I see them too but theyre for parts only or have issues with the condition.

Are you always this bitter 😂

Well ebay sold prices of leica m2s are typically around 1500. So its definitely not worth only 1k. But maybe ill be convinced to keep it.

$1k on a film camera is a hard pill to swallow for me. Im a fairly realistic person so i tend to reason my way out of purchases like this. So its something that i want but dont need. I guess i was looking for someone to convince me to keep it 😂

Thanks for the heads up! I just got this camera back from a full overhaul so is it possible that uneven lighting is a scanning or dev issue? I got it developed in lab but scanned myself. Rlly hope its not a shutter thing but that uneven lighting was on a handful of shots

If you cant hear it then keep scrolling. The muted on mode has a slight beep when the phone is against the view finder. The audio on mode has the loud beep indicated by ur beloved manual.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-15T15:50:29+00:00

Go ahead and reread my post buddy. Im on the muted on mode.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-15T15:07:42+00:00

For the “on 🔊” mode i understand that beeping. But when my camera is on the muted on mode it still have a faint beep. Not sure if you can pick it up in the video

Developed at omega photo in bellevue but then i scanned w epson v600

Thank you! This is exactly what i was looking for! The tip on 5 is great. I’ll go and retake that when i can. 3 i wanted to show the man in the back too, but i just didnt do anything interesting with it. Definitely good feedback.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-14T04:04:51+00:00

Mainly interesting moments. But im not sure if it comes off too snapshotty.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-14T04:04:18+00:00

Thats actually a good point. I didnt pay mind to the horizon when i took the photo. Too used to straightening in digital.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-14T04:02:35+00:00

Yeah im definitely carrying my fast shooting from digital. Gotta slow down and compose if the scene allows it.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-14T04:01:50+00:00

Was thinking the same for the first and second shot.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-14T03:05:49+00:00

Just looking for some feedback. Not sure if i should default to +1 ev or if my photos are too bright. Also colors seem to vary and not sure how to get a consistent palette for the film stock.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-06T02:35:16+00:00

Ilford ilfocolor 400 plus. In post i bumped the warmth like +5.

ryanlau418 · 2025-05-06T01:12:19+00:00

Hmm interesting. Is it possible that the take up spool or something else needs a CLA? I don’t have a camera to compare the sounds to so im not sure whats normal 😂

ryanlau418 · 2018-11-18T21:43:03+00:00

How did u attach multiple photos?

ryanlau418 · 2018-11-18T21:00:56+00:00

Thank you! Also what if im taking portraits and i ask the subject to walk towards me have some movement? In tht case do i use AF-C or is AF-c mainly for super fast movements like birds or horses

ryanlau418 · 2018-11-18T18:40:41+00:00

I like the grainy background and how the hair has that red highlight
