  • My annoyance is really when the lack of effort shown is significantly effecting the picture. For example, there was a large print of a kid in a favela at the art show I mentioned in my previous...
  • Always a photographer, but I'd admit I do get annoyed when people choose poor equipement for their subject matter or shoot sloppily. For instance I was at the Pinta exhibition in London this week....
  • Replied in Film
    I think Leica has and always will be about shooting on film. I've never been convinced by the performance to cost ratio of digital Leica cameras. I still think a film M is a reasonable investment....
  • This whole thread is either a massive troll, or something is seriously wrong with the world. The idea of kids running around with this kid of gear and only snapshotting junk from home totally...
  • What begs, "Steal me." is any camera bag. At least a Billingham could be mistaken for a regular bag, filled with old tissues and books. I don't know any Lowepro or similar designs that carry...
  • I've lived my whole life in London and grew up in rougher areas then you'll ever end up in. I have never had a single thing stolen from me. I carry a camera around with me all day, everyday and the...
  • Commented on Is this the new Leica 'Mini M'? news story

    "Do not want!"

  • It looks like she got drunk and passed out in her back garden. I'd say the bricks and tree aren't doing anything to help this photos composition either. I'm really not sure what is Weston about...
  • Leica is one of the most anachronistic and slow companies involved in photography. Lucky for them, most photographers are equally anachronistic and slow. That somehow makes them appear less...
  • Wow, those M9s sure are noisy. Have you tried converting these to monochrome?
  • I think the only successful product would be a stripped down full frame mirrorless camera that took M-mount lenses.

    Maybe they could do away with the rangefinder (kinda radical, but frankly the...

  • I think we'd all like a FF GR, but if the Sony RX1 is anything to go by I'd rather have a APS-C GR that had a super sharp, low distortion and aberration lens, with fast, accurate auto-focus and...
  • I have my DSLR all snuggly packed away with appropriate lenses, flash and accessories in my nice old Billingham bag, but I don't like putting my P&S cameras in a bag I like to have them out at all...
  • The first M Leica I used was a M5 and it felt like a brick and had a stiff little Summicron 50mm on it. So it was amazing to use a M6. I love the M3 and M6, but I also think the CL is great. The CL...
  • Replied in Kat with a hat
    I think we are going to need a "Leica Soft-Porn/Erotica" sub-forum soon.Why so many nude cougar shots all of a sudden?
  • Replied in who uses leica
    I would go along with others and test every camera you are interested in.My personal thoughts on the new M and M9 is they are first and foremost "pleasure" cameras. They are not like a full frame...
  • Nice pictures, I think the 35mm works really well here. Why is every time I see pictures of London I just think to myself, "I gotta out out of this shitty place?"
  • My experiences with the Nex 6 and Nex 7 (not the 7n) leads me to think that they still aren't a substitute for a DSLR. I tried using my Nex cameras as if they were miniature DSLRs, but with EVFs...
  • Criticises Turner, posts awful pictures of dogs without any hint of irony.Troll, or complete imbecile? I really can't figure this one out.P.S.I thought the picture of the day was good. If abstract...
