Dan Tamarkin Stands on a Leica M6

In a feat of classic salesmanship, Dan Tamarkin, owner of Tamarkin Camera in Chicago, posted a video of himself standing on top of a Leica M6 on the business’s Instagram feed last week. The Leica M6 35mm rangefinder camera was built between 1984 and 2002. It has been in headlines recently because it was recently re-released by the eccentric German camera manufacturer at a time when no other…

Leica Q-P camera officially announced

The previously rumored Leica Q-P camera is now officially announced. Available in matte black exterior, the new model doesn’t have the front-facing Leica red dot logo, but it has the classic script engraving on the top plate. The shutter release button and power switch/drive mode selector have been redesigned to be like the those found on the Leica M10 and CL. The Leica Q-P will be on sale beginning today at Leica Stores, Boutiques and Dealers for $4,995 (some stores already have it in stock today):

Press release:

The New Leica Q-P: An Artful Statement of Understatement

A refined design and kit for Leica Camera’s celebrated full-frame compact Leica Q

November 6, 2018 – Known for its perfect balance of performance and handling, the Leica Q-P builds on the critically acclaimed technical features of the Leica Q, now dressed in a stealthy yet elegant black body with improved tactility at the photographer’s fingertips. The new Leica Q-P sets the bar for unobtrusive shooting in a fully-featured full frame compact camera, instilling confidence in its users to document any situation they may find themselves in.

With its matte black exterior, subtle design and superior imaging performance, the Leica Q-P goes beyond simple cosmetic changes to improve ergonomics and tactile feel for the user. Designed to be discreet, the front-facing Leica red dot logo is omitted in favor of the classic script engraving on the top plate, making the front of the camera a simple all-black facade. For more assured mechanical feedback, the shutter release button and power switch/drive mode selector has been redesigned; now more akin to those found on the Leica M10 and CL, each setting clicks into place with confidence even when going solely by feel and touch. The haptic experience of using the Leica Q-P is refined and honed from start to finish, from the new shutter release and textured matte paint finish to the new and exclusive brown leather carrying strap included with the camera – made from the finest quality hide.

Due to its easy operation and fast autofocus, the Leica Q-P never misses the decisive moment. Discreet and versatile, the Leica Q-P aids photographers with capturing the perfect shot across a variety of genres including sports, concerts, weddings and photojournalism. The Leica Q-P is the “do-it-all” camera, with its simple button arrangement, compact-size, versatile prime lens and high-quality image results. The Leica Q-P comes packaged with a second rechargeable battery, to keep its users powered up and ready to take pictures all day and night long.

Known for its trailblazing camera design, which combines the high-performance qualities of a full frame sensor in an innovative compact camera, the Leica Q series makes for easy and intuitive handling. With the Leica Q-P, photographers are able to achieve optimum image results with the help of the 24 megapixel full frame sensor and fixed Summilux 28 mm f/1.7 ASPH lens. An integrated high-resolution 3.68 megapixel EVF ensures that the photographer is always in control of the moment. The fast autofocus and burst shooting speed offered by the Leica Q-P ensure that the photographer is fully equipped for the unexpected moment. The camera also features an integrated Wi-Fi module for remote control and digital transfer of still pictures and video to a smartphone with the new Leica FOTOS App on iOS and Android.

The Leica Q-P will be on sale beginning today at Leica Stores, Boutiques and Dealers for $4,995.

Regardless of if you own a Leica, own 50 Leica’s, wish you owned a Leica or don’t give a shit about Leica cameras, the prolific camera maker’s recent announcement of a new film camera is important news for the film, and maybe even the photography community as a whole.

Leica M10-D camera additional coverage

Leica M10-D camera additional coverage:

“The calling card of the camera is its lack of a rear LCD monitor. In its place, on the rear of the body, is an exposure compensation dial (a first for Leica M bodies) and surrounding this dial is an outer ring to turn the camera On/Off or set it to On with Wi-Fi. And just as disorienting as seeing a digital camera without a screen for the first time is seeing a digital camera with a film advance lever… well, it’s not really an advance lever, but rather an integrated fold-out thumb rest for greater stability and handling, especially when working with heavier lenses. Finally, giving the M10-D a bit more versatility than its predecessor, this new model also has built-in Wi-Fi, which works in concert with the newly introduced Leica FOTOS app. This app, available for iOS and Android, will allow you to pair the camera with a mobile device for transferring images, remotely controlling the camera and shooting with a live view image, and enabling you to adjust a selection of camera features, such as choosing between JPEG or DNG, setting the time and date, and formatting your memory card. Also new, the M10-D will be compatible with the Visoflex electronic viewfinder for TTL viewing, extra-precise focusing, and for working with super wide-angle lenses.” (Explora)

“The new Fotos app, which works with all of Leica’s cameras that have Wi-Fi, is cleanly designed and transfers images from the camera to your phone quickly. But getting the app connected to the camera takes some time; it’s not something you can easily do in between each shot you take. Leaving the Wi-Fi option on the camera enabled and your phone connected while you shoot will also quickly drain the battery in the camera. Leica says it expects users to use the app sporadically to review shots when they are done shooting and not throughout the day.” (The Verge)

I imagine that, just as in our household and on the beta forum, this camera will really polarise opinion. Personally, (although I wouldn’t have it as my only M camera) I very much like shooting with it, I’m even considering buying one (not least to irritate my son!). Whatever the arguments about its functionality, the camera is a beautiful object, a pleasure to hold and a pleasure to shoot with. Some people may feel that, in including the EVF and Wifi with the connection to Fotos Leica has compromised the ‘purity’ of the original M-D. My feeling is that it’s good to have the options available, but I didn’t find myself using them in real shooting conditions (either the Wifi or the EVF). (Slack)

Some work from the first test roll I shot with the Leica M2 that was graciously loaned to me by @tamarkincamera. This is a (very) low resolution scan from that roll.  I am shooting work with the M2 for a show this December at the Rangefinder Gallery.
