If you one day, while being out in the street with your Leica M3 and feel a sharp object hitting you and collapse on the floor, and 3 weeks later I do a review on a Leica M3 which just really but really REALLY looks like yours.... Its pure coincidence!!! heheheheheheheh :)
@@tompaste387 Just joking around :) I always wanted to have a M Leica, but never justified throwing out alot of money just for a 135 camera. The Leica M cameras are just way too expensive for a common "mortal" to reach them...
Great video. Warning that loading film is a problem! Need long leader as shown by Leica! Use a thin card to press film onto sprockets! Photos from those older lenses, to my eyes, look like from the past! You want retro? It's here!
@@jasongold6751 it is an excruciatingly slow process not for the "run'n'gun" kind of photographers... It's a nightmare to see that the images are over the sprocket wholes! But once you get the hang of it, you get it done with some level of delay. :) here the canon also has a small advantage as the spool locks itself via a spring, and only locks when it is in the correct position. So there is no need to open the shutter and push the film with your own hand into place.
I have the canon VI-T, love the affordability of having a Leica clone with Leica screw mount.
Although the VI is a bit more expensive than the Canon II models, it's as capable as any Leica for a fraction of the price :)
I use a canon serenar f1.8 lens [1952] on my Leica IIf and M3
