This camera has a beautiful exterior, and its operation has been thoroughly checked, so it is also recommended for beginners. Every part of the bulky top plate has a meaning, and the Barnack Leica exhibits a functional beauty like a "warship." Unlike today's digital cameras that are completed within the screen, all operations are physical. It's like steering the ship yourself. Adjust the exposure, measure the distance, frame the shot, and then shoot. There are no corrections or assists. If the exposure is off, it will be off. If the distance is wrong, it will be wrong. If it's blurred, it will be blurred. ──That's what's interesting. You really get the feeling that "I took this with my own hands." Why not experience the joy of freely operating the camera, just as a sailor handles their ship like their own limbs? The feeling you've forgotten in exchange for convenience will surely come back to life. 〜 Leica Treasure Market 〜
