ken_chi Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Well, just how much do you think you're obsessed with your LEICA? Here is one case. (excuse the poor scan, it is doing weird things (lines) to my photos... Shot on new Agfa Ultra 100, 35mmASPHcron, cropped obviously...)<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkie Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Actualli I thought the photo was going to be of a fan with about 10 leicas around his neck, wearing the leica logo on his face, painted in red zinc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcg Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 You need to remember that for most people, Leica is a name associated with high end orthophoto equipment, GIS / GPS units and 3D scanners. It's little different as an international corporation than Compaq, IBM or Verizon, all of whom hand out tee shirts left & right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael_kastner Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 I too have never seen any Leica car here, either, not even in Solms or in Wetzlar. Is there even one single Leica store in Malta or Gozo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_a. Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Not sure but my wife forbid me to look for one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_brown4 Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 My Lieica bumper sticker (7" x 31" with red dot and "LEICA') shipped from Henry's yesterday. Not sure where I'm going to put it, but I am pretty sure it makes me a big fan :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giles_poilu Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 How about these people? - surely they are "taking the biscuit", or should I say "having their cake and eating it!" - scanned from "Leica Bulletin":<p><center> <img src="http://www.monpoilu.icom43.net/cake.JPG"> </center><p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lee_shively Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 So, when do you think we'll start to see tatoos like the "Harley ****ing Davidson" ones that say "Leitz ****ing Camera"??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_l_ck Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 I love my family and I like to photograph with my Leicas. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ray . Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Giles, Where do I get a cake like that?... Guess I could take the picture to my local bakery, or leave my Leica with them... ha ha. BTW, how did that bald guy get that (apparently) good looking wife?... Must be because he's a Leica photographer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_Es Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 This is fun, If the guy with the read T-shirt was a real Leica M fan he would have put black tap over the "Leica" logo. Cheers, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_brown4 Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 Giles, love the shot and article, these folks have great taste in lenses too. 35 'cron ASPH all the way baby!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_kastner Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 The knife! IT'S THE KNIFE!! Who needs black tape to cover over the red Leica dot when you can wedge it off with a 2ft. knife? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsbc Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 The cake-camera looks a bit oblong to and some folks argue that the additional 2mm height of the M6 TTL completely ruins the classical lines. Imagine how flat the cake would have look like had the couple opt for the classic M3... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Smith Posted December 9, 2002 Share Posted December 9, 2002 Re Leica car in Malta It's probably Leica Microsystems. Even the Maltese have microscopes... Robin Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
