carson wilson Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 <center> Because nearly all of the information I've found on the Web about the Leica CM has been of an incidental nature, I'm launching a <B>new Web page<B> dedicated research information on this interesting camera at: <br /> <br /> <A HREF=http://lcm.carsonwilson.com>lcm.carsonwilson.com</a> <br /> <br /> From the introduction: <br /> <br /> <B><I>"The Leica CM is a compact 35mm film camera, produced by Leica Camera AG since February 2004. It features autofocus, dual mode auto exposure, center-weighted metering, a fixed focal length retractable lens, built-in flash, and motorized film advance. Lacking interchangeable lenses, manual rangefinder, split screen focus, or manual film advance, to some it's not a "real Leica." However, with high grade optics and manual control over focus and aperture, it's not a typical point and shoot either. So, the CM is either the poor man's Leica, or the rich man's point and shoot. I've not found much information on the web about this camera beside scattered user comments and Leica's promotional materials. Therefore, this page aims to describe and explain this little camera that defies easy categorization. I hope to provide you with clear information about this unusual camera so that you can better assess its value.</b></i> <br /> <br /> Enjoy! </center> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pensacolaphoto Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Nicely done, Carson. I use a Leica CL, but I don't think of its shutter noise level as low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jtk Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Nice work. Olympus and CM sound like electric tooth brushes, CL like a dropped bowling ball and Nikon's disgusting, like someone hacking and spitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_simmons Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Trevor, that's a beautiful shot. What scanner and software do you use, or is that a scan of a beautifully crafted print? BTW, I like the dainty shutter sound of the CL, but not nearly as much as the virile clunk of the Leicaflex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
