happy birthday to me ("new" leica m2)
After so much time spent converting M8 files to B&W and trying to make them look like film, I'd been entertaining the thought of just shooting film (I know, crazy idea). That, plus having a "full frame" camera would be nice, too.
So, lately I've been shopping for Leica M2s. I got close to buying one online a couple times, but held out until I could go to my local store and hopefully find a good one that I could actually hold and try out before buying. Amazingly, they had one in stock, and it's nearly perfect! And, 33% less than the ones I'd been considering online.
Happy birthday to me, indeed!
Glad I kept my extra 35mm (a Nokton), as it's not really "extra" now.
I shot a 36-exposure roll of Plus-X today and have already dropped it off for a dev/scan. Can't wait to see my results, especially since I was using "sunny 16" exposure (no meter in this baby).
