Popular hashtags used in social media for those of us who still enjoy shooting film, or for those young ones who have discovered the joy of shooting analogue. Is film dead and new film cameras a thing of the past? Not according to Leica. They currently have 3 film cameras in their lineup, including two that need no battery to work (the MP needs a battery only to allow the light meter to work). The Leica M-A Typ 127 is a fully mechanical camera, batteries not needed. All you need to do is put film in it, adjust the aperture and shutter speed, focus, and press the shutter button. That's it. Yes you'll need some way to meter the light, but if you're experience enough (or use the sunny 16 rule) you're good to go.
I had a great time shooting with the Leica M-A in Hong Kong, and I enjoyed shooting with a variety of films. Fujifilm Neopan ACROS, Fujicolor Pro400H, Cinestill 800T. Beautiful films with unique characteristics that can not easily be simulated by a digital camera or processing. Please enjoy my review of this camera, but also the lens and the film that actually create the images. Thanks for watching, please remember to like and subscribe. Happy shooting
