Chaemono Posted September 4, 2018 Share #61 Posted September 4, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) That’s it. Jesse uses the S for black and white. “More good things are happening” and “it’s good to be in the S system” all make sense now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted September 4, 2018 Posted September 4, 2018 Hi Chaemono, Take a look here Leica S3. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
helged Posted September 4, 2018 Share #62 Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) That’s it. Jesse uses the S for black and white. “More good things are happening” and “it’s good to be in the S system” all make sense now. Correct. Add a sensor-module with weak/without ir-filter, and the IR-lovers among us will smile. At least until the bill is presented... But luckily, my two M8-bodies can then be sold to partially finance the S3. Edited September 4, 2018 by helged 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaemono Posted September 4, 2018 Share #63 Posted September 4, 2018 The S has an OVF, it’s predestined for a modular approach. This will be the S’ USP. It’s a game changer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrp Posted September 4, 2018 Share #64 Posted September 4, 2018 At 28,000, it will still be cheap compared to a Phase One Medium Format. So the really expensive MF camera niche is already occupied. Still, the S lenses are extraordinarily expensive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leica S competitors are 645Z, GFX and X1D and not 150MP full frame MF. And I don't see how S lenses are better than P1 BR lenses. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenerrolrd Posted September 5, 2018 Share #68 Posted September 5, 2018 the USA price looks like a exchange rate /vat assumption ....something like its not 25K euros .... a better guess would be $25K. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff S Posted September 5, 2018 Share #71 Posted September 5, 2018 9 lenses......are you serious?? Neil Well, there are 10, not double counting the focal lengths that come with and without shutter.

In any event, funny coming from Mr GAS himself. Jeff seriously I can't imagine why anyone would have or need more than 3 x S lenses.I have 3 and only ever take 2 with me 70 plus 120........ Perfect for all my needs. As for GAS......my new Trek Madone 7 SLR runs on peddle power so no gas needed Neil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On an old thread relating to number of M lenses owned, at least one person had over 70. As far as GAS, I see what you’re trying to ‘peddle’ there. How many lenses do you have from all systems combined? Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenerrolrd Posted September 5, 2018 Share #80 Posted September 5, 2018 9 lenses......are you serious?? Neil Yes have all the focal lengths except the T/S lens . One of the biggest advantages of the S product line are the lenses . Provide a very consistent aesthetic across all the focal lengths between 24-180 ... Three filter sizes 72/82/95 . CS shutters in most focal lengths . How do I use them .....example 18 days of shooting on the west coast of Ireland . Selected lenses 30/45/70/120/180 ..two S bodies all fits in a F-Stop Backpack/ICU system . Typical daily pack 30/45/120 and one body . 120 and 180 rotated depending on location . one body and 70 ..back up system kept in room safe . (and insured ). So its a 3 lens shooting kit with one body ..plus a 180 for special situations and a backup camera and lens . This worked perfectly in practice . 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
