Good morning awesome war torn camera geeks! Today’s #flashbackfriday post is from #2008 and this is from one of my #regret files 😢 A little bit of a long read but if you love Leica you may find it interesting 😎👍 Ok so in this pic, I’m holding a Canon EOS 30D which is an 8mp DSLR that you can get very cheap these days. It’s a very nice camera but nothing really special in today’s world. But that lens… The lens is the rarely seen Leica 35mm f/1.4 Summilux in R mount 😍 This was the ROM version and I got it for around $800 in 2008 My R collection was nearly complete at this point but the M8 was...…Good morning awesome war torn camera geeks!

Good morning you awesome and voracious war torn camera geeks! Today we take a look at what time has proven to be one of the most unique and enduring digital cameras ever produced, the Epson R-D1. INTRODUCTION The Epson R-D1 is a digital rangefinder camera introduced by Epson in 2004. It is the world’s first digital rangefinder camera. The R-D1 sports a 6.1 megapixel, APS-C sensor with a 1.5x crop factor. The camera has a Leica M mount. The body was built by Cosina and is based on the Voigtlander Bessa R series of film cameras.

Good morning you awesome war torn camera geeks! A couple of months ago, I received a plain iPhone 13 as a gift (not a Pro, Pro Max, or whatever other fancy version) and after two months I have to say it’s a game changer! This photo was shot on the iPhone 13’s Portrait mode at f/1.4. Now I’m not posting this photo because I think it’s impressive or anything.

But to the general, non camera public, I could imagine...…Good morning you awesome war torn camera geeks!
