Let's see your Leica M

I got the camera from Pablokornfeld, he was selling it through the classifieds and it happens that he is also from Prague:)

I just love the M5 metering, so much more user friendly than M6. If you will have a chance give M5 a try!

Vobluda, isn't this the camera you had on sale in the classifieds earlier? Gotta say I'm getting interested more now that I see it 'in real life'! :)

This was my holiday combo this year:





M3 with 50mm Summicron and a small pocket is all I need. I just love it!

When my girlfriend looked through the finder, she said: "wow, better than reality!"

Just the regular workshorse... an early M6 Classic with a 35/2.5 CV

Recetly back from Kindermann and working as it should.
I usually don't tape her up but in the summer the tape provides some extra grip and comfort.

What type of camera pouch is that?
Thanks, Steve

Hi, it's a

Brand: Crumpler. Name: Sporty Guy. Size: 1.0.

Very tough and good looking, I think. I am not a fan of strap lugs, nor half cases. I like it naked in my hands and this is perfect to me...

Unfortunately, the front door is designed more for digital, than for film, but you can put some filters in there.

I used it the first time, this year. And I have to say, I really liked it. Tough, easy to open. Only thing: the shoulder strap is a little bit hard, if you carry it a few hours on your neck. Should have a shoulder cushion or something like that.

Nearly.....well, the lens has some signs, that you don't see on the pic as has the camera. It is my second rigid summmicron. The first one, I bought was unfortunately mint. So I did not want to use it...:(

The camera is CLA'd and I installed Asahis cover, because the vulcaniter was falling off...

But it's a really nice example, that's true!

New to the forums and to Leica, i've found myself with an M2, M6TTL and CL in the space of a month or so!

The M2 is in need of repair and recovering atm, so i'll show him another time.

Here's the M6TTL i got as a trade for some artwork of mine, sporting a 50mm Voigtlander Nokton f1.1

And in more regular compact mode with a 35mm Summaron f3.5 that came with the M2

Group hug!

Thank you!

Funny is one way to put it, i personally love the proportions! Obviously given the choice, the Nokton stays on the M6 - the focusing is more accurate, the rangefinder less obscured, but it fits and you can shoot with it, so why not pop it on every now and then?

I'm in the habit of carrying one with colour and one with b&w, so a bit of lens swapping often occurs.

The M6 has sticky frameline selector and zincfass, but seeing as it was practically given to me, i have no complaints!
 
Welcome to rff!
nice cameras also you've picked well
Let me give you a hint, you better make room in your house and in your savings account, adding equipment will not stop after your first 30 days!
