I am so excited about my little Leica D-Lux 3 that I purchased from Jose Villa. Yeah, that’s right, Jose Villa sold me a camera. If you know of him, then you know he is an amazing photographer who only shoots with film. I saw a post on twitter that he was selling the Leica and emailed him. The next thing I knew I was chatting with him on the phone getting the details. He bought this little camera for the beach and birthday parties, but only used it three times. He is such a nice and genuine person. Thank you again, Jose!
It arrived today and I was so excited to play with it. I have been wanting a little camera to take places that I could shoot both in manual and raw modes. This one fits the bill. Love it already. Of course it is not the quality of my DSLR, but it is also not as heavy. It does allow me to focus to as shallow as 2.8 and also has a great wide shot. I can control the iso, aperture and shutter, as well as the focus. So nice, all in this lovely little compact camera.
Hello little Leica.
Here are a few more shots from my practice session today.:)
Oh my! They are all just crazy lovely! You inspire me. I want to be like you when I grow up!
Such incredibly beautiful pictures. I especially love the picture of “down the road” – I would love to have that framed large on my wall.
These are incredible.i am still trying to figure out my new dslr. I think a class or two will be in order.
Thank you Anna. Yes classes help a lot! Let me know if I can help!
Thank you Sarah. Can I mail you one?
Thank you sweet, Amy. You are so precious.
