Wow the photos are amazing! Are they post edited at all? Just wondering.

what VND do you use?

Some great photo's Jake!

Thank you for speaking on confidence, the innocence that comes with passion and the importance of figuring out your own footing ❤️‍🔥

Great video ❤ did you test the Tamron 35-150?

lightmeters expose for middle gray, your pictures came underexposed because you metered for snow and for the white dog, so the camera wanted to make the dog and snow gray. you have to compensate for that. i think theres a section about that in every film cameras manual, even in the leicas manual

What is the device you are holding in the beginning?

Sell them online for 5ea. You’ll make money back 20x

Awesome video! About to buy my first Leica (M6). Also, hate to be this person, but you spelt Leica wrong on the parts where show the photos 😅

You're my saviour. Thank you.

Can you use a mirrorless instead of a dslr?

fabulous photography! Dusted off the xpan from 24 years ago. Need a 2.0 Diopter? Any leads please? Thank you

I've had the incredible luck to take pictures of my two favorite bands already: Blackout Problems 3x (alternative rock, super energetic shows, singer loves to run and climb all around the venue lol), and Enter Shikari once (alt-rock too, insane light-show and visuals, crazy pits), where I won a raffle for a photo-pass last year, and I hope I'll get to shoot for both of them again. 🤞🏻 My utopic daydream is to photograph BTS or another big (=many members) K-Pop group someday, because they usually have shows with big productions, lots of dancers and choreography, many different outfits, detailed stage sets/props, the fans often have lightsticks that interact with the music.... so it provides a lot of interesting and stunning visuals.

I just brought the Q3 43 and am loving it. I had the Q2 but didn’t like the 28mm focal length. Too wide for me. The 43 is more of my vibe. I love that it requires minimal editing afterwards. Did you edit these photos much?

straight to the point, thanks mate!

Dude you nail focus every time!! love these pics

hold up! image 2:02 is actually an insane image! The contrast of light to dark and pink and blues is phenomenal

Great images !!!!

pretty crappy photos but i love the leica

I love the experience of the rangefinder, compared with the digital sensor

Hi, any chance to know the aperture and shutter speeds on some of the photos.

Hi. Are the photos we see edited or just a scan of the print. I’m a beginner with the M6.

Bro I felt pairing the ”all I want for Christmas is you” song with the M3 lol

ok so talk about it💀

I appreciate your comment about hearing all of the shutters in rapid fire and you taking one shot per wave. In my university years in the 90s I found myself in the unique position to work with our yearbook and was given a press pass to any sporting event. I would go to all of the home games and learned how to predict the plays and in some cases out maneuvered the professional press photogs. I was amazed how these photogs would shoot an entire roll of film on one play and I was taking one well aimed shot with a lens on manual focus (because my kit lens wasn't fast enough). I learned so much from that experience. I eventually picked up a Mamiya c330 and did portrait work for a few years before my regular career became too much to balance. I always did admire the Mamiya 7ii on the BHPhoto website. :)

The main reason to invest in a digital Leica M is that one can learn to use it within an hour; whereas say high-end Nikons and Cannons are so over saturated with features to the point where they take many months to learn to use. Secondly, Leica Ms are considerably smaller and lighter than say a Nikon Z8, as are the lenses thus allowing one to be discrete.

A7iv or fx30??

i bought the Q3 last week and so far i am loving it

M11 is more work for nothing basically. Range finder cameras are dated for a reason. You need to constantly manual focus your shots for no extra benefits than stroking your own ego

I believe Fujifilm made the Hasselblad Xpan camera and lens. And the camera is not exactly as robust as say a Leica camera.

Was this filmed on a helios?? I've been looking at this lens for my FX3

This is a beautiful reminder to shoot the small stuff too. Thank you

I used to think that pano format like Xpan is gimmickish. Eventually I realised it's not absolutely true. Using a normal wide angle lens (like 28mm and shorter) increases your field of view both vertically and horizontally, which increases the risk of putting more unwanted elements in your framing. So, you need frame carefully. On the other side, pano format is only wider horizontally, so your composition is cleaner. I'd say xpan is a like a scalpel. Limited, but very sharp.

Hey, does the peak design strap damage the top sides of the m11? It kinda seems too close to the

I’ll take the M11, sell it, get a Q3 and a car.

Nice vid / photos - thanks

Leica mp.

2500 dollars from 2015 are worth more than 3200 in 2024. You can surely get one for that money today. So, the price has remained about the same since its discontinuation

I have a Q2 so I’m in for the M11

Any sample images?

Great pics !!

would of been great if you showed yourself posting it on twitter to prove it actually worked.

I got my M8 in March, but love the thought of a Q, might replace it with one.

Cool, what kind of disposable camera did u use? Impressed by the colors and the greenish higlights tho. That look looks very similar color to disposable one. Dope!

You left out the fact that the Q3 is stabilized, which is a biggie.

Would you ever consider a Sony FX6 for your concert work or would that be too much?

I prefer the Pentax espio 928. It’s 28 mm and it’s faster lens f3.5. PS cameras starting at 38 mm is not wide enough for me. I also got a remote control for it and it’s handy for tripod shooting.

Will it leave residue? Wondering

Im in PDX took, I shoot a sony A1 with a 40mm batis, and am debating going leica q3 or used Q2 Monochrom, what would you do?

The photos are great!
