    I had to subscribe to your channel, because my first Leica M was the M8. Great Video. Keep on rolling and enjoy life!

      Glad you liked it Paul thanks for the encouragement. 🙏 the M8.2 has served me well. What M did you use after the m8? Thanks for the subscribe. I’ve another video for next weekend. Solo hike here with my camera.

      @@colinosullivan I bought the M8 for € 1,600, used for half a year and then a collector offered me € 2,000 for it and off she went. Next step was a M240, which a got cheap and resold with a good profit. I picked up a brand new M-P240 which some was forgotten on a shelf at Leica dealership. Half the retail price. Super camera, can recommand it highly. I've a M240 and a Q too, no, not the Q2. Lens combo includes the brilliant but often overseen Elmar-M 3.8/24, the must have Summilux 1.4/50 and the nice to have Summarit 2.5/90. Before going digital, I had Leica R SLR cameras. The lenses can be used on the M240. My favourite focal length is the 50 mm. For the M8 I had a 28 mm Zeiss. You'll find me on Flickr.

    You can see these mountains from Kinsale heading towards Garrettstown.

    Aloha Colin! Stumbled across your channel a few weeks ago and have been trying to watch both past and newly introduced videos as I enjoy the production, content, images, etc .... all very well done. Keep up the great work in producing content. Mahalo from Kauai, Hawaii. Thomas

      Aloha my friend. I love your place btw! My time surfing in Hawai'i will forever be in my mind! Heaven. Glad you like the content. I really enjoy producing them and that is a lot of the fun here so it doesn't feel like effort if I'm honest! I hope you subscribe and pop back. That's super cool having a Hawaiian here. I never got to Kauai but when I do maybe a photo walk?

Would love to own an older Leica digital rangefinder one day as I owned many Leica film cameras in the past. My only issue is seeing the outside framelines because of my use of glasses. Even bought a Leica M6 TTL with the 0.58 viewfinder just so I could see the 35mm framelines! No problem on meeting you for a photo walk. I do that just about every morning. Mahalo, Thomas

    Hi Colin, amazing videos! I miss Ireland so much... I've worked in Cork for a month and I love it. One question... that 10 Mpx sensor... how good is for printing and cropping? Hope you are well

      Thanks mate. Editing the next video this morning. I think a safe bet on all papers is 13 x 19 inch which I do a lot myself but I have made prints for exhibitions of 50mc X 75cm (20"X30") and they looked great. My friend Paul C Smith did a great video on printing from the M8 here, ua-cam.com/video/5PMsDr3Y4Qw/v-deo.html and also Todd Korol's video is wonderful discussing papers and the important of print ua-cam.com/video/5Dbx5tB7F6E/v-deo.html. Go check both of these out mate. Check back tomorrow for this video. ;)
