    Yep agree. The M11 and the 35mm Summilux FLE Close Focus is the core of my Leica kit and my most used combo.

      @@jamie.dop_ Of course I do. I have the 21mm Super-Elmar, the 50mm Summicron V5, VM 28mm Ultron, VM75mm Nokton, and VM 90mm Skopar-APO, along with M10-P, and now the D-Lux 8. But the M11 and 35mm Lux is my favorite and most used.

    I liked your video. I’m considering adding a 50mm lenses and have been thinking about the Summicron versus the Summilux. I do want the extra stop and I hadn’t considered how the close focus can make a more dramatic photo. I shoot with an m10 and 35mm close focus Lux as my only lenses. I am an amateur, passionate about taking interesting photos. I just subscribed to your channel. I too would enjoy a video on the red dot equipment. Thanks again.

      @@richa2495 another person with an M and 35 lux close focus! Amazing. Lucky man. I do really love the Noctilux however they are big, heavy and £££. The Summicron is amazing and I don’t know if the standard 50lux is worth the bump in cost but the close focus really is game changer if you like taking portraits or shooting through materials or objects. Where are you based? Best to try in a store rather than judge off others videos if you can and test some out! Let me know how you get on :)

      Northeast, USA. Leica Boston is close. I plan on testing it out. The close focus and extra stop are big upgrades to consider. Thank you again.

    Another excellent video Jamie and love the conversation with Alex from Red Dot Camera!
    As someone already suggested would also love such a video for other focal length such as 28mm and 35mm.
    Also, not sure, if you have saw Gajan Balan latest video about vintage glas, but since Red Dot Camera has great access to these lenses, why not pick some of your favourites, do some test shots and also talk about it? :)
    And ... hell yeah to the full tour of Red Dot Camera!!!
    Btw still wonder about your good iPhone audio quality e.g. also in this video at the end :P :D - Do you just hold the phone up or is there an external mic?

    Couple of suggestions. New to the channel and this showed up. The videography is excellent. Please turn the music off when chatting. I understand you guys look really similar to Red Dot Forum channel but perhaps doing this in the field or at a park. But most importantly is turn off that music. Distracting and will tune out.

      @@artistwithcameras appreciate the feedback. I exported it with incorrect volume levels. Apologies and I hope there may have been a bit of fun in there. Red Dot Forum is great and we are not aiming to copy their style. Much more casual and Red Dot Cameras was around long before them so we are different to each other. Thanks as well for taking the time to comment and to be constructive in your criticism. Very helpful. Thank you. J

    None of these lenses will "transform your photography", nor will any lens from any manufacturer. What a ridiculous notion.

Yeah those bent over poses weren’t ideal but kinda pride ourselves on botching a few jobs and doing what we can with limited time as we have actual jobs and this is a hobby.
