    Leica Considering an M8 ... Thoughts and suggestions?

    I bought an M8 from a guy that had just bought it and could not take rangefinders. He didn't like manual focus. I bought it expressly for the Kodak CCD sensor as I have 2 E1's and love the sensors. The M8 is my preferred camera digitally, if I'm shooting in the 24-90 range. I'm sure the M9 and...

    Leica Show your digital Leica M

    My M6 (1st batch) came with the Leitz black dot. I was almost certain that wasn't right, that someone had replaced the red dot or painted it black. Several weeks later I noticed a little of the black rubbed off the dot and under was red. That made more sense, and as I rubbed it with a cloth, the...

    Leica Bit Coded Lenses

    I went through this several months ago. I bought the mounts on Ebay (you have to be very careful about the mounting holes), and converted 3 leica lenses and a CV 15mm screw mount. It's quite a bit of work and a lot of it is making sure the lenses focus well before conversion. If they don't...

    Leica What strap for your Leica?

    When I got my M8 several years ago, I found a used Luigi's Leicatime strap and half case in brown on Ebay. I dyed it black and have to say it's a beautiful handmade case and strap. The strap leather is quite supple with a shoulder pad. When I got my M6, I ordered a new half case and strap from...
