    Fun with the Leica M Monochrom

    So, I'm a bit out of date. Comes from living on the "other island".

    Fun with the Ricoh GR III

    Thanks for the info, Tony. That looks interesting and not too bulky or cumbersome. Alas, I checked the website, and they no longer deliver to the UK; the never-ending joy of Brexit. I might be able to get one delivered to Dublin, in the Republic, though. Robert

    Fun with the Ricoh GR III

    Thanks for the comparisons between 28mm and 40mm, Carl. I prefer the 40mm ones, for me it makes the "focal point" more obvious. I found 28mm was just too wide. Back in the day, I had a Minox 35EL with a 35mm lens; I could (and did) take it everywhere. This Ricoh looks like the digital...

    Fun with the Ricoh GR III

    Carl, how do you find the difference between 28mm (equiv) and 40mm (equiv)? Is one more "natural" to your vision?

    Fun with the Leica M Monochrom

    The sundial on the right is quite conventional, but I don't think I've ever seen one quite like the one on the left with the strange angle of the gnomon.

    Fun With the Leica CL

    55-135 Apo zoom at 135mm, 1/125, f/4.5, ISO 200, cropped There are a couple of small trees overlooking the birdy feeder. This is one of the four robins watching out for an opportunity. I can't take any credit/blame for this. Son #2 was holding the camera and pressed the release. I was trying to...

    Strange light today in Lauerz, Switzerland

    Heidi in the novel said when she saw it that "the mountains are on fire".

    Ah yes, the difference between a route march and a wee dander! 😁

    The new Leica Q2 Monochrom

    Your review makes a good pair with Sean Reid's. I hope you get another Q2M when the plague has passed, or at least lessened sufficiently, so we can see more of what it can achieve in practice; clock faces are all very well, but I prefer to look at real-world images.

    Getting the best B&W rendering from digital.

    Comments to the effect that, "I can't get my digital images to look like analogue (film emulsion) ones" are common enough, expressing frustration. I don't remember seeing, "I can't get my emulsion images to look like digital ones". No doubt someone will correct me, but still.

    Help needed please.

    If your problem, or worry, is that one camera will fail, then why not have a second body of the same type? They need not be identical but should be able to use all the lenses. That would mean carrying 2 bodies and the lenses you prefer. If one body fails, you still have a back-up. That would be...

    Help needed please.

    "I travel a lot...overseas destinations." You are lucky to be able to do that these days. However, what is the purpose of this travel? Is it primarily for business, or primarily for photography (and leisure)? Secondly, while you have two camera systems, why do you need both? (I plead ignorance...
