Have had a M6 since 1996 and a Summilx 35 mm 1.4. Love it. You can always find love mine. Will never ever ever replace it for ANY OTHER CAMERA IN THE

Snap! We are on the same page! My three cameras are a Leica M6, a Rollei 35S and a FujiX100V! I love them all. Sometimes the Summicron 35mm sharpness is too sharp but mostly it is perfect. The Rollei is great for grain and mood shots and I keep it in my jacket pocket so I have got shots when the M6 is not with me. I mostly zone focus with both film cameras. Cheers.

Great video! I'm hoping to buy a M6 very soon as well!

How do you compare the M6 vid the M240?

[taehanyoun]

I would love to buy M6 but here in S.Korea we have HUGE price bump ever since one of the BTS members showed up with it...😭 already was expensive, now it is humongous

[Biosynchro]

The prices are kind of insane these days. If I wanted one I would just spend the extra money for a brand new M-P or M-A. I had an M6 (and an M2 and an M4-2) and I should have never sold them. Ah well...

It is not the camera that "renders the image." It is the lens and film used with the camera that does so. Now, with digital cameras it is a very different story.

I bought the Q2 so wont buy any more lenses, after one year i got the M9 and m10-p and 3 leica lenses 🤣

It’s a gorgeous camera but very expensive.

[Holl.Mvrk.]

Currently I’m content with my canon p. But I feel that’ll change soon. 🤣

[gurugamer]

I don’t see the point of shooting film in 2022. It’s very expensive to buy and process film and on top of that you still use a scanner or a camera to take a picture of the negative to digitise it. Why are there so many film photographers in 2022, they still scanning making it a digital camera. What you think?

Hi great vid. I've always be interested but being long sighted what do I do without a diopter?

[jasongold]

The results of film, well done and well scanned is very different from Digital. Don't compare. Strangely shooting film, I remember most exposures! Digital very few! Colour becomes horribly expensive with film..

[gabrieldiazco]

I'm pretty sure the maximum 1/1000 shutter speed is due to physics. Can't get any faster than that with that type of shutter.

Why i shot film?
Film photos are much better than digital ones. The colors, the grain, the mood, the natural look and the actual print of the photo unlike the digital photo that remains usually only on the hard disk and got forgotten or lost within time.

Film: think, feel, observe, create, dream, hope, soul, deep, patient, adventurous, in the scene, attentive, walk around for the right perspective and then press the button in the right moment.
Digital: in a rush, no time, distracted, machine gunner, camera screeny, quantity instead or quality, soulless, superficial and with impatience miss the right moment and shot.
Film is real, digital is fake.
