Let's see your Leica M

I think he means the non RF cameras and lenses, like the Nikon SLR, AIS lenses and maybe the Nikon SP. The winking smiley indicates tongue in cheek comment. Nice kit you have there.

Hahha... if u put it that way, there's actually 6 errors. Can you guess what they are?
 
:)

That's fun! I count 8 errors. All VERY nice errors......

OK, I start:

#1 Nikon F3
#2 Nikon Ti (is it called Ti35?)
#3 Nikon lens left of the F3
#4 another Nikon lens left of the F3
#5 Canon lens right at the head of the left girl
#6 Fuji Camera on top left
#7 Japan lens on the Leica MP-classic
#8 Leica DIGITAL camera......:p

All very cool stuff and nice pic! :)

Thanks for sharing and we have fun...
 
#1 Nikon F3 - Correct
#2 Nikon Ti (is it called Ti35?) - 35Ti
#3 Nikon lens left of the F3 - Nikon 50 f1.2 AiS
#4 another Nikon lens left of the F3 - Nikon 28 f2.8 AiS
#5 Canon lens right at the head of the left girl - It's a Canon 50 f1.2 LTM
#6 Fuji Camera on top left - Fuji X100
#7 Japan lens on the Leica MP-classic - What's wrong with a Japn lens on M? :)
#8 Leica DIGITAL camera......:p - Hahah!
 
:D

Thanks! The Fuji is a really sweet little camera. I am jealous. :cool:

Did you self-paint the Leica M3? The finish looks a little bit like my F3/T paint. Very nice. Would love to see more pics of this one!

#9 lens on the M3 is a topcon lens.
#10 Zeiss 21mm lens on the right of the right girl
#11 Canon lens mounted on the Leica IIIg
#12 I think another canon lens underneath the IIIG
#13 New CV lens right of the left girls shoulder
#14 Nikon or Zeiss (?) Lens right of the Fuji
#15 The lens on the M6 TTL is not a Leitz, I guess. But not sure...

HAHA, you are crazy, but really good stuff! All these errors, made me thinking for one little moment, that the IIIg is a Zorki, but it is not! Your point! .-)

we won't :D

really like your combo, nice Leica body with one of the sharpest fsu 50mm lenses out there and the cheapest! IMHO the lens draws nicer than a Leitz elmar....and the handling is much better.. also the only fsu lens with nice f-clickstops and easy to cla yourself.
I have/had several of these and after a cla they all turn as smooth as a Leica lens!
and not forget to mention the extra dispersion with radioactive elements

how is the rangefinder base of these cl's: adequate for most situations?

...."the thing" works fine and the rangefinder was sharp enough, even if the lens barrell was a bad mess.....unlucky with this camera, I create this combo for heavy duty (i.e.: on the beach, in rock shows etc...) but it fall on the ground from my desk, at home, and the RF window crashes .....:(

PS: I put it in the wrong 3D, there is one for CL....
Gonna show my M bodies soon...
PPS: seems strange, but the parallax correction (with the 50 frame) is better than in M2....

Just packing for a trip - still undecided, which lenses to pair.

This is my shiny new Nikkor-S.C 5cm 1.4 on an equally virgin MP, as just a few weeks with me ;-)

It's a hot shoe cover from Matchtechnical (correct writing ?).
I got a few from PopFlash - they are quite expensive for what they are, but absolutely worth every cent.

I was just sick of constantly catching the Leica bodies in bags and clothes - these make the perfect solution for the Leica bodies.

I had to grind my samples down, to fit easily each body, as I do use flash from time to time.

@Haempe

You have no GAS… You have no GAS… You have no GAS…
sure … ;-)

How is it around in Saxony, any nice old lenses for sale in any specialty shops (especially in Leipzig or Dresden)?
I will be back in Germany for a few days soon and I passed as such wonderful deals as a nice M3 for 350,-EUR or M2s for similar money (still kicking myself).

No idea, usually I don't patrol through the shops, because I have no GAS...;)
But I'm sure, if you wanna find something, you will find something...

Rapidwinder or Leicavit on your MP? Looks like black paint...

It's a black paint Leicavit MP - I just got lucky and must have been snapping a deal of the century like new second hand one at BH ;-)

There is a tempting special edition nicely used one in the classifieds at the moment, although a bit pricey - but sooooo nice … but you have no GAS ;-)
