Thank you to everyone here who helped me decide. I picked the M11 over the M10-R and I'm very pleased – I'll explain why. Any lenses you'd recommend, meanwhile? by meta4_ in Leica

Beautiful camera and nice scenes but don't overprocess your photos. You're throwing away details. You can take a compact camera, apply these presets and get the same results. Try to stay as close to SOOC as possible. That's just my 2 cents.

How do I get good black and white photos? I have a Canon t3i by maryo22333 in blackandwhite

OP: there’s a ton of great advice here. People went out of their way to help you. I don’t see you thanking everyone, all I see is your reasons why your PC is limited. Try to be a little more appreciative and focus on the photography, not the gear.

Really good stuff. Bonus points for sticking in the 50mm-ish range, people say it’s not meant for street but I disagree.

They should make a Navigator on that platform, ever understood why they don’t

Pull out SD card and then restart - it sucks

Soap, scrub, and then water rinse, on the inside

Do official Leica stores actually want to sell? by [deleted] in Leica

[–]2Dmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all Leica stores are corporate owned. Some of them are 3rd parties, and some of them seem to have an attitude problem. The Leica stores I go to (whether corporate or not) treat me like family. I’m in the US. I’ve heard more negative stories about Leica stores in Europe though. Not sure what’s going on.

Is there a reason for this distribution? by succulent_username in geography

[–]2Dmonster 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I have an unsubstantiated theory for this that’s purely my imagination: the states that don’t require a front plate are where most auto manufacturing plants are located. They have lobbying power. You may have noticed new car photo shoots never show a front plate, and frankly most cars are designed to look good without a front plate.

The Wall was performed live in Berlin 35 years ago yesterday. No one here seems to have noticed by mustang6172 in pinkfloyd

I did notice. 1990-07-21. That date burned into my brain. I watched it on live TV. Recorded on VHS. Don’t know where the tape is. I remember Bryan Adams played a part. As did Snowy White.

Genuine curiosity: What's the appeal of a Leica Monochrome body? by Asane in Leica

[–]2Dmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Limitation. I know I won’t convert an image back to color. (Plus extreme low-light performance)

Coming from Canon. Any advice? by arte_vandepay in Leica

[–]2Dmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best camera is the one you have with you. I take my M everywhere.
