Artisan & Artist LMB-M7 Half Case Review:
I’ve been using my Leica M6 TTL Millennium a lot more lately because while I love digital, film slows me down a bit. It’s a nice change, and in that way it compliments digital. Of course, using my M6 also means that I’ve been looking for more accessories for it :). One accessory I’ve been considering for quite a while now is getting a half case for my M6. The problem is that there are tons to choose from nowadays. There are some pretty bad ones but also some great ones. One that I’ve had my eye on for a while is the Artisan & Artist LMB-M7, and I thought it would be a great idea to get one in and review it. [continue reading…]
Film Friday: More With Fuji Pro 400H:
I know I missed a couple of Fridays posting film. It’s been a very busy summer but as I said in my first Film Friday post, I plan to make Film Friday a permanent fixture here. So, with that said, today I have just a few pics from late May taken with my Leica M6 TTL Millennium and Fuji Pro 400H. The lens I used was my trusty 50mm Summicron-M. I’ve been using the 50 Cron a lot with the M6 lately. To me, it’s a really good match. [continue reading…]
Images From The Sony a6300 And a Trip to London:
I’m leaving to London in a few hours, so I won’t be here for a while. However, my site will be regularly updated while I’m away, and I will still respond to comments and emails. It just may take me a little bit longer than usual ;). As for my trip, it is just a vacation but I won’t be going empty handed. I was originally hoping to get the Sigma sd Quattro for this trip because I really wanted to review it. I’ve always been intrigued by Sigma’s, shall we say, unique cameras, and I thought the new sd Quattro would be a great way to find out more about their gear but it just won’t make it in time. So, seeing as I’ve been wanting to try the Sony a6300 for quite a while now, I decided to make a request for it, and take it along with a few lenses. So, expect reviews of the Sony gear when I come back. [continue reading…]
ONA Berlin II Camera Bag Review:
I’m always on the lookout for new bags, and since I’ve pretty much reviewed most of the everyday small kit bags from Billingham, I thought I’d try something different this time. I’ve heard good things about ONA bags, and being that I’m a Leica shooter, I thought it would be great to take a closer look at the Berlin II. After all, this bag was specifically designed for the M system according to ONA. In fact, it was created to celebrate the 100 years of Leica photography. So, how does it actually measure up? Read on and find out! [continue reading…]
Billingham AVEA 3 And AVEA 5 Review:
Bags like the Billingham Hadley Pro are great for daily photo walks. However, sometimes no matter how much we want to keep things as light as possible, we all need just a little bit more room. Upgrading to a larger bag isn’t always the best option because something like the Billingham 207, while a superb bag, may have too much room. No one wants to carry something larger and heavier if there is really no need for all that extra space. Plus, it can be expensive. Well, Billingham have a great solution for those wanting just a little bit more room from their smaller shoulder bags: they have the AVEA 3 and AVEA 5 pouches. [continue reading…]
