when the MM fullfills what I hope, then it will be a second body for traveling and for nude art photos.

Mirror Up and 2 Second Delay…..

With Auto in EB one gets a 2 second delay with the first exposure and then two rapid exposure without Mirror Up….

Non auto allows one to get all three with the delay….

I should have written Auto in EB gets first exposure with the mirror up/2 second delay…[Read more]

And this is the reason that I don't care much about S3 as I think I'm still not utilized S2 enough. However, it will make more sense if S3 can make some improvement in high ISO + a little high bursting. In addition, I'm really looking forward to wireless shutter provided by Leica.

It will fit in the same field case as the M9, one for color the other for monochrome.

The M-M will become my main camera, my M9 will supplement it for family, landscape and such. I does mean I can semi-retire my M7, for use with special projects. The M-M does not replace Tri-X, but it sure can make my stock of film last i long time.

Dear Jack

Thanks for your encouragement, I have posted one old picture, from Sep 2010 at the Image to share post. I'm not professional, therefore, i will have only limited time to take pictures during these few years. When you have time in the past, you have no wealth to buy Leica. Now you can buy Leica but you have not enough time to enjoy…[Read more]

Welcome Veeracha,

Your perspective is much appreciated on this forum.
And I would enjoy seeing some photos from Thailand when you can post them.

So it appears that your most desired feature was for a new Leica agent to be appointed in Thailand and it appears you got your desire. Anything else in an S3?

Jack

Dear Jack MacD

At least, there's another one from Thailand. I bought S2 since 2010 and still enjoy shooting it. We have a lot of photographers in Thailand but the problem with Leica camera here was the agent. Apparently, there's changes in agent during 2010-2011 and it made Leica fans a little back off, including the shortage of inventory.…[Read more]

Update,

Since actually getting the H to S adapter and using it with H lenses on a number of assignments as well as some personal work … I'm even more happy with the S2 as is.

However, that POV is tainted by being a H4D/60 user with a full compliment of H lenses. I have the 100mm portrait lens some wish for … and it is the fastest…[Read more]

Any chance to join your boat crew? :D. Just kidding. Looks like you had a great day at the beach.

I also like the B&W shot best. What lens was the done with?

Georg

Very nice shots . I can see you have been keeping busy in the off season . cool:

Thanks guys…glad you liked them.

Al, it's tough to beat the Leica glass but there are some alternative lenses out there worth shooting with if you're willing to do a bit of extra work and forego the convenience of AF. I've got the Hassy 110/2 and just reacquired the 50/2.8 after testing it out. Kurt already knows this and has been doing…[Read more]

These are from Thailand….that elephant shot (in front of 7-11) was shot on xp-2, everything else was Kodak Pro Image 100….

cheers, michael

My experience as well. Singh Ray is a great company and Ray Singh a true gentleman
