    I bought a used M 240 just before Christmas. I updated the firmware to the latest today and suddenly all my exposures were underexposed. I checked the settings and found that the exposure compensation had been set to the negative end of the scale. Reset that to switch exposure compensation off and exposures are now correct.

    I'm incredibly stoked right now! I had the opportunity to pick up a new Leica MP in black paint variation & I went ahead and capitalized on that. Hate to think of what I owe on it but I do believe that with the acquisition of this camera I'll be in good position to begin getting rid of my older gear. That, and I won't have to worry upon arrival if…[Read more]

    Tibetan dwellings are very distinctive. The bunker houses in the valleys of southern Tibet, the tents in the pastoral areas of northern Tibet, and the wooden buildings in the forest area of the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin have their own characteristics. While paying attention to cold, wind, and earthquake protection, Tibetan dwellings also adopt…[Read more]

    I'm Really debating at the moment which lens to get. I'm getting the 50mm Summilux but fortunately the 50mm sum micron is going back to help offset that little endeavor. Particularly, I'm struggling trying to figure out if I should go with the 90mm /f4 Macro or the 135mm f/3.4 APO? I want to take a step into the longer range lenses now that I've…[Read more]

    Tibet is a place with deep ties to Buddha. When you come to Lhasa, in addition to the Potala Palace, there are several temples that you must visit. The Sera Monastery and Drepung Monastery in Lhasa are worth our time to walk slowly.
