jfm Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Summicron 50 (collapsible), one of the great Leica lenses. best, jm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jorn ake Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 A collapsible 50 of some type looks like, and I think the Leica button under the tape & the colors on the shutter speed dial make it an M6. But you know, he isn't a photographer anymore. He draws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan_brown4 Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Maybe he would have kept on shooting if the 0.58 finder was available to make shooting with eye-glasses easier? I wonder if he used the in-camera meter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjarke_vejby Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 Re: "I wonder if he used the in-camera meter?"Does anyone know if HCB in average used his godfeeling or (constant) a lighmeter in the good old III-A-G or M3 days ? In the only book i have, "The man the image and the world", 435 pages, there is nothing mentioned about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majid Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 The catalogue from the Paris retrospective is available in English: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0500542678">http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0500542678</a>. I have the French edition, and showed it to a gallery owner, we both agree it is exceedingly well printed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cd thacker Posted July 3, 2003 Share Posted July 3, 2003 <I>Does anyone know if HCB in average used his godfeeling or (constant) a lighmeter in the good old III-A-G or M3 days?</I><P> In a recent article or interview (not sure just where - Aperture, Newsweek, Pop Photo, Vanity Fair? - he seems to be everywhere lately) it was said that never used a meter, shooting almost always at f/8 and estimating the exposure. Anybody know what his likely ASA was circa the late thirties to early fifties (he shot Ilford film, and presumably still does)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
