I like the series of images, Erik. The B&W works with your photography are excellent.

Fantastic work, Erik! I would like to ask two questions. Do you use an external rangefinder or scale focusing? What was the film?

This one in particular with the texture of the water and then the "white caps", not waves but on the pilings 🙂. Beautiful.

Thank you all, Pan, David, Raid and Gabor!
Gabor, yes, I use a FOFER, that is a FODIS with a bigger wheel, so focusing is more precise. What always amazes me is the accuracy of the focusing system. However, it is slow.
The film I always use is Tmax400 developed in Perceptol.
I use a SBOOI viewfinder.
The prints are split-grade prints on AdoxMCC110 or Ilford MGFB.
I have three model A's, one from 1928, the others from 1930. I like the 1928 model with its mushroom release very much, but in use there is not much difference between the cameras. The condition of the lens is of course a very important factor when buying a Leica 1a.
