| Digital Leica M8 / M8.2 / M9 / M-E /Mono / M10 aka "M" Discussions about the Leica M8 /M 8.2 / M9 / M9-P/ M-E / M Monochrom / M10 aka "M": Leica digital M mount rangefinder cameras. Naming the new digital M the "Leica M" is VERY unfortunate as it will only confuse newbies with other Leica M cameras of the the past. Happily there is room for confusion with only the past 59 years of Leica M production ... since Leica introduced the Leica M system in 1953. All Hail for the Leica Marketing Department learning Leica M history! |

Thanks
Thanks for responding aperture64, and yes it was what caught my eye here but I chose the version with closer focus because the color and form of the mural were so vivid.....nor do I have f64 on the Leica lenses

Ever since I was a kid I have loved the fish ladder at the locks.
It's a tough place to make a photograph. No flash allowed and pretty dark overall. A great place to take out of towner folks.

I walk around the Ballard Locks quite a bit, it is a great place all four seasons of the year. It was a spectacular summer the salmon runs have been large and long running. Those two were taken yesterday since I am working night shifts for a month and it was nice to be out and about during a weekday.
For the two shots above just set the aperture to wide open, f3.8, the M9 to AE and held the M9 tight against the railing on the level above the observation deck.

Luscious color! I have no doubt that someday we'll look back on these as fondly as we now do Kodachromes. Unique and wonderful. The B&W is pretty special as well.

Great thread idea. Still loving mine. Chrome M9-P: it's like I have a digital M2. Love the colours. This is the 35 C Biogon at 800 ISO, by accident.

Also ISO 800, 25 Color Skopar, 1/15s.

Thanks very much Icebear. I've enjoyed your shots lately too, that mural above and those great night shots at 1250 and even 1600 in colour.
This is back to ISO 160, 35 C Biogon again.

It balances well. The Zeiss colour suits film very well - I was using Superia 200 a lot, and I really like the colours from the Zeiss lenses on the M9.
Black and white with the M9 is great too...ZM C Biogon 21:
