New covering from aki-asahi. Went on well and fit good too. So much better looking than the original shark skin.

Nice ! Is that a Lunasix Pro (Lunasix 3) ?

Luna Pro S - but I think that's the same thing, just a different name? This one does take modern silver oxide batteries though.

Oh, and here's another closeup to stay on topic :D

I've got a Jupiter 8 50/2. A quite nice sample, but I think I'll get something better in the long run. Next lens will probably be something wide though, right now I'm using a borrowed Voigtländer 21mm and it's a ton of fun...

"Say hello to my little friend"...

My new-to-me MP3, out and about in San Francisco today.

Delicious!

Very nice camera indeed!

Thanks Menos! I've wanted one since the day they were announced. I need it like a hole in the head but I'm really pleased so far :)

Just got this baby home. My first film- and rangefinder camera :)

Welcome to the RF forum Malkovic! Have fun with your new beauty and don't forget to post some pictures you are taking with it ;)

Welcome Malkovic - is that as in one of my all time favorite actors Malkovic?

Congrats and welcome to RFF

BP M4 , M6 Millennium together with my Screwmount IIIG with leciavit. Loving it!!!





Taken on my new street PnS. Ricoh GRDIII

can one ever own enough auxiliary viewfinders and other shoemount gizmos?




M2 is wearing a CV II Meter and Tewes VF, both on a CV double shoe adapter, with a Summitar and nifty barndoor hood and the famous Mr. Soft Release (RIP, Mr. B) ... the IIIf has a Summaron with hood (appropriately dented and dinged) and a 35 Canon VF. The M8 has a Canon 50/1.4 with matching hood and, for no practical reason whatsoever, a Kobalux 21 and CV 15 VF (both on a Thumbs Up double shoe).

Completely silly.

some old finders have shoes on top of them- I think one of the Leica zoom ones and the '60s Zeiss Ikon 21mm finder have them. that would be fun to stack finders with... or two double shoes...

I know, I know.... but probably not a good idea to give me any ideas or encouragement here. Best that I stop before I shop again. Though, my wife, noticing the barndoor hood earlier today said, "that looks cool." A comment that was thankfully not followed by any questions about what it cost (it was cheap).

Haha, good Idea, I'll try stacking my Leica Meter MR-4 on top of my VIOOH finder :p

BTW, ZoomP, beautiful M4.

Lovely Setup! Is that the original hood? or a third party?

My simple setup: M6 Classic, 50 Lux (E46 Black Paint), Zhou case, Gordy Strap, Sekonic L-308S, Acros, and Tri-X.

still in love...

Thanks!! Read about your rare find! Congrats!!!

MP + M4-P

Summilux ver2 + 35 1.4 Nokton

Thanks. It's a pretty rig, for sure. That's the original Zeiss hood. I believe there is a rectangular option as well.

Not sure what you're commenting on, since you didn't quote, but since it directly follows my answer to a hood question about my camera, I'll assume it's regarding my camera.

It's a Zeiss hood. It's a Voigtlander finder, however. :rolleyes:

Just feeling good.

Here is my M6 Classic. Well, was my M6 Classic. I recently sold it to a fellow forum member and am going throigh major withdraws being Leicaless. I'm on the hunt for a BPMP, so hopefully it won't be long.

I've been taking more photos of my MP than with it lately.
This must stop.

But at least you're taking photos :D

M7 and Elmar-m50 Leicavit BP

the new baby arrived today!
 

It's a Nokton f/1.1!


Leica M3 and Nokton 50 f/1.1 by Str@vinsky, on Flickr

New to me M6 Classic with my favourite lens, the Zeiss ZM Planar 50mm f2:

Nice. I have the M3 with that lens also and it's wonderful. What strap is that? Looks nice.

Yes, I can't wait to test it.
The strap is a Gordy in russet brown and white thread, custom made at 130 cm. Got it yesterday in the mail.

It's here, it's here :D
What a nice camera! The frustration is, the Leitz adapter I bought from the net didn't arrived yet and I don't have any M lens to put on it :bang:

What a beauty. One super small ding on the top and a small dent on the door. Looks like the curtain is like new, all speeds are correct, viewfinder is veeeery bright :) Will shoot the hell out of it once I put a lens on.
Sorry for the crappy photos I made with my cell...

My new Noctilux f/1.2, it look so similar to my transition model summilux 50mm!

Just got back my M4-P today from Youxin. He did a brilliant job. Now I have it paired with a newly bought 2nd-hand CV Ultron 28/1.9 (from last Saturday's Matsuya Ginza camera show).

Also seen here is the 28/3.5 Skopar sporting the LH-1 hood.

My first Leica... :)

sweet gear......
