I like that there are three controls: Focus, aperture, shutter speed.
Full automation is great but after a while it becomes tedious. Chimp,
see what the camera is doing, decide if I need exposure comp, make
sure the camera is focusing on

Too true, and a philosophy that's applicable to many other areas of life.

I like all three. Good shots and a classic feel to them. :-)
Of the three, this one is the one I'd suggest a minor edit: just pull

Thanks Frank. Had a good time shooting film. And I gave the old Leica a bit of
exercise. I have an equally old Agfa folder that is also in need of a workout.

Thanks. I'll take a second look at the blacks.
The lens is the Summicron 50/2 Collapsible. It's in very nice shape, aside form
the aperture being a bit stiff. With frequent use it loosens up. Certainly one
of the best LTM lenses. I also have the Summaron 35/3.5, while not quite the

I believe what Frank is saying is that an older film camera without meters,
autofocus or other electronic embellishments is in itself simple and
straightforward. The function of the machine is rewarding. Using it correctly
is not necessarily easy, but that's part of the fun as well. I take

Nice collection of shots, Paul. This one is my favorite. There's
