Selected User Reviews For Leica M (Typ 262) Digital Rangefinder Camera (Black Body Only)
My only film camera is a Leica, and I have been getting into it for more than ten years. The Leica digital M camera I use today is my first digital Leica. I absolutely love it!.
In this camera, the metering system is not on, and the display on the screen does not correctly match the captured image I realize it is too late to change anything about it, but it is still incredibly sad.
The M Typ 262 offers a wide range of features and is a super-compact digital In comparison to the previous Leica M, it Leica's M Type 240 was replaced by the E, which had less capabilities. Due to its lack of video or live view, it is more of a purist camera. In my opinion, it replaces the original Leica M9. In many ways, this camera is the M9 that many had hoped for from the beginning. It has a larger LCD screen, an excellent 24MP full frame sensor, and a redesigned and quieter shutter cocking mechanism. 'The lack of a bright line window in the viewfinder makes me miss the traditional look, but the light from the new LED frameline illumination system that's on the way The former, however, requires no power whereas the latter does. As a whole, the M Typ 262 is a good, modern model. The company has managed to do so without sacrificing its roots or heritage. Rather than a brass top plate, it has an aluminum top plate, which results in a weight reduction of about 95 grams. This is a high grade aluminum type with an anodized exterior instead of paint (I like it better that way). As far as ISO 3200 is concerned, the image quality is excellent. It sounds like the new shutter cocking mechanism will make you heart race, if that's something that makes your blood boil. Having a larger LCD screen is nice, although I don't need the full 3" screen for my purposes. The second one I found is There is no need to worry about the size of the sensor with Thankfully, handling isn't much affected by the larger screen. There is still room for your thumb and the back of the device doesn't feel too Among all the current bodies on the market I chose the Typ262 because I did not want the distraction of live view or video to get in the way of my shooting It doesn't matter what camera you need, I've got plenty. Immersing the senses and the mind into the photographic experience is the point of a rangefinder. distraction can cause you to leave that zone, or tempt you to be out of it altogether. It would be great if there were no distractions or temptations. Due to its simple design, the Typ 262 is simple due to the absence of extra A simple design can often be more effective than a complex one. you happen to be at this site, you are looking at this model for a reason- If you want to be a part of the photography process, that's what you want. You can't find a better digital camera right now to aid you on this quest. I will be writing a full review of this product If you search for my name or blog name and type in 262, you'll find it in a few moments. The results I've seen thus far have been impressive. **)*** **** - Garrard, Carl.
An amazing piece of kit.
It has been more than three years since I first used it. This is a great product. It feels quality, is simple, and goes back to the basics. I think the other review complaining about the metering system is Leica digital cameras tend to meter highlights more in line with classic film cameras. It's likely that the highlights of the picture are correctly exposed, but the shadows are underexposed. An image that looks like it was shot on film is created as a result. For a proper exposure, you should use either a light meter or manual exposure, and know what you're There are a lot of features here at a great price (considering you need to pay $8-$17 I would pay $9k for the.
