I’ve had the X100V for a little while or so – even took it away as my only camera for a week in sunny Spain.

50mm Goodness
As much as I like 28mm and in particular 35mm if I had to choose a single focal length, 50mm would be what I’d choose.
The 50mm focal length is always the real deal.
Paralysis analysis
Digging around the internet for ideas on limiting the gear you have and own, I came across this definition that appears to suit my current thinking to a tee.

A recent few days holiday in beautiful Croatia and just a few images from this beautiful area.

My vanity…knows no boundaries.
…knows no boundaries.
A short while ago I bought a Fujifilm X100v, I think I got influenced from looking at too many social media channels and people singing it’s praises as if it was the only camera any photographer would ever need.
Continue reading “My vanity…”Loving life with a 90mm
For all the other gear I have that’s probably more suited to woodland and landscape photography I love to get out into the woods with my Leica M10-P and a couple of lenses. It feels a much more cathartic experience shooting with a Leica M over the Nikon Z6 I have.

Sometimes it all gets a bit too much and at the moment my seemingly endless quest to find the right camera gear has been giving me a rather painful bout of sensory overload.

All in on Leica?
A little while ago I wrote a blog post about the compromises I make shooting with the Leica M10-P. At the time I have to say I was struggling to justify quite a bit about it for my needs.

A couple of weeks back, we had a little bit of mist in my part of the world along with some pretty cold conditions.

It’s exactly a year since I pushed the button and was lucky enough to buy myself a Leica Summicron 35mm f2 ASPH.

Hanging the Leica M10-P over the shoulder along with the small but excellent Leica Summicron C 40mm f2 makes for a very compact, easy to use set up.

I’ve been shooting and editing to black and white almost exclusively since before Christmas and since the beginning of the New Year I’ve been shooting with a monochrome view through the live view of my camera.

Compromise – At what cost?
After a little over two years of owning my Leica M10-P, the thought process is do I need (well I want) to move it on.

Waiting for the turn
Autumn is almost upon us and most woodland/landscape photographers are waiting for those golden tones that only autumn can offer. That and mist/fog!

Two Years in.
Celebrating two years of Leica M10-P ownership today.

It’s been a pleasure to use, not always practical and for sure doesn’t suit all sorts of photography – but the results never fail to impress and it’s always such fun to shoot with.

Leica for Landscape
A few photos from the past weekend, shooting with just the Leica M10-P & Summicron 40mm f2. It’s a great camera for casual landscape and outdoor photography, the ease of use making it the perfect companion.

Leica Summicron 40mm f2 – perfect when you love 50mm and adore 35mm and can’t decide if you are a 50 or 35mm man!

Since buying both the M10 digital & M6 film bodies, I’ve had a bit of GAS with regards to a Summicron lens.
