  1. Many thanks to Bill for covering the Leica/RF W/NW this week! The reason for my absence was a trip to Bermuda, exploring a few of the many excellent visual sights this lovely island has to offer. So for starters, here a scene of the famous Swizzle Inn, home of Bermuda's trademark rum cocktail. Leica Q (116), 28mm f/1.7 Summilux

  3. Less of a landscape, more of a skyscape... during the Perseid Meteor Shower, the morning of August 13th.

  12. Not a bad price for a Q116, about what I paid for mine but I did get the box and accessories. Amazing M8s are still selling for those prices.
  13. Welcome everyone to Week 27 of 2023, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! I can't believe we're past the halfway point of 2023 already. Here's a scene from the Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, Concord, Massachusetts. Leica Q (116), 28mm f/1.7 Summilux (at 28mm).

  17. My mechanical Leicas are a II, the IIIg, and an M6 (classic). The IIIg is the smoothest and quietest of the bunch, in terms of shutter operation and film advance. I like the viewfinder's framelines, a kind of "hybrid" between the Barnacks and the M series. The (subjective, of course) feel of solidity and precision, for me, outranks the others that either I have or have used.
  18. My inherited IIIg that my Mom bought new in 1957... a joy to shoot with.

  22. Thanks Sanford. Broadway in Nashville is just the place to do that, it was happening right then!
  23. I actually took this in March of 2020 just before the pandemic went into full swing. I think that marquis board (1997) actually refers to the beginning of that establishment, but I'm not sure.
