Here’s another shot with the Leica M (240).  Again, more will follow the coming days.  I may return to the Monochrom with shots from my trip first.

Waiting for Snow – Leica M (240)

4 Comments

I’m finally back after taking a few weeks off.  We traveled to Alabama and to New Orleans and just recently got back.  I hope to post some pics from our trip in the coming weeks.

On Friday of last week I got the exciting call from Dale Photo (now called Leica Miami) telling me that I was one of the first to get the new Leica M (240).  I’ve only had a small amount of time to take pics.  Here is one of my first shots.  I could immediately notices substantial improvements in comparison to my Leica M9-P.  This shot was taken at ISO 800 and in my opinion renders skin colors much better than the M9 and has much less noise.  I think I’m going to be very happy with the camera.

I hope to post more pics soon.

She loves that white stuff we call “snow” (she calls it no).

Happy Dog

For 6 months, the most common word in our house is “doggy”.  It would only make sense to dress her up as a dog…

Where is the fruit?

One of the unique things about the Leica M system is its ability to use lenses created over the past 75 years.  I recently purchased a Leica 50mm summilux version 1, built-in 1959.  Even after 50 years, this lens has phenomenal image quality and unique characteristics.
