Available darkness

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread

Kristian once started a regarding the capabilities of the 35 lux to capture available light.
This shot was taken using a simple Leica table tripod with a M6, 35cron, f/2.0, 1/8s and Superia 200.
It was relatively dark in the room, with only two small lights on. I think the tripod is excellent, it is light and easy to carry around, stable and versatile.

Eric, take 300 more along the same theme. Edit the hell out of them & repost the best of the lot. Shots at 1/8th are not that uncommon.

Only 300?
Point taken Patrick...:-)

If you add a quiuck release plate such as the Kirk to the camera you can do this a lot easier as the ttt does not have to stick out at such a large and awkward angle. Also you can do verticals much easier. I cannot live without my ttt and quick release. I have the almost the same success with my R6.2 on the ttt as I do with the M6.
