Why do they keep printing photos enlarged across the book folds? Destroys the composition completely.

I just bought a pristine Q2 at Leica Coral Gables/Miami. I actually flew down to pick it up. Spent the weekend, and flew home with my new L

Congratulations mate! that's a fantastic milestone. I've been chipping away at my POV photography channel and the results are slowly building, it's good to hear this. It takes time but you never know if you don't try! ❤

I really don’t like that Cartier-Bresson photo that I’m supposed to think is great. I think it absolutely sucks.

Must feel good living in a civilized place

do most Leica owners own Tesla's and Pelotons?... just curious (always in jest)

Such a cool video, it was absolute pleasure watching it.

Really enjoyed this, nice and chill to watch. The flowers guy on the bike, and the 'When the sun shines on you" were some of my favourites

7 minute video with a 3 minute sponsorship? Really? almost half the video...

Bravo

Does time really important in Street Photography ? Like morning or evening or full day ?

Is your Nostalgic negative recepie compatible with the X100VI? have you tried? because i read that the x100vi is different due by the blue chrome effect

soon as i get by from travelling im gunna grab a copy of this. Oh maybe not its sold out 😞

This is a really good video man. Im keen for a new phone as im unhappy with my Pixel and all im really interested in is the camera being as good as it can be so this looks spot on. Some of your shots were brilliant btw.

Nice little niffty 50. Using at the moment. Was that Mark Newton from the school of photography having coffee you photographed ?

Wow ライカ　‼︎ 素晴らしいPOV Vlog動画ありがとうございます　日本より　Japan

Another cracking one. Just found your channel

These are so good man. Helps me kinda visualize different things to look for when I go out too.

Interesting Edinburgh such a cracking place. .....irn bru and haggis😂😂

hello Mike! I'm from India.Your photography inspired me a lot. I watch ur videos on a regular basis. Visit India, when you get time.❤

Beautiful, but the phone is expensive and no E sim , there is no call sensor, and the biggest problem is that the battery runs out quickly and does not complete the day compared to other flash phones.

Years ago l became aware of Henri Cartier Bresson (mainly through the TimeLife series of photographic books published from the mid seventies, l think l received one every month or so)..What he called the 'Decisive Moment' is what caught my eye. After many years doing other 'things' l am now revisiting my youthful exuberance for street photography. Thanks for rekindling a 50 year old itch!...

Il caffè .. Infatti hai ragione, da romano posso dirti che a Roma il caffè buono lo sanno fare in una decina di posti massimo. Ma è davvero buono, e noterai la differenza. Se vuoi bere un caffè buono ovunque, è a Napoli che devi andare. Anyway è stato molto interessante vedere con i tuoi occhi Roma, dal punto di vista di chi ci è nato è triste che diamo tantissime cose per scontato. Bellissime foto, complimenti.

If only James Popsys still had his Leica....

Mike, I would love to have a go with this lens before you pass it along to someone in another country. I am based in London so it would be easy to meet up and pass it along, Michael

What I got from the video is my opinion of how to do art is better than yours and if you don’t agree you’re lazy. What I love about street photography is you can have 10 photographers take pics of the same spot and get different interpretations of the scene. Some maybe better than others but who’s to say any of them are wrong. That’s just hubris.

I like a lot the comments of the photos you took. Very instructive. Thanks.

The photo of tourists holding up air is ace.

I have this lens and the Leica CL. I never use them. I’m all in on digital and mirrorless. 😀

We use Hasselblad in our studio along with Fuji GFX100 and T+S lenses for our product photography - I bought an M11 for a travel camera, not wanting to take our HAss X2d or 907xCFV100c - now its my favourite camera in the studio - the results under proper lighting with an old 90mm f2 are stunning -

I use 50mm on fullframe and often feels too tight, but i use it anyway. I want to take pictures as close as possible and small aperture usually.

Excellent shots. This was the first Leica lens I had ever owned and I miss it a lot. I took some awesome street photos with it in Memphis years ago. I think I’ll pick it up again and this time not sell it.

check out the 28mm f5.6 summaron, it's the most compact Leica lens I know of (produced by Leica)

I believe pancake 24/2.8 and 40/2.8 are better...

The long focal length is so that we dont get knocked out. If anything, jump up to a 135mm.

Mike - First, may I say what a breath of fresh air you are in the world of highly-opinionated "experts" who believe that talking fast and loud constitutes the ability to educate. You are a masterful presenter and instructor. Second, congrats on getting the M-11P kit; I am right where you were, on the cusp, and you have pushed me over the line - thanks. I have been shooting the Q2M since it came out - the term "gateway drug" always comes to mind when I pick it up! A question: did you ever consider a 50mm vs. the 35? Also, did you look at Voightlander lenses vs. Leica? Keep up the great work - thanks!

I think me Mike ;)

Maybe you shouldn't post a picture of an actual human and have the caption be "underwhelming subject".

I totaly agree with every thing said. I own one myself and love it - ultra small and light, but still very operatable, sharp and contrasty but still has a lot of caracter in my oppinion. I prefer it to my 35mm cron ASPH

Great idea for a project passing the lens around. Be careful getting into vintage lenses, it's a slippery slope!😂 I love how they all render slightly differently and the different bokeh you get from them. So much nicer than modern glass.

Hi Mike, 40mm is one of my favourite focal lengths for street. Does the M11-P have a gridline matching 40mm? I am using a Voigtlander Bessa R3A which has a 40mm gridline, together with the Voigtlander Nokton 40mm f1.4.

3:49 bro nobody punch you yet ? :D

This is genuinely one of the worst photography takes I’ve ever heard. Especially when there are far more accomplished and compelling street photographers than yourself who completely disagree with you. A lens cant ruin your photography. It can add challenges and creative limits but that’s part of the fun. Personally I HATE the 24mm focal length but people love it. But would it be right for me to say 24mm or wider is RUINING your street photography? No. Ofc it doesn’t. Just a stupid and pointless video that will discourage people from using different focal lengths

Hi, I'm new to photography. What do they call the style of photo at the 4:44 mark. I'm referring to the color, there is less colors and feels darker or flat. What do they call that? I have a X100V and would like to learn how to dial in my camera so all my jpeg come out that way and not have to rely as much on Adobe to adjust the photo. Thanks!

Time now to check out Verona and Venice.

Voigtlander 40mm in M mount is easy to find and great.

Pass the lens on to Matt Day

do you usually use the rear screen or the rangefinder patch?

I wish he did more portrait shoot

Nice shots! The 40mm Cron was my entry into the Leica world along with a CL and CLE. It’s such a great lens with its own distinctive look. Still have it paired to a CLE for those days I want something smaller than an M.
