Today's blog features a series of photos taken on the way home with a Leica M6 TTL and 35mm lens and the Fuji X100, as well as some commentary and a little comparison.

Please take a look at the blog, here:

I like a lot of your shots, but I have to say your M6 examples don't do the camera/system justice in the slightest, whether it's the fault of the Nokton, or the filter, or your focusing.

I have to agree. I was disappointed with the M6 shots - I usually get great result from that. Still not sure what it is. Perhaps the filter. As for focussing I usually never have a problem, but I used to use the M6 classic, and this TTL has a .58 finder, I liked for wide angles. It is possible that the smaller magnification meant I was not as accurate as usual. Will try it again with a different, 28 lens and colour film to see.
