    Give Sherry Krauter a call: 845-496-8834.

    She is the best of the best. She has serviced my M cameras over the years and gives top notch service at reasonable prices with quick turnaround times.

    She has a website at http://www.sherrykrauter.com but call her, as she has reliability issues with her email server.

    Your Right!! There is no way to Safely Travel with the Kit. Even though I did (AND SAFELY) with the 30-90 Vario Hood over about 1000 Kilometers. I have no idea what ˆ was Thinking?????

    Thanks, any chance of seeing what it looks like packed? Looking at 24, 35, 70, 120, 180, 30/90 plus S2/grip and whatever else fits…. No opportunity to see one before purchase as I am in NZ, the Ms have their own bag(s) 😉

    Very thick, no folding. All my Lenses. (CS) 120, 180 (with adapter), 45, 70, 30-90 Vario, S with RRS L_Plate Attached, Leica Monochrome, %o Noctilux….basically everything.

    John McMaster replied to the topic Another S Bag Thread :rolleyes: in the forum Leica S (Typ 006) 11 years, 10 months ago

    What lenses did you fit in it? Thinking of the hood on 24mm and 30/90 primarily….

    Does it have a firm base, i.e will not fold in half if a lens is taken out of the middle?

    thanks

    I am working on a project for a B&W book focusing on shoreline. I have 23 images so far, here are four.
    Yes Kipper, is you line up three of these four, you could have a triptych.
    Which do you recommend?

    This is the project that led me to try a T vs S test that is discussed separately.

    I have been shooting a series with the S in B&W on a lake. I might upload a few examples eventually.
    Fellow Leica photographer Gary has been showing me some excellent work with his T, so I decided to do a bit of a test with the two cameras.
    I shot a scene with the T and then tried to duplicate it with the S.
    This is a real world test where I am…[Read more]
