Leica M-A

The last film camera? "Leica M-A"

Film camera, do you use it?

I have a compact camera, the CONTAX T3, and a mechanical rangefinder, the Leica M-A I own a Leica M-A.

I recently contributed to Gizmodo Japan for a review of the Leica M-A for long-term use. In the article, I wrote a review of the Leica M-A for Gizmodo Japan, showing its features and what I noticed during its use. We hope you enjoy it.

The Leica M-A is the latest Leica film camera

The Leica M-A is a fully mechanical camera without an exposure meter and without the need for batteries.

Naturally, there is no LCD and no auto function at all. Aperture, shutter speed, focus, everything is manual.

Such a camera, but it was released in 2015. It is the latest Leica film camera that can be purchased new, and it may be the last one! Model.

As I wrote in the Gizmodo article, many people have given up on manual operation without an exposure meter or new Similar used ones are not uncommon, and I was able to buy a beautiful one quite cheaply at the japanese camera store "map camera".

In the Leica feature of Pen magazine, many celebrities introduced film Leica instead of digital ones, and There it was.

I use the digital M10-P as my main camera, but it's still there for the film camera. It has only one appeal, that's for sure.

Please read the review.
