    W/NW 2023 Pic-O'-The-Week #34

    in Leica and Rangefinders

    Posted

    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.

    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.

    Welcome everyone to Week 25 of 2023, the Leica and Rangefinders W/NW Thread! Here's a scene of the USS Constitution, being cast off on one of its six annual at-sea excursions in Boston, the oldest commissioned ship in the US Navy.

    I am curious. What part of the shooting experience do you find joyful?

    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.
