Hello everyone,

 

This is my first post to the L-Camera forum. I recently acquired a used M8.2 (I did an M8 for a few months last year) and this shot from today is my favorite so far (in the 4 days I have owned this camera).

 

Shot wide open with available light with a current generation 50 Summicron. Only PP on this is turning to b&w in Silver FX Pro, adding vignetting and photo border.

 

Coming from nearly a decade of SLR photography, gosh M photography is such a pure and pristine pleasure. I don't know how to describe the feeling even. I am probably going to own my M8.2 baby for a while. :)

It was circa 2015 and my good friend Danny Burrows was on the phone. He'd seen a secondhand Leica M8 on sale at the Classic Camera store in London. I headed down to the store to look at it. The privat

Thanks you all... for all the great shots everyone posted on this forum. The Leica M8, even without all the nice upgrades is truly a great engineered camera. To me, the M8 allows us to spend more time composing, expanding our image placement and personal desires without worrying about adjusting / applying technical data.

 

Although I own a full line of great Leica lenses, I enjoy shooting my VC 40/1.4 (multi-coated) and VC 28/1.9... both sharp, with nice tonal shading.

 

For me, every lens produces a different photo look. I just need to see the final photo in my head, then choose the right lens to achieve that result. I also love my Nikon D2xs, but will always be in love with my Leica's (M8 or film).

A few images from the past few days. M8 with the 35/2.5 Summarit-M. Such an astounding lens. These two are with me daily. My first post of images in this forum!

i feel the same way, sometimes i feel guilty for buying the camera and wonder if we have such feelings simply because we spent so much on our equipment! its really weird i refuse to shoot anything but my leica, if i want quick small point and shoot i use my iphone 3gs, everything else gets the M8 now.
