I went on a photowalk with my friend Andrew today and got to try a really old Leica lens that he found in a thrift store recently. It was a Leitz Hektor 135mm f/4.5 and was probably made in the 1950s.
It’s remarkable how I can just attach this nearly 70 year old lens to my Leica M10, a modern digital camera made just a few years ago. I’ve read how Leica M maintains compatibility with the oldest products but today I got to try out. It just works!
Focusing was a bit tricky to start but I got the hang of it after a few photos.
Then I had to start “seeing” with this long focal length. That took a minute. I’m used to a 35mm or 50mm lens and this is very different.
Got some okay photos. I had no expectation to start composing anything worthwhile with this in an hour.
Can’t go wrong with a store window selfie though ð

My second trial of Apple Music is coming to an end.
Still doesn’t feel like it is worth the switch from Spotify, so I will be cancelling. Also, as a result I have still no need for Apple One.
