LEICA ELMAR 90MM F/4 - REVIEW AND SAMPLE PHOTOS
Thank you for this video. I have an M10-R, so you made me feel good. I've been waiting for someone to convince me to trade in my M10-R on an M11, and, amazingly, that hasn't happened yet.
Happy to reconfirm that you are still fine with the M10-R!
Did it. Thank you for sharing
Glad to hear! Enjoy 🙏
dude you are just obsessive with your M10 R but there is no way it makes better than M11. M11 will be better always
Depends on what you value I guess. I’ve got both in my possession right now and there are advantages and disadvantages for each
Would You recommend this lens over the Summilux?
It depends on your needs! The summilux isn’t going anywhere but like I said in the video, the Thypoch is so close that the price makes its a compelling choice.
Great intro, I sold it 2m after getting it way to buggy
What issues did you have? I noticed a few instances where it would just not take a photo. Remedied it by removing the sd card.
Hi Is it true that the Leica M11's viewfinder is clearer and better than the M10-R ?
I’ll have to try to test it out. Because it feels like it, but side by side it was less noticeable.
You didn’t say how you tested the adjustment. You just skipped over that. What is the procedure without sleight of hand? And self congratulatorty dead spots.
What adjustment?
how much are they worth now
It varies, I’m seeing them go for at least 9k USD usually.
M10 gen is peak digital Leica. Best shutter and best feel with the bottom plate
Preach 🙏
I own the M10-D ,it's my all-time favourite camera .I look forward to the review of this one
After using this camera, I sure see the appeal and am envious of your M10-D lol
Looking forward to your review!
Looking forward to sharing it!
💸💸
No strap was stressful lol
Where did you get the straps?
Camtec but you can find them on eBay too!
What the.. why is this needed. That’s the reason why the lugs are made of steel and not an anodized metal so you can slip a split ring through and not care.
Say that to my brass lugs on my m2 and m3. Even the steel lugs on my M10 were starting to go after 7 years of use. If it can save my camera and make it last longer, why not?
What pen do you used?
A bic pen
Best review I’ve seen on the topic. Thank you. It helped with my purchasing decision.
Glad to hear it helped! Enjoy!
Super simple, I love it. Thanks for this excellent tip.
Glad to help!
Love your videos.. can you also share your LR workflow. 🙏
Thank you! Yeah I can definitely do some content on that
weird how people are different. ive started with m10r . the battery is atrociously bad. on top of that one has to carry nasty power brick with proprietary cable . sd card speed as atrociously slow , images are more similar to Sony - which is more robotic - artificial . iPhone app wasn't usable with that cam. those were my beef . although I was involve with black chrome finish . then ive got m11 black - main reason usbc charging ! my goodness finally ive got extra space in my luggage . then I have realized how much faster and responsive the camera was doing anything . the screen is sharper , Manu sophisticated . battery astronomical I use camera every day and charge in once a week . the sensor 60mp res sensor is so much better . the elec shutter such a help . the app is flying . can't streams enough how much I love it . (oh I can - ive bought 6-7 of these in any variant and color )
That’s totally fair, hope you are enjoying the M11! FYI the M10R works fine with the Fotos app, also I have never used that clunky cable, I use an Apple charger attachment instead. And I can’t agree with that Sony comparison at all, I find if anything the M11 is more similar to my A7rV than the M10R is at all to the a7riii. Are you using the correct profiles?
@@GenericPhotographer this why hearing what you say so weird . cause ive been in your shoes . although I feel like you are living in a state of loving a thing in subjective way . like parents love kids and people love they homeland and neighborhood ( not unconditionally - you create positive imaginative condition for love not assuming negatives at face value and decide to love ) - devoid of ability to dis-attach and see things objectively . Fotos app is so much slower and connection worse . lotsa force closures . as far as I get you don't use it much at all I, au contraire, exclusively use it for everything , editing on iPhone . 99% of times its the phone over Mac since I always on the move ( hence the need to rid of nasty made-in-china in defunct power brick and cable ). I have used 10r and 11s on par with Sonys and every single time I can see the difference from a 10 feet distance . I never use anything stock if I can modify the item . I use capture one ( which interprets color range much different from LR ( which is more robotic/artificial ) on top a that I have created two profiles for M11 based on q3 pro standard and m10 which I have tweaked ( taking off all auto correction sharpening and all that artificial enhancing crap that there and already baked in files of other camras . only thing is to deal with nasty damson cast . again its not a slander to your Character , youre cool guy and I enjoy seeing your thrill .your remind me myself . just funny how people are absolutely identical in everything , needs desires , thrive , habits , impulses yet un similar in tiny unimportant on grand scale minute details . all and all beautiful camra . those lugs will outlive you if don't they sell for 15 greenbacks or leica fix them it self ( since you don't mind sending your gear to some persona with who knows what hands somewhere to fix it for your self ) . adieu ( till the next one, Video , though )
Salute to the Frankenstein BP M10 as ti served you well. So happy you got the M10R BP! Let's shoot together the next time you get back to NYC as we just ran into each other for a short time last time. @easystreetnyc
Hey Jimmy! I almost included that pic I snapped of you in this video haha. Yes absolutely! I’m hoping to go again this spring and I’ll hit you up! ✌️
I would never buy a black paint Leica now! Water based paint job! Disgusting..
