Advertisement Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Hi cheewai_m6, Take a look here I love my MP. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jwang99 Posted January 22, 2010 Share #1422 Posted January 22, 2010 Definitely not - it needs to be with MY black M7, can't you see that? Very nice combo jwang. Is the MP as heavy as a brick like the M7 or more like a featherweight like the M6 classic? Hi, M7 is 610g and MP ist 585g, the Nocti ist 700g. jwang Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwang99 Posted January 22, 2010 Share #1423 Posted January 22, 2010 Jwang99 Very Nice! How much does the Nocti block the viewfinder? Hi, i think only 5%. jwang Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
time Posted January 22, 2010 Share #1424 Posted January 22, 2010 (edited) i have to get an mp before i die. but i can't sell the m6 either, cause it's my first leica. but i'll get an m9 before the mp. i will not buy anymore leica Ms after the mp. Why not sell your first M6 and DO NOT buy M9 - and just buy the MP? I sold the M8 to get the MP +++ M's "Back[film:(] to future[Full frame and better dynamics]" ....Yes, I has sold my first M7, M6.....

ducttape Posted January 29, 2010 Share #1432 Posted January 29, 2010 Even twins, phantastic ! Isn´t it incredible you can attach a 60 to 70 year old lens to a camera made in 2008 ? What nice combo, thx for sharing. Best I'm about 10-12 pages into this thread. This point really is amazing and worth commenting on. Totally amazing!

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted January 30, 2010 Share #1433 Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) >> ducttape Sorry, no MP, but it even works this way with a lens from 1928 ... Hopefully it doesn´t look too weird.

stealthman_1 Posted January 30, 2010 Share #1434 Posted January 30, 2010 --^---AWESOME! I always wonder, what the designers of these great lenses would say if they could see their work lasted 70+ years and still performed beautifully. How proud they would be! I've got a cobbled mod that allows (with great patience) a 110 year old Euryscop to mount on a D3. I'd love to see what your combo produces, I'll bet it's quite glorious.

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted January 30, 2010 Share #1437 Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) >> stealthman_1 >> David Hope it is not off-topic in this wonderful MP-thread. If so, mods., feel free to eradicate this ... Here is a quick sample taken with the above digital combo this afternoon. The weather in Germany is very wet and cold just now, so this is an indoor-shot just behind a window (M9 with a 50mm ELMAR 3.5 - set to f 4.5 - from the old Barnack days, about 1928). >> Phillipe this is a great combo ! I would love to use a NOCTULUX on the digital LEICA-M. Enjoy your LEICA MP ! Best GEORG Welcome, dear visitor!

time Posted January 30, 2010 Share #1438 Posted January 30, 2010 Not the best of pictures, but then, now you know why I sold my M8 and bought an MP.I really do enjoy film more. It is good to be back in the fold. David I did the same thing as you did - "back to future;)" - sold my 99% new M8 and bought a new MP. Much more joy and feeling.... Before I sold the M8 I decided to go for the M9. I look at older Leica catalogues, then I felt in love with this timeless tool... (Yes, I had M6, M7..) After having tried the M9 at a Leica AD, I still do not regret going for the MP instead of the M9. One BIG reason: The feel of solid mechnical build quality. I will rather get a cheap digital camera for "simple shots" and spend some £$ for films.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrewer Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share #1439 Posted January 31, 2010 Woww. Nice, your MP is like mine I love my MP. There are things I might sell in the further... But not the MP. The MP is far better than any other Leica M I have tried. It's a timeless masterpiece of mechanical photographic hardware Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
