Advertisement Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 Hi jaapv, Take a look here Germany /Leica academy. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Rona!d Posted June 20, 2007 Share #82 Posted June 20, 2007 Guy, so many "stillvideo cameras" Ask the academy to give you some MPs/M7s for the Porsche-Tour. The alpes look great on slidefilm! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ho_co Posted June 20, 2007 Share #83 Posted June 20, 2007 Dunkin Donuts is legally prohibited from calling their "coffee" coffee in Berlin, I hear... Confirmed. Same applies in Poland (where I am today... ) So what do they call it? (German version please; I wouldn't remember the Polish.) Thanks! --HC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pemayeux Posted June 20, 2007 Share #84 Posted June 20, 2007 last one for tonight . Well you know what they say some things just taste better than Ice Cream. 75 lux , still love this lens and you can see why here I'm glad that someone else feels the way I do about the 75 'lux. It has a quality that I think is lacking in the newer improved 'cron. It's good on the M8 but it is spectacular on my MP with b&w film. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bernd Banken Posted June 20, 2007 Share #85 Posted June 20, 2007 So what do they call it? (German version please; I wouldn't remember the Polish.) Thanks! --HC This sort of hot brown "something" we name it in Germany "Muckefuck". No joke:D During the war people roasted grain to get a similar taste like coffee, but as we know it's impossibel to achieve. So this name above has to be spelled like "Moockefoock",not the english spelling please... Bernd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic vic Posted June 20, 2007 Share #86 Posted June 20, 2007 not academy but important : you want to do something good and valuable with your m8, besides talking techs? take a look and contribute here with your cameras. http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/other/26874-edward-burtynskys-photos.html it is more important and more "leica spirit" and more photographic than talking techs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoteca Posted June 20, 2007 Share #87 Posted June 20, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm a bit worried. It's just past midnight (here in Germany) and I didn't see nothing from our beloved Guy. Is he sleepy? Got no Mac-connection? Would he probably have been stopped by the Swiss police because of this terrible speedy car? Then he could probably suffer in a Swiss prison without good food and (worse) no wine? Perhaps we shall prepare to free him? So, not getting pictures tonight makes me nervous. Wake up! Best wishes! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this name above has to be spelled like "Moockefoock",not the english spelling please... Thanks, Bernd! Amazing how coffee tastes differ. In some parts of Latin America if you ask for coffee, you'll get some hot water and a pouch of Nescafe! (That's in the non coffee-growing regions, of course. ) But what would I ask for if I went into a Dunkin' Donuts outlet in Germany? Would I ask for "Kaffee"? Or would I ask for "eine Tasse heissen Muckefuck"? --HC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or would I ask for "eine Tasse heissen Muckefuck"? --HC Howard, younger people never heard this really old word. They could get angry about you.... There is an old brand, named CARO, a coffee substitute made of roasted grain. A wikipedia page explains the word Muckefuck is derived from the french "Mocca faux" false coffee. An influence from the troops of Napoleon in the Rhineland. Take a cup of coffee sit down and study a bit the german:( page of Wikipedia: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muckefuck Bernd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ho_co Posted June 21, 2007 Share #92 Posted June 21, 2007 Thanks, Bernd! One mark of "French Quarter Style Coffee" as sold in New Orleans is the addition of ground chicory beans. But that's in addition to coffee, not a replacement. I haven't had a chance to check the Wikipedia article, but I will. 'Mocca faux' is as good an origin for 'Muckefuck' as any other, and New Orleans derives a lot of its history from the Cajuns (="Acadiens," or French Canadians), so the French Connection sounds reasonable. --HC Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

carstenw Posted June 22, 2007 Share #100 Posted June 22, 2007 What are those black and silver monstrosities behind the pilsner glasses?. Looks like a D2X or related camera, and a 20D/30D. Every time I see an SLR lens, I am reminded why I switched. Even the Leica 50mm Summicron-R which I once owned, and which once looked so compact to me, looks like a monster now.
