[…] for months, with an LCD screen that doesn’t work very well anymore. I’ll refer you to the blog post where I talk about it. Until now, I’d been putting up with this problem, which I consider […]

I’m a bit late to this discussion, but this is actually pretty cool Jeff! I can never really see my screen properly when I’m out shooting anyway, because I would need to change my glasses and it’s a pain to keep swapping. Having blocked out shapes and compositions only on the screen would work for me!

In reply to John Harper. At least you've got a viewfinder ! If my LCD is kaput, I don't have anything else. With mine disfunctionning the temptation to Chimp is close to zero. I just have a rough idea of what I've shot. Turning down your LCD on the Leica is a smart move. Sometimes we got distracted by the photos we 'ave already taken. It grabs our attention instead of staying focus on the streets. Anyway if I run into some confrontation on the streets, it would be funny to show the picture I made ! ;)

It’s “comical”, but seriously, I don’t dislike it. Photographers need a tool/camera they can trust, the basis of any relationship. My own I sometimes simply switch off, it gets stuck in some kind of buffer loop after taking a single shot. I never use continuous shutter because it would just blow up. My fear is it’ll be the time that I finally get a frame that I’ve been searching for. Imagine loosing frame 6 in your grid (hands, one on the post) or the waterfall shot. I’d cry. I thought about sending mine to “Chane-Mouye Camera Repairs”, having read this blog over the years I’ll take a chance and hope it keeps going without posting to Reunion!
