Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Show Us Your Leica Kit - Round 3

13.8K views June 8, 2024 9:30 pm

Join Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas as they bring together two favorite topics: “What’s in Our Bag” featuring favorite gear of the Leica Store Miami team, and “Show Us Your Kit” where they react to user-submitted Leica kits.
They will comment and geek out, offering up suggestions for adding to, paring down, or making changes based on each setup. Or maybe just gush over some unique camera or lens that they wish they had. Plus, you'll get to see what our team is using this year.

How to Submit
=======================
Submissions are welcome before the livestream.

Briefly tell us about your kit, what kind of photography you're into, any challenges you're having or goals you want to achieve, and maybe some changes you're thinking about making.

Make sure to include a high resolution picture of your Leica kit - whether it’s a camera-in-hand shot of your favorite single-lens setup or a lay flat of your entire kit with accessories, snacks and all.

Images should be in JPEG format and at least 2000 x 3000px, or 6MP. If pictures are too low resolution, we can't use them. Remember, we broadcast in full 4K so we need all those glorious pixels.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: The Leica 50mm Summilux-M Lens Episode

22.8K views February 10, 2024 10:33 pm

This episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk is all about the 50mm Summilux-M. In 1959, Leica introduced the first Summilux-M 50mm f/1.4 lens, setting the bar for a fast aperture lens in perhaps the most classic of all focal lengths. Since then, we’ve been treated to five iterations, each with its own character and range of exotic and unusual special editions. Join Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas on a deep dive into the full history of Summilux-M 50mm lenses, from the very first 50 Lux to the latest 50mm ASPH v2 with close focus, with comprehensive image quality comparisons and insight into what makes each one unique. This is a deep dive you will not want to miss. Between extensive testing and live shooting, you'll be able to see which 50mm Summilux is right for your M kit.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask away live during the show, or email us ahead of time at youttube@reddotforum.com.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: The Bokeh Episode

14.5K views September 10, 2023 8:26 pm

In this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk, Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas are diving deep into bokeh. Often an enigmatic subject, bokeh is the rendering of out-of-focus objects in a photo and is influenced by a wide variety of factors. They'll discuss what makes 'good' bokeh and how lens choice, aperture and focus distance all contribute to a pleasing background. And of course, Josh and David have brought plenty of lenses of various focal lengths, maximum apertures and vintages to demonstrate live in the studio.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: The Leica 35mm Summilux-M Lens Episode

121.7K views December 10, 2022 10:53 pm

This episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk is all about the 35mm Summilux-M. Since its introduction in 1961, the 35 Lux has been the go-to lens for reportage and those needing an extra stop over the Cron. And while we've done an entire episode on all the 35mm M lenses (which you should definitely check out here if you haven't seen it yet: https://youtu.be/F2xWJhrIFrA), Leica has recently released two new additions to the 35mm Summilux family - the 35mm Steel Rim Classic and 35mm Summilux-M ASPH FLE II. We've got both of the new lenses, along with every single generation of 35mm Summilux, on hand so we can cover the history and show the performance of each one. This is a deep dive you will not want to miss. Between extensive testing and live shooting, you'll be able to see which 35mm Summilux is right for your M kit.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask away live during the show, or email us ahead of time at youttube@reddotforum.com.

In Part II, they'll pick up where they left off, offering up commentary and recommendations.

Submissions before the show are welcome, as are ones during the livestream. Send them to info@leicastoremiami.com with the subject line "Show Us Your Leica Kit". Briefly tell us what kind of photography you're into, any challenges you're having or goals you want to achieve, and maybe some changes you're thinking about making. And of course, make sure to attach a high-res picture, or pictures, of your Leica kit - whether it’s a camera-in-hand shot of your favorite single-lens setup or a lay-flat of your full setup.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: Show Us Your Leica Kit

21.4K views July 16, 2022 9:43 pm

Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas are taking a break from their usual role of show and tell. Instead, for this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk, we're asking viewers to show us their own Leica kits. The guys will comment and react, offering up suggestions for adding to, paring down or making changes based on each setup. Or, maybe just gush over some unique camera or lens that they wish they had.

Submissions before the show are welcome, as are ones during the livestream . Send them to info@leicastoremiami.com with the subject line "Show Us Your Leica Kit". Briefly tell us what kind of photography you're into, any challenges you're having or goals you want to achieve, and maybe some changes you're thinking about making. And of course, make sure to attach a high-res picture, or pictures, of your Leica kit - whether it’s a camera-in-hand shot of your favorite single-lens setup or a lay-flat of your full setup.

Red Dot Forum Camera Talk: A New Look at Old Favorites

19.2K views June 18, 2022 9:48 pm

The latest Leica gear always gets all the attention. The M11, Q2, SL2 and S3 represent the ultimate in performance and the latest in technology, yet many forget how incredibly capable their predecessors were...and still are. In this episode of Red Dot Forum Camera Talk, Leica experts Josh Lehrer and David Farkas will be giving these still-great cameras their proper focus. They'll be talking about the previous generation of Leica cameras, including the M10, M10-P, M10-R, M Monochrom 246, SL 601, Q 116 and S 007, and why these cameras remain solid choices in 2022. Join in the live chat to ask us live during the show or send questions ahead of time to youtube@reddotforum.com.
