magosak Posted April 10, 2013 Share #381 Posted April 10, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) I had a chance to test the R6 and I find the shutter to be too loud. I am finding it difficult to like it actually. I guess the only keeper from this set is the 28-90. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

naturephoto1 Posted April 10, 2013 Share #382 Posted April 10, 2013 I had a chance to test the R6 and I find the shutter to be too loud. I am finding it difficult to like it actually. I guess the only keeper from this set is the 28-90. My suspicion is that you are finding a combination of the shutter and the mirror slap to be possibly louder than you like. You can not compare that sound to an M film camera. There are a lot of movements going on here. I would say that the camera is probably no louder than any average and quite likely quieter than the average film based SLR camera. Rich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebarnman Posted April 11, 2013 Share #383 Posted April 11, 2013 I added the following (21-35, 28-90 and R6) to my Simmulux-R 80mm. I'm impressed you have the 28-90. Even so, the 21-35 is not one to sneeze at! I just came back from a road trip and either one of those could have came in very handy. I only have the APO-Summicron-R 1:2/90mm ASPH.

masjah Posted April 11, 2013 Share #385 Posted April 11, 2013 I'm impressed you have the 28-90. Even so, the 21-35 is not one to sneeze at! I just came back from a road trip and either one of those could have came in very handy. I only have the APO-Summicron-R 1:2/90mm ASPH. Couldn't agree more. Most people consider that the 21-35 is (apart of course from maximum aperture) as good as, or even better in some cases, than the primes in that range. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildlightphoto Posted June 16, 2013 Share #393 Posted June 16, 2013 Thank God for that! The Leicaflex is an antiquated, slow, mechanical throwback of a beast, that uses cds cells suffering from memory problems when exposed to a bright light source. The R3 also used 3 cds cells, however subsequent models were equipped with silicon cells. The R8/9 were 100% Leica far beyond anything the Leicaflex could aspire to, though some people swear by the Leicaflex viewfinder. Clearly, I am not one of them. All true and if I could use the DMR on the SL I'd sell my R8 bodies. The viewfinder is very important to me and never use the extra features of R8/R9.

sc_rufctr Posted June 17, 2013 Share #394 Posted June 17, 2013 Personally... I like all of the R range. There were no duds and they're all still very usable today. And I can't think of a dud lens either. Just stuff some film in there and go for it. (Tape over the Leica scripts if you're shy ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adetokunbosmith Posted June 17, 2013 Share #395 Posted June 17, 2013 Awesome cameras out there..really an impressive collection of pics posted out here..Leicas's are really great camera manufacturers..even the best of the best can't match the quality they deliver..

thebarnman Posted June 21, 2013 Share #396 Posted June 21, 2013 even the best of the best can't match the quality they deliver.. Who are you referring to when you say the "best of the best?" I think the "best of the best" is Leica. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
