    Thanks. There were many nice yachts. Now if only we could afford one :-) -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • Replied in Is the latest 50mm f/1.4 summilux-ASPH really that good?
    It's quite good :-) Edit: Try it and decide for yourself. Don't base such an expensive purchase solely on people's opinions on the internet. As far as you're concerned everyone that praises it...
  • Created thread Copenhagen (10 pictures)
    All pictures taken with Leica M9 and 35mm Summicron or 50mm Summilux lens, as always, for HQ version follow the link at the end of the post. Thanks for looking....

  • Replied in Guy
    The prices vary a lot indeed. It all boils down to condition, model/features and lens. Typically, the F models (2.8F or 3.5F) are the more expensive/desirable ones as they were the most advanced...
  • Replied in Gianluca and Journeyman
    Thank you for your kind comments. No 4 is one of my favourites too. -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • Replied in Pictures with a 44yo Rolleiflex
    Thanks Hugues. The square format is quite refreshing. I thought it would be weird to use a camera which takes square pictures but after using it, I changed my mind :-) Regards, Christakis
  • Replied in *Edit
    Just read what I've written and wanted to clarify that by "thread", I meant forum subsection... Just saying... To avoid miss-understanding :-) ...
  • Replied in Pictures with a 44yo Rolleiflex
    Hi, thank you. These were all shot on a Rolleiflex 2.8F Planar. Cant remember the film of the first two but I remember it was an ISO160 C-41 process film which I sent off to be processed....
  • Replied in Pictures with a 44yo Rolleiflex
    I just bought mine and it's super exciting to use. Makes it difficult to choose between that and my Leica M for now... -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every...
  • Created thread Pictures with a 44yo Rolleiflex
    Not a Leica, apologies, but out of all the other threads, I'm sure you will appreciate it the most. I'll just claim I used this thread because Rolleiflex was German :-) Should you want to see...
  • Replied in Leica Camera Blog
    Congrats Edmond, I read it earlier this morning, very interesting post. Thanks :-) -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • Replied in Christakis
    Reason I asked was to see what developer you used to process the b/w films if you did them at home. The one I used so far is a tiny bit more grainy that I would like it. The grain in yours is very...
  • Replied in Is the 50mm f/1.8 worth it??
    The extra speed is definately worth it but I'm not sure the lens is worth it in general. Id save my money and go for the f/1.4... it's a much better lens, not because of the half stop... ...
  • Replied in From the 1st role of film
    Haha, I recently joined the film club too and I must admit, after scanning my negatives, I will never complain about dust on my sensor again. Ever! ...
  • Replied in Various pictures in countryside and coast of Cuba (11 images)
    Love 42-1, 39-1-2 & 41-2. Do you process your own films? -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • Replied in " Feet in the Water "...M9 + 50 Cron .
    Lovely as always Hugues. -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
  • Replied in Contrast
    I agree that this needs a bit more contrast. I thought "contrast!" then I saw the first reply. Nice pictures though. -- Christakis http://blog.christakisphoto.com/ (Updated every...
