    M10 Monochrome

    I confess I’m tempted. I’ve more than once had serious trouble with Leica’s slow-motion service department, so I fear this is a ‘Lucy and the football’ trap and I’ll get nicked again. But I’m mostly just using Sony bodies with Leica lenses and printing BW. Stop me before I trade in a bunch...

    FS: Sony A7rII with Kolari mod for Leica M lenses

    I'm sorry I didn't see this and reply promptly! I've sent you a PM. I should have added in my message that the images posted on SHADOWSCAPES - KIRK THOMPSON PHOTOGRAPHY were taken with the Leica Tri-Elmars – 16-21 and 28-50. Kirk

    FS: Sony A7rII with Kolari mod for Leica M lenses

    It's time to sell my A7RII with Kolari sensor modification. The modification makes it more compatible with Leica and other 'legacy' M-mount lenses. It includes a Leica M to Sony FE adapter and the usual accessories. It did much of the work for this book (SHADOWSCAPES - Kirk Thompson...

    I am so glad Sigma is going to push me towards bankruptcy...

    I guess it’s nice that it has interchangeable lenses. But I see no EVF, and this has a 24 MP sensor instead of 42. So I’d much prefer either RX1r2 or new Leica Q for small FF camera. Kirk

    Leica Tri-Elmar 28 35 50 Version 2

    Does everyone know how well these work on Sony A7/9? They’re retrofocus, so they cover the corners well. Kirk

    So Leica makes cameras for pros... Really?????

    Can’t help but agree - 30 years fine performance and service in the analog era; but delivery of defective products and truly abominable service in digital era. I remain loyal to some of my Leica lenses, but will never use them again on a Leica body. Kirk

    Sony A7R B+W conversion

    Simply upgrading to A7r2 or r3 and then converting files to BW might be a better way to go. You’d preserve the option of using the BW conversion color sliders, which IMO is an important part of contemporary BW tonal control. Kirk

    The Definitive Sony B&W Images Thread

    I like the subject matter, light, and composition! But I wonder about the high contrast. Had you tried a version with more highlight and shadow detail? Kirk

    Leica R vs Leica M lenses

    The R lenses are retrofocus lenses, which gives them an advantage re: corner color/sharpness. But the M Tri-Elmars - MATE and WATE - are also retrofocus and work beautifully on mirrorless (my experience is with A7r2). The other option to R lenses is the classic Zeiss C/Y glass made for Contax...
