The M-P 240 is a great option in 2024, and it’s having a resurgence now for people wanting Leica rangefinders and seeing the price of a new M11 or used M10 or M10R The M10 is probably the sweet spot in terms of “ all round’ use but the M-P 240, imo, is the pivot point of Vibe, fun, image, resolution, affordability and it’s just about modern enough to keep up for considered photography. I think this camera is great for anyone wanting an old school Leica experience at a reasonable price. Oh and put it in black and white mode and enjoy the B&W this camera puts out.

Just watched 2 videos from this channel and the way he approaches storytelling is just so nice and calming. Would love to see more content.

Great images! Love the hair salon shots!

I'm surprised by how well the foldable performed. I keep seeing low profile mechanicals being used (like nuphy 60-75) for travel but am skeptical on the portability for a tablet setup

oooh! I'm gonna try that foldable keyboard!

Awesome video man! Very helpful info!

This is awesome. Keep at it!

The Sony 16-55 2.8 is def worth it since it sort of dips in the wide angle territory. Yes the lens is heavy, but in effect you get images that are sharp across the frame even in the corners. To most people just starting out tho, the sigma 18-50 2.8 is enough.

Yo this video helped a lot. Thank you for showing the mixam web app for arranging the pages! I wasn't really sure about ordering the pages correctly for the cover and this helped me quite a bit.

I'm starting work on a zine to print with Mixam, designing in InDesign. Can you talk about if you did anything different for the cover pages? Where did you put those in the page order?

Yo bro your vlogs look amazing! I'm thinking downgrading from the A7iv to the a6700 soon was all of this footage straight out the camera or you used a lut?

How can I buy one?

Very cool!

Do you think macbook pro 14inch m1 pro 32gb ram 512gb can render 4k 10bit 422 xavc s or hs video without proxy? I'm planning to buy this

Keep it up

А это обзор первой a 7ii?

Это потрясный выпуск что тут сказать

Nothing wrong at all with using this camera body in 2024 and beyond! 😊

What’s included in 1 round of revision? How many changes is in 1 revision?

I got a Canon 5D3 for a very long time. I got M-P 240 7 years ago, and I never really used it ...... but recently I started to learn how to use it, and it was fun. I'm using a 35mm lens, and I have a question, how could I find some good 35mm photos for learning?

Thank you very much for this video! I was going to buy an NT5 but I saw from your video that it really isn't the sound I want for voice.

thank you for this! I love my 240 and I will use it until the shutter gives up. and even then, I might have it repaired!

Congrats on your first zine! It looks great and really like how you put this review together 👏

awesome, what way are you editing the Raws? are you using a preset ?

solid review....beautifully done...thanks....

Thanks for this video! I have M-P 240 and been shooting many personal projects with it. Lately I've been thinking if should upgrade and get the M 10 or 11. After seen your video I decided not to upgrade but keep my 240 and use the money for creating new photo projects.

I believe the shutter drop is due to the focal length multiplier for shutter combined with gating the ISO fairly conservative. I have ISO max at 6400 and my auto iso shutter set to 1/500 to 1/250 (nyc street is FAST ha) and it never dips. But yeah, M240 is my long term camera purchased in 2024 as well. Its honestly pretty perfect. I get why people need more but those of us who don't are pretty lucky- cause this camera is a joy!

I often use Xavc HS 420 10 bit 30mb , it can take a hard grade and again looks similar to 422 or S-I

Thank you for your detailed performance reporting based on actual, real-world usage of the A6700. I, too, believe this is an outstanding camera value for any family or amateur photographer, especially if you're just starting out. You're getting essentially the very latest Sony technology from even their higher level full frame cameras in terms of auto-focus, picture and video quality and colour algorithms, etc. In short, you're basically getting an A7V, but with a crop sensor and only 1 card slot. As an amateur photographer who has had an A6000 since 2014, I can tell you that with APS-C, you are missing the full frame look and the higher level of detail and resolution that I regret not having for my travel pics, particularly of landscapes, having made use of the panoramic function especially. In short, for video and sharing pictures that will always be viewed on a monitor or TV, the value proposition of the A6700 can't be beat. The fact that you can also get incredible bird photos, due to the inherent additional crop factor of APS-C, and the availability of excellent telephoto lenses like the Sony FE 200-600 (full frame), makes this especially good for that. But if you want to take pictures that you might want to blow up and print to put on your wall, you will want an full frame format camera. I'm currently considering moving up to the Sony A7c II to get a full frame camera in a similar sized camera body to my A6000, but with the BIONZ XR processing chip in the A7RV/A6700. I think this will be my ideal camera for a while.

