Battle of the Century
So I have the temporary use of a nice old Leica M3. Today I vowed that when I woke up, that I was going to go out and shoot a roll with it. I also vowed that I was going to take one of my Canonet QL17s with me and compare it shot-by-shot against the Leica’s Summilux & Summaron lenses. Seems like a lopsided battle for the $40 Ql17, but it is one I must make if I ever want to commit to buying an expensive 35mm rangerfinder kit.
The film is in the devloper as I type, so expect my results in a few days when I can get around to printing some of the identical frames, and viewing them side by side. Its going to be an apocalypyic battle. (or not.)
