Default Show us your Leicas

Hi all,

Thought I can start a thread here almost like the one in RFF.

Singapore version, roughly the same title.

Here's part of my family, I use them mainly on holidays, when I have time to start guessing exposures without meters.

My M4 Black Paint and Silver Chrome both on 4th versions 35mm Summicrons.

No commemorative royalty, just a commoner, scratched here and there, quirky, but great photos and fun. My favorite M model, fast intutive street shooter when needed.

* Used MF film camera on these after all ...
