Leica Zooms vs Primes: Which is right for you?
In this video, Leica specialist and workshop guide Colin McKinley explains the differences between Leica zooms and prime lenses, breaking down when and where each makes the most sense. From a windy mountaintop in the Rockies for environmental portraiture to live concert photography in a rocking nightclub in downtown Denver, Colin breaks out his selection of Leica glass to demonstrate real-world applications for zooms versus primes.
It's not about which lens is best — it's about which actually makes sense for the way you shoot.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Show Us Your Leica Kit - Round 4
Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas are taking a break from their usual role of show and tell. Instead, for this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk, we're asking viewers to show us their own Leica kits. The guys will comment and react, offering up suggestions for adding to, paring down or making changes based on each setup. Or, maybe just gush over some unique camera or lens that they wish they had.
Submissions before the show are welcome, as are ones during the livestream .
How to Submit
=======================
Submissions are welcome before the livestream.
Briefly tell us about your kit, what kind of photography you're into, any challenges you're having or goals you want to achieve, and maybe some changes you're thinking about making.
Make sure to include a high resolution picture of your Leica kit - whether it’s a camera-in-hand shot of your favorite single-lens setup or a lay flat of your entire kit with accessories, snacks and all.
Images should be in JPEG format and at least 2000 x 3000px, or 6MP. If pictures are too low resolution, we can't use them. Remember, we broadcast in full 4K so we need all those glorious pixels.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Leica 35mm f/1.2 ASPH Noctilux Episode
Join Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas for this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk as they take an in-depth look at the groundbreaking, newly released Noctilux-M 35mm f/1.2 ASPH. Only slightly larger than the 35mm Summilux, delivering optical performance approaching the 35mm APO-Summicron, and featuring the fastest aperture ever offered on a 35mm M lens, the new 35mm Noctilux brings unmistakable Noctilux magic in a highly usable package.
They’ll give a brief history of Noctilux lenses, discuss the technological innovations behind this high-speed reference-class optic, and explain where it fits within the current Leica M lineup. Naturally, Josh and David will explore how the new lens stacks up against the latest 35mm Summilux-M FLE and 35mm APO-Summicron-M, with their usual battery of detailed testing.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Leica Viewfinder Episode
Join Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas for this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk as they explore one of the most fundamental aspects of the Leica shooting experience: the viewfinder.
They'll examine how different viewfinder types influence the way photographers see, compose, and focus. From the iconic optical rangefinder of the M11 to the high-resolution electronic viewfinders in the SL3, Q3 and new M EV1, they'll discuss the strengths and limitations of each approach within the Leica lineup. Comparing viewfinders across Leica M, SL, and Q cameras, they'll show how tools such as focus peaking, focus magnification, highlight warning, histogram, grids and exposure preview, affect the shooting experience and success in the field, and when they can be a distraction.
This episode includes direct video captured through the various viewfinders, giving viewers a clear sense of what the photographer actually sees while working. Whether someone prefers a traditional optical experience or relies on modern electronic aids, this episode offers practical insight into how viewfinder design and functionality shape real-world shooting.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Leica M EV1
Join Josh Lehrer and David Farkas for this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk as they explore the new Leica M EV1. Marking the first time an M camera has featured an integrated electronic viewfinder rather than an optical rangefinder, the M EV1 represents a true evolution of the classic M concept. It blends the mechanical simplicity and familiar feel that M photographers love with the flexibility and precision of a modern, integrated live view experience.
We’ll dig into the M EV1’s design philosophy, electronic viewfinder experience, menu system, handling, and performance, as well as how it fits alongside the M11 family. We’ll also cover lens compatibility, behavior with legacy glass, focusing aids, image quality, and how it stacks up against a traditional M rangefinder.
Plus, we’ll compare the M EV1 to the SL3, Q3, and classic M bodies to help you understand who this camera is for — and who it isn’t — and share our early impressions from real-world use.
Have questions about the Leica M EV1 or anything Leica? Email us ahead of time at questions@reddotforum.com, or ask live in the chat during the show.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Leica Myths and Legends
Join Josh Lehrer and David Farkas for a special episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk as we tackle Leica Myths and Legends. From Oskar Barnack and the birth of 35mm still photography, to Life Magazine photojournalists and Cold War spy cameras, we’ll separate fact from fiction and uncover the stories that shaped Leica’s legacy.

We'll discuss the stories behind iconic gear like the M4-2, M9, Monochrom, Q, and SL. Along the way, we’ll highlight the people who saved Leica, from Ernst Leitz II to Dr. Andreas Kaufmann, and celebrate the cameras and lenses that became legends.

Why I Use Auto ISO on Leica Cameras (and Why You Should Too)
In this video, Leica Specialist Colin McKinley explains how to customize the Auto-ISO settings on your Leica camera to streamline your photographic process. As ISO performance has improved dramatically in recent years, Auto-ISO has become an essential part of the pro photographer’s toolkit. By allowing the camera to make the same decisions you would already be making, it frees you up to spend more time focusing on capturing the moment.