Lucky for you that the black chrome exists ✌️
It’s an awesome camera! The big thing with the m11 for me is I can use lenses like the 21 Zeiss 4.5 and the older, tinier Voigtlander 12 and 15 without color cast issues finally. I also love how light it is. I could do without the 60mp to be honest but it has proven useful.
Very interesting! The bsi is superior for color casts is what you’re saying? I loved the 21 4.5 but it did exhibit some color casts on the edges and i ultimately went with a 21 3.5 color skopar. Also I’d buy a dual range cron immediately if I owned a M11. Enjoy!
@ yes that one finally works on the m11 too! Those problem lenses also look nice o the sl2s but I haven’t stress tested them.
I am interested in learning more about your pen ink cartridge trick
Just dropped it on my YT shorts, check it out!
Isn’t an M10R 47mp?
You might be thinking of the SL2, the M10R is around 40
Great review, thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! I love that highlight glow you have in some of your images(21:19). Is that from the M10-R sensor, a lens, or a mist filter?
Thanks for watching! That glow is from the Steel Rim reissue! It’s incredible
@@GenericPhotographer Ahh that's a dream lens for me! I'll make do with my cron until then.
What lens did you use on pic on 8:15sec looks very magic. Steel rim or Cron 35 Asph? Feels like you are using some filter to get that dreamy look
Steel Rim reissue good sir. No filter can come close enough
M10R is the best candidate as a digital M "forever body," imo. Perfect resolution to future proof, exposes off the shutter, still feels like you're handling a film body, etc. It's quintessential Leica and only that. The M11 took it one step too far, imo. I'm still on the M240, though. I just love the color and beefy body. The M10R is the only body that could replace it supposing M240s become too hard to acquire one day.
Thank you so much for this video. Do you know that before one week I was trying to sell my M10-R black paint and replace it with M11-P. But Now I changed my mind I came to know that I have a great and valuable camera . That why I surprised that they offering a good price for it. Again thank you for this video. 👍
So glad that you decided to keep it. If it ain’t broke!
@@GenericPhotographer It’s Like New. I am talking care of it.
Compared to m11 black paint?
oh you mentioned at 3:00 sorry.
I'd say that the m11 is more refined and features some tech, but the m10-r bp is still a highly capable camera with its classic Leica feel.
me who can only buy a Leica book catalog: "hmm yes the M10-R seems to be a good purchase."
They do make nice catalogs 🥲
This is my personal opinion, but I think it's better to buy the M11 than to buy the M10R. In Korea, where I live, the only difference in price is 1,200 US dollars for the same used model.
You can't go wrong either way, but the M10-R Black Paint is a true classic!
The M10 line is actually able to be charged with USB C. Sort of. You need the proper power bank and 12v to USB-C cable. And boom! The car charger port on the battery charger can now plug into that power bank. USB Type C PD to DC Power Cable(55x25)-12V And a beefy ass power brick that can support the charger.
What’s the brand of your brass soft release on the M10R BP? I like its profile and thin’ness.
In my opinion, the M10-R Black Paint is a class above the M11 Glossy Black and will continue to be one of the most sought after pieces for years to come.
You said it not me 🤫
I love my m10r bp, nothing can do us part… until i remember they wont be supplying the battery forever and i agree battery life aint that bad considering its capacity.. i got 3
Nice! I’m not too worried about it. My batteries are 7 years old and hanging in fine. Enjoy!
i just got an M10-R as well! i really like your street photography photos, which lens do you use for those shots, btw? and also, what’s your typical and max ISO used for those photos? thanks! great content!
awesome! I use a variety of lenses, most shown here are with the steel rim reissue, 35 cron asph and 21 3.5 color skopar asph. I like to keep it at around iso 400, remembering to aim for 1/500 shutter speeds or higher. Sometimes I’ll go up to 1600 or higher though most pics shown here are between 200-800.
Congratulations :)
Thanks 🙏
You came from the old M10 so you know: new batteries are hard to come by, and Leica's unlikely to sell any after, oh, 2027. You might be wise to have a third one if you want to keep shooting with it for years and years.
