Welcome Adam, sounds like you have the same techniques many of us like to 
use. Shoot, post, stand back and hope some comments flow. Given time I think 
all of us have learned heaps by hanging around ;-)

Hello.

I'm a new member and I must admit I'm joining to learn more - not to 
share as I don't HAVE a Leica yet.
I'm hoping to buy either an M3 or, in the case that a huge bag of gold 
would fall in front of me, an MP.

I am using a Contax IIIa with a Sonnar 50/1.5 lens as my primary camera 
and like it a lot but I must admit that I much prefer the pure handling 
of the Leica M-class cameras.

In anyway, attached are two photos taken with the Contax. I take photos 
almost exclusively hand-held, as opened-up as I can and often in dim 
light so the rangefinder have served me well so far at least.


Looking forward to learning a lot here.
Adam
