I hope you find all you need that satisfies your spiritual and emotional expression through your new equipment.

While Fuji exemplies excellent customer service and turn around Leica’s is slower but has cost me nothing apart from a few emails in the last two years. It’s a strange world, Fujifilm’s plan back fired for me and I have to say Leica Germany has treated me well. I have never been happier going back to my roots. I now develop and scan my own negatives and shoot digital when others may want my shots. I sold all my gear and bought an M9 and a number of lenses, then an M6 Ttl which I now use for colour film and an M3 which I dedicate to B&W Ilford Delta Pro. I went one summer two years ago to Leica Wetzlar to try some real range finders. But the XPro1 left me with a taste for the real thing. First the X100’s, the Xpro1 and then the XT1 with all the greatest recommended lenses. Hi Richard, thanks for your article, it was an interesting read. At first I missed the rangefinder focus that Leica use but now I no longer think about it. And wow! The colors from this camera! I shoot raw and then apply the standard/provia color profile in Lightroom and that is it! I Shoot with the optical viewfinder, using the EVF only to check exposure. I ordered a X-Pro2 and a 35mm f/2 straight away. He was shooting the Fuji X-Pro 2 and the colors in his photos was stunning.

Then I saw a youtube video with a young photographer namned Dante Sisofo. I then tried the Leica M9 but I did not like it at all so I went back to shooting black and white with my Leica M5. I missed a 50mm equivalent lens and a real optical viewfinder. A while ago I wanted to start shooting color, but developing color in Sweden is now really expensive.

I have been shooting film Leica for some years. Switching from a film Leica to a digital Fuji X-Pro 2