I’m not too worried. My 7 year batteries are doing just fine and I’ve put them through countless cycles through the years.
I currently own M8,9,240, and 10R. My concern is the inability to get batteries for my 240 and 10R. If Leica can’t resolve their issue with letting third parties make the batteries like the M8 and 9, may have to upgrade just to M 11 just to have a working camera instead of beautiful paper weights!
By that logic you would be stuck with constantly buying a new Leica. I for one can’t justify that nor do I plan on letting this happen. I’m hoping someone comes up with a third party solution soon. Would love some Neewer branded m10 batteries for 30$ haha
Camtech are the BEST.
Yess
my M8 was ultimate then M9 and of course M240, then MD, then M10 and so ….. bullshit
By that logic I’d be praising the M11 black paint 🧐
Does the M10-R also have the quiet shutter? Or is that only the m10-R Black Paint and m10-P?
All M10R, P and D cameras have it
Andrew, congrats on getting a bucket list camera. That said, while the heart wants what it wants, I find your reasoning around the M11 to be slightly motivated. Re the "pinnacle of the M"; I also find the bmw-owner esque _current model is always worse than the last_ thing humorous but also somewhat frustrating. I am glad that is something that doesn't actually stick or we'd all still be shooting Barnacks. Of course, I am an M11 owner, so I would say all that.
Thanks! There are a multitude of reasons why the M11 is a superior camera. Love the M reference, Porsche guys are cut from that same cloth too. There are arguments to be made for each camera, there isn’t really a wrong choice, that said I’m very happy with the compromises that I have with the M10R but I would surely welcome some of the creature comforts of the M11.
Congrats on the new beauty! As a former M9 shooter to M10P, I like the punchy contrast and saturation, but in your experience did the M10 always have this color profile or did this happen over time with updates? Curious to know if the current M11 / SL cams with Magenta can be tweaked?
The M10 always had the same amazing colors. I’d wish that Leica can tweak the colors. I have a few settings applied upon import on my Sony cameras and I feel like one could do the same for the M11. Seems like a lot of the issues with the M11 are hardware related, startup time for instance.
Stop it! Tell me there’s SOMETHING wrong with it! I don’t need another camera, my M10 is fine … I don’t need another camera, my M10 is fine … I don’t need another camera, my M10 is fine….
Haha M10 is just fine! I really enjoy all the photo I’ve ever taken with mine and I still think it has the best out of camera photos.
M10-R BP is a real beauty that’s is for sure, I’m very happy with my M10-R black chrome but every time I see the BP version OH Boy ! Please do a short video on your pen ink cartridge insert I would be interested in checking that. Thanks as always Andrew your YT is top.
Thank you for the words of encouragement! I’ll drop a short to go over it. Enjoy that black chrome! It’s a unique finish as well. Grass is always greener amr?
So happy for you. :-) I’m rocking my M9 and loving it. Just want more DR and be able to recover shadows…at all. LOL!
Yeah, the DR on this is fantastic! The m9 is great, try using a circular polarizer! You won’t feel like you’re missing out at all in daylight
It’s a very real possibility that people will look back and consider the M10-R BP as the peak of digital Ms…but you get the BP to scratch it up, brass it, etc.- I say lean in and enjoy that process of making the camera truly yours!
Exactly, and that’s what makes the black paint special! We’re getting there gradually!
could you perhaps make a video showing and explaining the ink cartridge mod you did to protect the lugs? thank you
Done! I’ll drop it shortly ✌️
@genericPhotographer ah brilliant, I just looked on my new m11 glossy and I see west already, took that Leica strap off and will get the one in your video
My BP MP is looking quite brassy and very scratched up after 8 or 9 years. You have to just let go and let it happen. It’s probably knocked a few quid off its value but then I am not planning on selling it.
It’s your camera after all! Love me a brassy black paint Leica 👌
Finally! Thank you very much for making this video! :) I really was curious about your thoughts and the reason, why you chose the M10R (BP) over an M11 model. Also thank you for your honesty about the black paint. I own a black paint MP for couple of months and I'm exactly the same like you. I really like to look of the black paint, but damn it's a fingerprint magnet + I also somehow fear to scretch the paint although I chose the black paint to get it brass over time through use :D I thought I'm the only one having these kinda crazy thought as a black paint owner. Looking forward for more videos from you about your beautiful M10-R BP :)
Thanks for watching! I feel like just giving it one big scratch to rip the bandaid off lol. Enjoy!
Hello, I am also using this M10-R and film MP for the black paint. I also shared a video on youtube to show the close-ups. I am very happy with it as well. I used to owned a M11, but at the end, I decided to let the M11 go and keep the M10-R black paint. But now, with M11 Black Paint, and M10-R black paint, I would like to know more about which one to choose from. What do you think?
