Great video, alan schaller has to be one of my favorite photographers ever. His style just can speak to you on many different levels. Also he seems genuinely like a cool guy you can hangout with and take photos together. Thank you again 🙏🏻

Forget all the bs tech that those more "convenient" cameras have today, like dual pixel af, 2 billion megapixels, 4k 120 fps, ibis lol. In the end, the ultimate output is the moment of joy you have when you look at the picture or when you show it to someone. And this is not a number. But it sure is superior to any camera made today and possibly ever. A true expression of character with all the harmonious imperfections in every shot. The colors, the tone, almost a 3d effect sometime. End game camera in my view would be the Leica M8 rangefinder.

Are you using a light meter? Thank you.

Beautiful pictures and stunning camera!

guys if im astigmatic is a bad idea cop one oh this M?

More dust on your sensor in opening shot than in my vacuum cleaner!!

Shooting a rangefinder you probably shouldn't close your left eye when focusing and framing.

Nice video. Thanks

The lens?

It all makes sense now, thank you very much!

leica is the biggest con since Tom Sawyer Whitewashing the Fence

this might be the first time someone explained the rangefinder experience, by actually explaining it, instead of just using stupid ass buzzwords.

Jetzt möchte ich eine Kamera von euch testen 😍 wäre das möglich ?

SEND IT, CHAMP !

GREAT CONVERSATION!

Congrats for this video and your channel! What about if I'm in full manual mode (I choose my ISO, shutter speed and aperture)? I guess it doesn't matter which light metering mode you choose (spot, evaluative etc...). Am I right? I've done some tests, and the metering mode makes no difference when I'm in full manual.Could you confirm (or not...) please ? Regards.

Why not shoot with a mirrorless camera like Sony A7RV

Have used a leica m rangefinder. Very bad focus experience. Sold it after 2 month. Why making life so difficult when u have already top notch focus systems on cameras.

Maybe it's just modern photography, but I dislike Alan's style. His photos look like AI. Street photography for me needs a grittyness to the images and some soul. These are soo clean that they look fake. I find them really boring and this guy is overrated.

Like Nikon SIII

I have Leica IIIa from 1937 ^^ and it is my best camera i ever have :3

Those who are asking for a built-in EVF, couldn't quite comprehend what "M" stands for.

So these multi thousand dollar camera has no AF?

What if one wants the subject to be in focus, but everything behind, to be blurred? How does one focus with very bad eyesight?

my dream camera

“Tribute to…” usually means you are out of ideas

Could never afford a Leica but love this interview

If you don’t edit your photos are boring

I believe camera is just the tool that lets a photographer create an image, be it a Leica or a Canon or a Sony, all can create great images in the right hands, but... I was just looking at the sample images in the Leica website and realized 90% of it are crap. Uninteresting photos taken with very expensive cameras. Some people think that horrible photos are interesting or artistic just because a Leica was used, or film or whatever lens or B&W. People, please don't do that. Leica, please select better your photographers, I know there are and there have been legendary Leica users, why not calling them?

Do you still shoot film? What an oooold question, how boring. Just learn and go away.

All the reasons I've moved to and keeping a rangefinder :)

I love the first photograph and his work in general. I wonder if there is any resources you can suggest for the post processing part of the image to have that kind of control and learn how to get something like that look.

This was fascinating. Really appreciate the video and I’d like to hear from peter again now regarding the latest products.

Loved this, thank you

Thank you, Peter. Not only technically informative but, inspirational from a 'creative' point of view. The more one knows about one's tools, the better the application on location. Regards, Ken

Very touching v ideo ... good to see people uniting and creating together in these dark times.

So I can’t connect it to a Samsung?

TO CLAIM ANY SHOT WASNT DONE BEFORE YOU IS ALSO A BIZZARE STANCE...... SHOOTING UP FROM BELOW THINGS IS NOT NEW! ESPECIALLY THE GRATED BRIDGES .... FOUND AT JUST ABOUT EVERY SKI RESORT IN THE WORLD!

What's the sound track you are using for the video? Great video and great sound!

What Leica m camera is he using? thank you in advance.

Excellent story and well worth watching.

I would like to use my MacBook Pro to receive the files instead of my phone. Is this possible? Is there a application or software available to me and my MacBook to make this happen?

Ha Ha!

One of the best videos I have seen on KZbin. I started skating around 1975 and shooting a year later, SoCal. Thanks.

What lens does he pair with the camera ? Is it a 35mm Summilux?

still not clear why it has such a crazy price.

What kind of stick does he hold the camera on? Does anyone have an idea what kind it is?
