New Leica M240 + 50mm Summilux and 28mm Elmarit User from Mexico City! (Many Pics)

[AlejandroI]

Hi guys i am new in the forum, also a new Leica Digital user. Had an M6 for a few months but after so much hassle with the film I decided to sell it.

After a lot of thinking and saving I finally got my first digital M. Its been a lovely experience. Camera is a beauty, but will definitely need some time for adjustment.

I also bought the following used lenses, a 50mm 1.4 Summilux pre asph and a 28mm elmerit 28mm asph.

I mainly shoot street portraits, so the camera works wonderful for this.

Previously I was shooting a Nikon DF, great camera, as also other toys... 🙂

Here are some of my first picts with it, comments and critics welcome!

Welcome to RFF and to Leica digital RFs.
Nice start sharing these direct portraits ... and :
Nicely accessorized camera.
Did you immediately tape the front or did it come already incognito ?😉

Such strong portraits ... thanks for posting and looking forward to seeing more. 🙂

Thanks!

Yes as soon as I got the camera home i taped it.

Don't know if it makes much of a difference, but at least doesn't scream Leica from the distance 🙂

Thanks for joining and posting. Looking forward to seeing more of your Mexico City work. I especially like the black and white look in Pict 3, and look forward to seeing more in that vein.
