HI BradThe MM is a special camera and quite pure in use, but the M240 is capable of clean shots at ISO 5000 and beyond. I owned both for a time and aside from not needing the few extra steps in Lightroom and SilverEfex, the Monochrom became a shelf queen while the M240 did everything asked of it. There were many shooting times when I only had the Monochrom with me that I wished I had the option of color.
The Monochrom is a wonderful tool that produces fantastic images. But the M240 just eclipses it. I wish I still had a Monochrom around so I could take side by side images and show you what I mean.
Unfortunately for the ensuing discussion in this case it means no such thing at all. This “special edition" was commissioned by the Dutch importer to mark the official opening of the first Dutch Flagship Store. Nothing more…Special Editions like this means a new model is coming soon, perhaps one based on the M240.
+1! Quite agree. Brad, what an absolutely wonderful gift you've provided her and I can't imagine much else thats more special. I can see what she treasures it. Aside from those obviously requiring images for specific jobs or purposes, this is what photography was meant to be...creating lasting memories.Brad,
What a wonderful thing you did for your mom and yourself. It reminds me why I came to love photography many years ago. My mom had a large collection of photos she accumulated over the years, and I looked through them many, many times as a youth.
