The M6 and M7 were with me all the time many years ago. Shooting film is where I started with Leica. It only shoots RAW, so each shot has to be processed but I enjoy this process, much like I used to love developing my film in my Laundry room.”ĬLICK IMAGES FOR LARGER AND MUCH NICER VERSIONS! All images here shot with the Voigtlander 50 f/1.2 on the new M10-D Lift up, look through the eyepiece/RF, focus, and shoot. Somehow, when I take this camera out I truly feel as if I am shooting with my old M7 from back in the day. In fact, I have not bonded with an M so tightly, ever. “Many think it is insane to buy or use a camera without any way to check your shots, but I have found it liberating and even many months after my review I still use this M, and I love it. In the review for the unique Leica 28 Summaron lens, I used the M-D and had this to say about the experience: I found a quote I made back then that sums up what I think about this concept of the M-D. (Thank you Ken)Ī video look at the M10-D, watch it below!īefore I get started with my thoughts on this new Leica, the M10-D, I was just re-reading an old lens review. Ken is a Leica dealer and long time site sponsor here who helped me get this site off the ground 11 years ago! Great guy and Leica dealer. I owned that M-D for a while, thanks to Ken Hansen. At least the digital equivalent and as close as you could get to that experience, which if I can say, is MUCH different from just shooting a digital camera like a Sony A7III. It took those who owned one and shot with it way “back to the basics” and gave the experience of an analog Leica M6 or M7. Order the M10-D from Ken Hansen ( or or B&H PHOTOīack in August of 2016 I reviewed the Leica MD (Typ 262), the first digital rangefinder camera ever made without a rear LCD screen.
