xiaubauu2009 Posted July 12, 2018 Share #1 Posted July 12, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) A few months back, I was very excited with using Leica M246 on a Cambo Actus, turning Leica M into a technical camera, a real B+W technical camera.... however, due to work schedule, I have not had any opportunity to use this setup right after I first tested it. Since it's Typhoon season in Shanghai, I have decided to wake up early today and try out this setup again.... and the result are terrible!! The shame of me shooting about 20 shots only to remember that I didn't even focus my composition.... and the worse is that I even forget to secure and disengage LV to reduce shutter shake... the result speaks for itself.... terrible... I think I need more practice! Leica M Monochrom Type 246 + Cambo Actus + Cambo Actar 24mm f/3.5 3 Image Stitched! 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you get another try one day - of course without any of the damage that may come with a typhoon.

DirkR440 Posted July 12, 2018 Share #3 Posted July 12, 2018 Shanghai is nice with the Monochrom, a few years ago I've been there at a similar position and made some long exposure pictures: Shanghai by Dirk Raffel, auf Flickr The idea with the three stitched images is great! I'm already looking forward to see the focused results! 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiaubauu2009 Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted July 13, 2018 I gave it a try again today. Woke up at 3:30am, drove to the Bund, and pick a more solid ground to setup the camera. The result is much better and I finally recover some of the technique and discipline...

LichtUndDunkelheit Posted July 13, 2018 Share #6 Posted July 13, 2018 It looks as if the architects of this cities thought long and hard about the question "how can we make a convincing scenery for photographers" ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
