Leica M10-P – A lot of Germany

First of all, I love Leica cameras and I love the brand. Actually I have one Leica M myself.

The first thing I thought when I have seen the new Leica M10-P was how cool the camera is. The second thing was “Hey, there is a lot of stuff written there for a camera that intends to be discrete”.

I suppose this is happening mostly because of their new headquarters in Wetzlar. Moving back to Wetzlar is something that means a lot to Leica due to their history with that city. I had also the privilege to visit Leica in Wetlzar a few years back.

Well, that is just my opinion but that camera would look even better with only “Leica” on the top plate and just “Wetzar Germany” on the back.

Helios 44-2 58mm

Leica M 240 with Helios 44-2 58mm.

This lens was on my desk for a long time, most of the time used as paper weight. It doesn’t deserve this fate. 🙂
Today I saw it and tough with myself: “What wonderful portrait lens” Then decided to go out with my daughter and use it again after all this time.
When I bought this lens a few years back, I also had to get a lens adapter (M42 to Leica M mount), after looking the available options (not many) I decided to buy the Novoflex LEM/CO adapter and I am very satisfied with it.
