Snowballs in Paris
I was scanning a couple of slides to make prints for friends when I came across this. I'm sure it must have been posted before, but I'm not sure. Paris in early 2003. There'd been some snow and the kids were taking full advantage of it on the Pont des Arts. I'm pretty sure the film was Provia,...

M8 in greenland &^%%(
After just 5 days in greenland, whe had a pretty heavy storm with lots of rain. For safety I put the M8 inside my backpack, rather than in the camera case outside.

Aperture ring on M lenses made in Canada
I own three Summicrons: 35 mm (Canada), 50 mm (Germany) and 90 mm (Canada). The white dot on the aperture ring on both Canadian lenses is off-centre and does not align with the center of the depth-of-field scale. In both cases, the white dot is on the side of the lens barrel, i.e. the side of the...

Who Uses a Tripod?
I was following the discussion about tripods and it made me wonder, "Who uses a tripod with an M8?" It seems to me that if an M8 is a "reportage camera", a tripod defeats the purpose. You aren't exactly stealth when you set up a tripod. So, who uses a tripod and what do you use it for? What...

M8 & M9
Has anyone considered this scenario: A new M9 or other DR w/ a m-mount , would (hopefully) not have the UV/IR issue that the current M8 has. Hence no need for that filter. The consequence, you can guess is , if you had both (M8 & M9) you would have to unscrew the filter if you were changing bodies....

An unedifying experience and a realisation
Now, before I start, I should point out that this is not a Voigtlander-bashing thread. I think they make some splendid lenses, and have revitalised the rangefinder market. But. Some of you will remember that I dipped my toe into the RF-digital waters with an RD-1s. I kept it a few months then...

Micro 4/3 an alternative to digital M?
The newly announced Micro Four Thirds standard, and its lack of a mirror box, sounds just like the ticket to build a 4/3 sensor RF camera, besides one that uses an EVF or Live View to focus. The new system will have 4/3 to Micro 4/3 adapters, and sounds just like it could be a very good way of...

Some MATE thoughts
I've shot with Canon dslr's and slr's for years and have always disliked shooting with zooms. The main reasons that I bought an M8 was because I almost exclusively shot in manual focus, I really grew to hate the bulk of a Canon system and I always shot with a fixed focal length. That said, the MATE...
