Leica M1
“My name is Leica M1. I am not the boss, but I would like to keep my name and pay tribute to myself. I managed to differentiate myself from the M2 and focus on practical research work.

LEICA CL REVIEW
If the Leica M2, M3, M4, M6, and MP have a noble and elegant temperament, then the Leica CL seems somewhat ambiguous, with a charm that attracts bees and butterflies. It turns out that a camera can also have a story. With a rangefinder viewfinder, coupled focusing, and the LEITZ logo, the Leica CL is […]

Hasselblad Xpan Black & White film
The Xpan is a magical machine. A product of a collaboration between Hasselblad and Fujifilm, with a rangefinder viewfinder and electric advance. The shutter is resolute and powerful, and the metering is extremely accurate. The accompanying lens is unparalleled, even the 45mm is already very good, covering two 135 format frames.

The Adolescence of Leica Digital – Leica M9 The last Kodak train quietly took away the CCD of the M9. It couldn’t be kept, nor could it be saved. Leica has entered the mature CMOS era. Youth must eventually bid farewell. Farewell, youth, that pure happiness gradually stings memories. Remembering the Leica M9 In 2009, […]
