Light Lens Lab 8 Elements. The Summicron Typ1 true replica reviewed by ErickPHOTO

I had the Leica Summicron 35mm 8 elements many years ago but I traded it for a Summilux 35mm LFE because I was looking for extreme performance. In the search for optical excellence I turned away from traditional vintage rendering or as many call it the Leica look. Not a bad decision at the time,…

Leather Camera Wrap by ErickPHOTO

Leica BP-SCL6 Battery. Overpriced and/or dealer scam?

It has been known that accessories are often made to help gather the most money after a product is sold.
