and Thanks Very Much FrancoD for the really detailed repair manual. That will really send one off to the specialists! A simple RF adjust is fairly simple, but that is incredible. I've downloaded it ...

Hi, I have adjusted many Leicas in the past and the easiest to do quickly but hardest to fix completely is the Leica CL. On M and LTM Leicas there is a staightforward way to adjust the Horizontal ...
-
I would like to add though, that I know quite a few photographers, pro and amateurs, that have bought brand new Leicas at their full prices. They've just wanted "new" kit and had the money. A few...

Same here, have owned over a dozen over the last 35 years but currently have 4, an M4P, M4-2, M2 and CL. Not one body or lens purchased new, way too expensive! Admittedly none of the Leicas were...

I still use my D3s and D700 for a lot of pro work. Only when client use dictates it do I go up to 24MP(D750 or A9) or 46MP (D850 or A7RIII). The D3s (which I've had for over 10 years) and D700...

The best part though about the Nikons though was that some of the lenses I bought in those days , that survived theft, I still use. And the early AF lenses that I bought in the 1990s, esp the...

well, I'll add to the anecdotes... Since I started photography in the mid 1980s I mainly used Nikons, with forays into Canon (AE-1P, no mechanical backup), and Olympus. I loved the size of the...

@Niko very much agree. There were many years there (in the times of the Trash Can MacPro and laptop dongles galore) that a lot of pro users felt left out and stuck with aging MacPro towers and...

@ProfH, Thanks so much for replying with such a long write up. It does make sense, and good to know

@ProfH This "electromigration" of which you speak sounds quite interesting. Also the concept of sensor aging. I have noticed some interesting behavior from older sensors and would love to learn...

Beautiful craftmanship! Great idea well executed, and well finished. The final camera looks and (by the samples) photographs lovely. I use a Mamiya Press with a 50, but it's a huge, heavy, clunky...

haha...usually lost count of the scotches, next morning cutting six frame strips with a killer headache....then going out again, shooting for a full day...those days when it was quick to recover...

In my almost 4 decades working professionally, I've spent a very long time in pro equipped darkrooms, whole days and nights at a time in the dark, waiting for the prints to come out of the RA4...

one from an old timer: when travelling on some jobs, I would set up darkrooms in hotel bathrooms. It allowed me to process as we went along, so everyone could see how things were going(ahhh, the...

as far as darkrooms go, I had a pro BW darkroom until 2 years ago, and now have a setup in my laundry and bathroom at home (up to 10x12prints and 6x9negs). I love BW and will keep doing it for...

These days I think that's the point. Analogue critical colour was always a highly trained skill. We used to have to use refrigerated batched pro films, top pro labs with constant monitoring,...
