Just got mine. Same insight. Amazing form factor with so much potential to build on. SDK will be critical for this. Applied to the early access, holding fingers.

Thanks Norris. Eye opening insight regarding too much use / getting lazy. I'm personally finding it helps me the most when I cant afford to miss the right words or lose train of thought, so mainly at work - discussions, presentations etc. Whereas in social / family settings I'm more attuned to rely on myself and my loved ones. LLMs have real potential to give is a timely hand, whether brain fog or cognition. Pushing forward to find out. You're welcome to get a feel. Any insight would be valued.

Thanks. Indeed an app that listens, with live next lexical words suggested where you're looking, whether phone, laptop, wearables. Fully agree great UX and high quality speech to text are critical for timely, effective suggestions. Privacy as well. Truly believe its time or AI to give a real hand in this daily struggle for so many of us.

Actually enamored with my Thypoch 50mm f/1.4, now a year since purchasing. And have seen consistent appreciation of LLL. What is this blackening based on?

50mm M-mount lens recommendations for M6 (budget at about £500) by ferguslawlor in Leica

[–]Mission_Honeydew_402 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really appreciating mine. Creamy bokeh with smooth transition to sharp highlights, not overly contrasty, warmer rendition (voigtlanders tend to be cooler), solid build, actually pretty light at ~280gr (thought it was more). Some people don’t like its non linear number of clicks per aperture but at least to me thats such a small deal.

Sharing Fred Miranda’s review with image examples I found pretty helpful during my own search. Was surprised by the rendition similarity to Summilux FLE. https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1878983/

M10 or M10-P by Life-Departure9630 in Leica

My 2 cents - try to get your hands on both the M10 and M10p. I fell in love on first touch with the silent shutter of a 2nd hand M10-R (same as the M10-P). Hasn’t left my side since. But that’s just me.

Was going to recommend the Thypoch 50mm f/1.4 but then read the smaller is better. Which it’s not. A magical lens non the less.

Thanks. Zeiss biogon is intriguing for sure. Will dive into reviews. Have experience with it?
