If there was something 'bad' to say I am sure AP would have said it. They give a couple of negatives - one for price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcg Posted February 19, 2020 Share #68 Posted February 19, 2020 Yes, but apart from the no colour, no autofocus, not cheap, won't go underwater – what has Leica ever done for us? Splitters! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice carving was part of the Glow festival this past weekend here in Calgary. Looks like they shot on Friday or Saturday. I bought my MM1 and M246 from Chris while he was still working at The Camera Store. Ironically the day my M10M arrived I was paying for it with box sitting on the counter when Chris and Jordan came into the store before heading out to do a preview on some other gear. I gave Chris and Jordan a bit of a rough time that they needed to step up their game to compete with Dave along with Evelyn who took over his and Jordan's role with TCSTV. It was all good humour. Dave is now my sales person at The Camera Store. I headed downtown on Sunday to do some shooting and stayed through the evening to catch some of Glow mainly William Close and the Earth Harp. Earlier that day I was wondering around some of the inner city communities and I kept recalling Chris' humour when he tested the M240 a few years ago that certain scenes in back alleys of discarded chairs, suitcases, the bike just screamed Leica I chuckled when I saw similar scenes. Glad to see Chris mentioned filters and used a nice selection of lens including the new 90. Enjoyed the hindsight review given I have had my M10M for a few weeks.

marcg Posted February 20, 2020 Share #72 Posted February 20, 2020 Very interesting and detailed review and doesn't seem to be simply a marketing hatchet job. I'm not sure that he said that he "expects" Ibis in the next M camera. He says that he thinks we will may have to wait until the next M camera for some of these real substantial upgrades. So – not quite as predictive as "expects". 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamurah Posted February 20, 2020 Share #74 Posted February 20, 2020 I thought his review was....'polite'. If he was totally jazzed about the M10M it did not seem to come through during the review. For anyone financially suited and poised to purchase an M10 Monochrom, this review certainly would not deter you. Likewise, I felt his presentation of the camera avoided highlighting any direct comparisons to other cameras that do Black and White well. *Except* for the fact that the review was shot on a Fuji with Acros simulation. Lol that was perhaps a subtle jab methinks. If you read the feedback on YouTube, there were as many praises for the Acros look of the interview as there were for the Leica. Obviously, the commitment to the Leica ecosystem is not for everyone. For those that appreciate the aesthetics and experience that shooting with a Leica M offers, and have the means, I highly recommend picking one up. It is so choice. 😎 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are interpreting his comments and Youtube review very creatively 🙂. What Chris said in Youtube video is "... we're gonna have to wait for an M 11 before we get some of those real substantial upgrades ...". In his comments, Chris wrote: "So yes, I want IBIS in this camera." 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rivi1969 Posted February 21, 2020 Share #77 Posted February 21, 2020 Well, as I said to him the chances to have an M11 with IBIS is close to minus-zero. So what he wishes is irrelevant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaemono Posted February 25, 2020 Share #78 Posted February 25, 2020 I think, Chris Niccols actually said someone would misrepresent his comments on LUF in order to make him look ignorant about the fact that an M body will never have IBIS. 🤣 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
