Maybe just a (sad) state of mind, but my usual lab (a professional one and maybe the bigger in my region) appear to be in not so good health.

M8 is probably the same shape and dimension (maybe not at all), but it is another concept. Faster, but not the same feeling yet.

Here's my MP, with 50mm cron looking from the business end. She needs a 35mm ASPH!

 

Yes that is white tape, a bit of strap protection!

 

Hmm, frame counter is on 17 - I better do something about that!

PS: Apologies that this image was not taken with a Leica - but a Leica is the subject, does that get me a pass?

Since someone was brave enough to post the M6, I'm going to do the same:)

 

Enjoy,