I read the title of your video and I realized that my need and desire to go out with my camera was my way of taking care of my mental health. When I don't spend time on the weekend filmmaking I feel like I'm still carrying the weight of all past weeks stress into the next week. But after spending time shooting with my camera, I feel inner peace and ready to take on the next week. Last weekend my time was spent doing things for my family. Sunday night I realized that everyone was happy because their needs were met but I was still feeling stressed and not at peace with myself. I realized that I must take time to care for myself.

Can't wait to see it in person!

Maybe it’s time to use the a6700 more ahaha

There is overheating in photography? I want to use this camera for 2 or 3 hour sessions with street photography. Thank you for your answer, great video.

Oh snap it's Suki ❤‍🔥

Great video, do you have a workflow for slog 3 in a6700? Thanks

This is super similiar to how I eq my xm8500, especially in the top end. I would say your bass boost is too much, just leave the high pass on and 214hertz dip. The bump it creates already acts as a boost to the ear. You can set the Q differently to raise the bump closer to 0db, but not more then that. (not a professional) You are wrong about the human voice however lol. Bass voices typically go down to 80 hertz, and 54 hertz is common for low bass's. But some low bass singers go down to like 30. The bulk of my regular talking voice is around 75 As far as I know you want to watch the equalizer graphic and see where the first low end bumps are when you talk. The center of that is where you make the dip. And high pass everything before your lowest bump

I jusst bought my first Sony camera, and your video popped out on my feed! Thank you so much, it was so helpful and easy to comprehend!

M240/ VM 35 Ultron ii have the same combo. At 67 I see the power of limitation. Like Bruce Lee said, "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."

I really love your content and perspective. It's a breath of fresh air. Please continue to share your thoughts because your ideas unlock something for me. Cheers!

Love this video! had the MP-240 for a while and now have an m262 with 28mm summicron. kinda miss the 240 tho haha. How do you get things in focus that are farther away, but not necessarily infinity? do you use the distance scale? always had trouble with that haha.

I've been a working photographer for 52 years and a Leica shooter for 35. Two years ago I sold my M8 and M9 and found a mint M-P Type 240 with less than 250 shutter actuations. I have gorilla hands and the camera fits me perfectly. For me it is the perfect camera. It's battery life is incredible, the images exquisite. I will never sell it. You made a very good choice. Cheers!

The M-P240 is my daily tool, and It was brand new, when I bought it some six years ago. I've a M240 too. The booth fit me as a press photographer. Enjoy your M-P 240 and keep on rolling!

i am in a quandary between the a6700 or the fuji x-s20. photo 60% video 40%. your thoughts?

Good video. M240 owner here and i love it.

Why my A7C doesnt have "stabilize clip" option? its greyed out... is there any setup that i need to do to activate the gyro data?

i used to do photo walks every night during lockdown (this was when restrictions were kinda lifted with people allowed to go outside by themselves in 2021). my mental health improved a lot from the cardio, but i also ended up losing mad weight... like 45lbs 💀. i don't do them much anymore, but it really was therapeutic (i was surprised when my professor told us that the many therapist actually prescribe long walks now).

"Promo SM"

im getting this as my first camera and cant decide if i should get the sony 16-50, sigma 18-50 or the sony 18-135?

Thanks for this video! Photography used to be a dear hobby of mine, but I hardly do it anymore… It often feels like there are so many other things to do. But you definitely inspired me to grab my cam and go on a photo walk! 🙃

If that is not a camera you are enjoy to use, whitch one is?
