Description

pretentious? perhaps. but, then again, if you know me ... you know i don't really give a rat's ass.

does it contain mature content? hmm ... no more than whatever else i friggin' write.

this is dedicated to those that belong to ... they understand.

beyond the fact this is an amazing system of bodies and lenses ... for over fifty years ... using them is akin to a sickness.

sickness in the bank account.

better than owning a boat though.

i think, at least.

so ... i hope you enjoy this wordy ... diatribe ... dedicated to those that know what it is to use a Leica ... to those that'd like to learn more ...

whatever...

cheers all!

Some are great picture. But the quality can match up by a zorky or a fed camera on fomapan film. But I have to say i never tryed a leica. And I think there are many photographers who just cant afford one. You can always afford a zorki a fed or a zenit. And after all not a leica makes a photographer. Leicas make snobs, and a few pohotographers. The zorki's and fed's had made photographers and a few snobs. It's easy from hollywood to comment on how fucking lame are all the people who use digital, or anyting else but rangefinder leica. Try to move to a former comunist country and buy a leica and be a fucking photographer here.
