I've recently aquired a nice M2 and, thanks to a RFF user, a Canon 35mm f1.8. With respect camera it has replaced the M6 and the CL and now it sees much more use than the others. I feel the unmetered camera and the cleaner viewfinder very pleasant! Now I'm learning to "live" without "in-camera" meter and also trying to guess exposure helped with a small lightmeter. Just some pics to share and to thanks LeicaTom:

Special effects, brilliant😉
 
Thanks for your comments! I'm really happy with the M2 and the lens, that one is tiny and confortable or nice to use (I don't know if this is this is the proper way to express what I want to mean)

I know that's not all that helpful, but I really like those images. The forth one is lacking something for me though.

Yep... this was one of the lucky shots (that's the way I name frames from 36 to 38 in a 35mm roll), I thoght it would be a waste shot but I was surprised, maybe more human presence would be perfect 😱

Thanks again

Great photos! I love the Canon 35mm/1.8 only slightly less than the Canon 35mm/1.5. Both are excellent lenses. As for cameras, I use what has film in it.
