Digital Leica M8 / M8.2 / M9 / M-E /Mono / M10 aka "M" Discussions about the Leica M8 /M 8.2 / M9 / M9-P/ M-E / M Monochrom / M10 aka "M": Leica digital M mount rangefinder cameras. Naming the new digital M the "Leica M" is VERY unfortunate as it will only confuse newbies with other Leica M cameras of the the past. Happily there is room for confusion with only the past 59 years of Leica M production ... since Leica introduced the Leica M system in 1953. All Hail for the Leica Marketing Department learning Leica M history!

Lovely work in the thread, photo-wise.

Less talk, more pictures, methinks.

I didn't mention it, but I too really like your perspectives Kristian - very inspiring!

@Peter - the shot with the rushing by cab is strong.

I agree. I especially like the way you captured the homeless person behind the blurred-out car, Peter.

A few from Kol Nidre (first night of Yom Kippur) here in Tel-Aviv. Feel like I'm getting a grip on Lightroom - long time Aperture user.

All Leica MM, Noctilux 50mm f1.0, red filter, ISO 2500.









More tomorrow...

Very nice. Interesting to me using a red filter at night. I like your results. My favorite subject is the girl in her bike. Looking forward to more in this thread.

Monochrom is tugging at my pocket.

What a beautiful metaphoric image. A garden of flowers and a "garden" of children balanced on the same page. Nicely done!

Kristian, what ISO rating and what lens?

Thanks for sharing this, Steve
ISO 800, 1/125 sec at f/1.2 on VC Nokton 35/1.2 lens...

Wow, I can't even believe that I am posting in this thread.....I do not have a Leica Monochrom, nor do I have or really ever used any digital Leica before.......But I was fortunate enough to hang out with Kristian the other day and got to play around with his Monochrom for a couple of shots....

All of these are from Bangkok....[/url]

Nice stuff Michael. I like the the first especially. Very sultry.

This outfit is like Mario Brothers meets The Lizard King in a Christmas Ornament factory
Only in Bangkok!
