LEICA SL2 & Leica 16-36MM SL VARIO Lens
Beautiful. Such an amazing kit!
Still loving my M10-P and Q... But... ... I just got my M10 Monochrom with a very special Leitz Wetzlar 35mm lux limited edition lens on Monday! I specialize in B&W and this camera is blowing my mind.

The Ms are lovely camera and lens system. My fave lens was the 35 lux asph v1. Such a nice render from what it captured
Zoom lenses aren't my thing. Much rather a prime. Saying they I'm a bit slow at focusing mf with my eyes so I since moved to an A9 and some Batis lenses, which can keep up with our puppy without problems! |

Great photos, and wonderful to see a camera being used as intended, not just stashed away as a trophy

To each their own, but why keep it boxed up? I'm not a Leica guy; is this a "safe queen" type of thing? I personally don't believe in safe queens in general, so just curious. No harm intended!

I opened and setup the SL2 this am and took a single picture with it of my office but the FILE is HUGE and unable to post it here. When I can figure out how to resize snaps on my MACBOOK Pro , I will post it here..

Haha. The EVF is helpful depending on the shot and position. I use it 50% of the time. Just enable LV and the second you place your eye up against it it’ll trigger.

Thanks, Adam. There’s a lot of enjoyment when you actually use the gear. Mush like watches. Better in the wrist than hidden away from the elements.

Very nice pictures.
Leicas are beautiful tools that I only used once. They just didn't work with my way of shooting and what I needed. They sort of stayed with the street photography/photojournalist people. Now that BreguetRolex has an excess of Leicas, I look forward to him pedaling over to my house and dropping a few off, so they don't get jammed up from lack of use. (You can keep the boxes)

Been driving and motorcycling around wine country a ton lately and keep thinking, damn, I should take some pictures. My 24 inch printer sitting there staring at me, unused in 4 years.

I literally just cleaned my printer that was sitting for about the same time as yours. It’s an absolute miracle it’s alive. I thought it was time to send it to the recycler. Haha.

That way you don't have to use your cameras to take pictures of your cameras.
