Here’s another shot with the Leica M (240). Again, more will follow the coming days. I may return to the Monochrom with shots from my trip first.

I’m finally back after taking a few weeks off. We traveled to Alabama and to New Orleans and just recently got back. I hope to post some pics from our trip in the coming weeks.
On Friday of last week I got the exciting call from Dale Photo (now called Leica Miami) telling me that I was one of the first to get the new Leica M (240). I’ve only had a small amount of time to take pics. Here is one of my first shots. I could immediately notices substantial improvements in comparison to my Leica M9-P. This shot was taken at ISO 800 and in my opinion renders skin colors much better than the M9 and has much less noise. I think I’m going to be very happy with the camera.
I hope to post more pics soon.

One of the unique things about the Leica M system is its ability to use lenses created over the past 75 years. I recently purchased a Leica 50mm summilux version 1, built-in 1959. Even after 50 years, this lens has phenomenal image quality and unique characteristics.
