Nick De Marco Posted April 11, 2021 Share #1 Posted April 11, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) It has been ages since I have posted on this forum, or caught up with some of my good friends on a Leica day out. I hope to again soon - and although I haven't been posed I do lurk and read, especially recently. This March I decided to turn over a new leaf with my photography, to return to using my digital Leicas and to be a little more disciplined about it. A number of things made me think about, and ultimately finally buy, a Leica M Monochrom (typ 246). I thought about the M10, or the M10 Monochrom, but apart from the big price difference (I found a very good used M246 at a great price from Ivor at Red Dot) I wasn't sure I wanted the additional resolution of the M10 M, or that the M10 was going to be a significant improvement on my M (typ 240) which I have been neglecting using. I decided the 246 was the one for me, and I am delighted I did. I have really enjoyed using it so far. I wrote a short photo essay about my new leaf, and included the first photos I have taken with the 246 during March: https://rangefinderchronicles.blogspot.com/2021/04/march-2021-new-leaf.html I hope to use it a lot more, over the next months and years. So far I am a very happy user. Nick 12 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick De Marco Posted April 22, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) Another architectural photo I took with the Monochrom M in March from the series which I like - using the Zeiss Tele-Tessar 85/4 which I have found to work very well with the Monochrom Welcome, dear visitor!
