After dozens of posts in the M246 thread, this is my first in this thread, because, after resisting for a year, I sold the M246 and bought the M10M.  We (finally) had a rainstorm in the San Franc

Just traded in my M10 for the M10 monochrom. I am in love. I have never shot with anything like this before. Wow!

The photos from this camera (first two days with it) are just stunning and beautiful. I also notice that the camera is challenging too. You have to really think about composition, lighting, and it seems to me that post processing is important too. Not every photo looks good in black and white. I am really enjoying the challenge and want to get better. The photos on here are stunning, there are so many great photographers out there! Always open to helpful comments and advice. I'm loving this whole new way of 'seeing'.

 

Just curious, did you shoot b&w film at one time or did you start out in photograph with digital imaging? A lot of people , myself included, feel that shooting b&w forces a way of seeing light that is different than when shooting color. Much of that derives from starting out with b&w film.

I think that is right. When training in realistic drawing and painting, for the first year we could only draw using charcoal or pencil. So we had to convert all colour into the grey scale. To start we used a red filter in front of the eyes as that takes away most of the colour, later the eye adapted and became more sensitive to the tonal variations and less focused on the differences in colour. I haven’t tried that recently or any other colour filter but it may be interesting for some to use something like that during the composition phase to see if there is a difference.

Regardless, the eye can become sensitive to tones variances which are necessary for b/w imagery as different colours with the same tone will all have the same value of grey/light. From my experience I am fairly certain that those who have deeper experiences working with b/w photography have also developed a more refined tonal eye.

I was born in 76. My mom was a Minolta person and had her own darkroom developing photos. As we got older she got out of doing that but I recall that some of those beautiful black and white photos were timeless and some of the most memorable I’ve seen. Not for the technical aspects but they seemed to capture something unique and special. I did shoot film but by the time I was out of college and had my own camera it was digital. My mom went into Sony because she was with Minolta before. My first real camera was the Sony Nex7 and then to the Sony line of A7iii. I got a Leica Q for my 40th birthday and loved it. I bought a used M240 and have never looked back. It’s taught me a lot about photography and slowing down and thinking about the shot instead of the quick autofocus type photo. I have fallen for Leica and dumped all my Sony equipment. I never shot black and white film but remember buying film in my 20s. The B&W experience is a new one for me and it does change the way you see the world!

I think you're headed in a good direction. I was going to say, "right direction," but there really isn't a right or wrong here--just how some of us see the world differently than others. I once walked through an exhibit of photos with Sam Abell (great Nat'l Geographic photog) as he judged the work and every time he viewed a color photo he'd say, "How would this work as a black and white image?" Sometimes color can overwhelm and become the main component of a photo whereas a b&w image needs to work on many more levels to be successful.

Enjoy the M10M. It's an amazing piece of equipment.

I have always likes older things,  historical places etc; the older I become the more natural these places appear to me.
