A couple of weeks ago, passing from NY I acquired a Leica MP + 2/35 cron from PhotoVillage (great place!) - I really love the combination, and have been using it quite a lot lately. Here a few from the first roll shot with it, during a visit at the MoMA. It's great to be shooting & developing film again!

All with the MP & 2/35 cron (IV). Film is Tri-X, developed in Ilfosol, scanned with a Nikon Coolscan 5000.

 

C&C as always very welcome.

Your MoMA photos are stunning. We love the redone MoMA, with its exceptionally photogenic space. The only downside is that they've elected to reduce the amount of their astonishing permanent collection kept on display. I too have a bunch of MoMA photos on our site (the first New York photo gallery page, and next week some new ones on the 12th New york gallery page).

MP + 35mm 'Cron

 

Yum

 

Marriage made in heaven

 

Don't you love how compact the combo is? You can stick it in a coat pocket and it's ready to produce these amazing shots time after time

 

Best camera/lens kit ever--hands down

 

Thanks

Thank you Robert! I must say I LOVE the combo - and Tri-X, well, after many years with digital, is fantastic to be back at it!

Thank you very much Stuart! Indeed the MoMA is great for photography, though the day I was there the air was probably not working perfectly - very warm environment indeed :confused:

 

Excellent composition.....nice work~

 

Thank you very much!

 

Vieri, well done. Thanks for giving me a shot of NYC's finest while on sorjourn. All the best.

 

Sure, no problem - I wish I could be there more often too...

The MP + 35 is great, always with me (well, a M8 is too most of the times, for that matters, I am never leaving with less than two cameras LOL - but hey, they are so portable!) - Thanks for your comment, glad you liked the shots!

 

Vieri,

 

I agree with the above comments. Great work done.

 

Thank you very much Ivan! A very photogenic setting indeed, makes it a pleasure to shoot... :D

 

Hi Vieri,

Stunning work, magnificent pictures !!

You proved to master this little duo, Leica MP + 2/35 cron :)

Just perfect.

All the best

Ruben

Cool, thanks for sharing - it was basically some 50 cm away from where I shot...

 

Vieri, very clever series. Thanks for sharing.

 

Thank you very much for viewing and commenting, I am glad you enjoyed :)

 

Nice work. Thank you for sharing.

Great series, especially number four!

Thank you

Charles

 

Thank you Charles, glad you enjoyed :D

 

Several supeerb images here. I particularly like the shot looking down the stairs, but others are also very nice. Film does have a beauty to it when it is handled properly.

 

Thanks a lot Brent, indeed film has a quality of its own - definitely worth pursuing IMHO, in the digital world! :D
