Those rangefinders will do it to you every time. :-)


And only those true rangefinders will do. The fake rangefinder mirrorless won't do it.

If I ever buy a Leica, it would have to be one of their rangefinder film cameras, not a digital. The 35mm film rangefinder category is where Leica truly shines above the competition.

I must say I agree with that. I've been shooting film since the late 60's on my F2's and F3's and will continue to do so. I hear rumblings that film is making a comeback. So I hear.

Took delivery of my "possibly to own" Leica M9 today and I have to say...wow.

That's my reaction to the files...wow.

Secondly...this thing is a beast...it's small but built like a tank.

I'm in the process of getting used to it and have already taken a few shots with the lens cap on :(

Here is a pic of it and also my first (non-lens-cap) shot!

Not much of a picture but I'm at work so models are hard to come by.

Congratulations. Hope you enjoy every second with your iconic machine.

Yeah. Just like grocery stores are returning to manual cash registers. :mrgreen:
