The decisive moment

It has almost been written and used to death. The ‘decisive moment’ has been the topic of many, many articles on documentary photography. And not just documentary photography. Even studio photographers talk about the decisive moment these days. In a way, there can be a decisive moment during a studio session, but I think that’s […]

The Thumbie is here!

I’m a big fan of Thumbs-ups on my Leicas. On both M9s that I own, the original Thumbs-up are almost permanently attached. I moved one of these to my new M240 when I bought it, but there is one big disadvantage with the current design: it leaves the EVF port useless and that’s inconvenient. If […]

A poor man’s Noctilux I

The Leica M240 offers something we haven’t seen before: Live view! Although I thought I’d never use this feature when I bought the camera, I have found it to be incredible useful: when used with non-RF coupled lenses. I started my career in photography with a Minolta XD-7, also known as the XD-11. I needed […]

From Holland with love

You might know that Holland is famous for its flowers and to be more specific: tulips. Although this flower was imported from Turkey a long time ago, we have made the production of new tulips in to an art. A few days ago, I visited the region where the breeding of tulips is concentrated, quite […]
