[Leica] The "problem" with the M9

[lluisripollphotography]

Hi Ted,

I think remember the last time I took seriously two cameras, one in B&W and one in color was in my trip to NYC in 2005, as a conclusion I can say that I have shoot about 8 B&W films and just one or maybe two in color…, of course as you say, the life moment is what really count, my choice is normally B&W.

Cheers
Lluis

> Since the days of digital/cameras/computers and all that other fiddling	stuff. I rarely think about colour or B&W as we did in the days of film. 2 OR MORE CAMEARS HANGING ON THE BODY WERE ALMOST MANDATORY. Other than when it was an all B&W film documentary or shooting only in colour as that was all the client wanted.  
> I have seen magnificent B&W prints made from digital colour images without any concerns when crossing over to B&W. 
> Me? I just throw the card, well sorry? I push the card into the camera and off I go having a great time without a thought other than capturing a "cool image!"
> And when I pop a digital colour image or from film days and out comes a 13X19 B&W drop dead gorgeous print? I kinda look at it?, "SMILE!" And whisper to myself?  "DAMN YER GOOD!" :-)  Naw not me, it's the machine! :-) :-) 
> Oh sure sometimes you have an absolutely crappy print, but that's just life! So get over it and don't spend 2 or 3 hours computer fiddling it!
