Mitch, the weather changed so quickly that morning so I think there where many cases of "dåliga kläder" (bad clothing).
Werner, Mitch and Allen: I really have enjoyed your Monochrom contributions.
Edward, great work with the ZM 25
René, I like you moody images from that swiss village.
Charlie, I like that single eye in the first one. Almost a little scary
Michael, dramatic and well done b&w
Thanks for comments and likes. One last from that day, again M9 and 28 Summicron.

Continuing with another picture that may go into the second chapter of the Alone in Bangkok book project. (The link is for the 22 shots for the first chapter, which will be edited down to perhaps half that number — when looking at this series press the "L"-key to go tot the first picture, and the right-arrow key to navigate through the rest.)

Guys who have shot in snowy conditions, do you worry about snow getting in the camera (not weather sealed) or lens? How do you deal with snow drops on the lens? I'm relatively new to winter, and we're in the middle of a blizzard and wanted to shoot. But with very strong winds of 35mph winds, I chickened out. Boy, I gotta get used to winter here

p.1086 #13Leica M/X/T/S/Q/CL/SL Picture Thread
I don't. I just take care. Keep in under my coat until I am ready to shoot. Common sense.
And this winter not near as bad as last winter.

Yep - no worries about winter conditions.... I have used mine down to -37C with no issues aside from crummy battery life (which is expected). We have snow around here for 6 months of the year. If possible, leave the lens cap on for about 10mins once you step outside. Then your lens should be fairly cool which should help to avoid having the snow stick to the front. And also brush off any snow from the camera before you go back inside.

Allen - LOVE that shot. So awesome and love the deep black tones in this one. A feast for the eyes...
Edward - Looks like you decided to dust off the ZM25! Been loving your recent posts with this lens.
Joakim - Nice M9 shots. I like your previous posts on the last page too.....
Mitch - This one is definitely worthy of adding to your collection.
Just to lighten the mood a bit... I was at a hockey game last Friday and saw this guy a few rows in front of me. Everyone was laughing so hard. Gotta love someone with a sense of humour!
(with iPhone BTW)

Thank you very much Allen, Joakim, Gary! Much obliged.
Joakim, love the light quality, slightly somber mood, and the reflections on the wet pavement. Great shot!
Mitch, very nice indeed, especially the harsh gritty look. Awsesome!
Gary, that's very funny! I will consider doing the same in a couple of years, when my Franciscan monk style calvity develops a bit more

@xwing incredible 1st shot of the clock tower
@edward love the massage sales and the dark alley in next set; outstanding
@allen spooky hands
@Joakim gorgeous street shot
@Mitch wonderful grain
@chrislee. Lenses are very tight, camera is very tough. Pull it out of your jacket and shoot. Put it back. Keep soft microfibre in your pocket and dry the exterior when you are out of the weather, gently.

I think i have the focus more or less figured out. 1st two are WO.
Here at f/1.4 Poodle owner. Old Friend. He stopped for gas in Ely Nevada and the 2 poodles ran off. 17 days later they returned.

Great shots as always.
Edward, love the Bangkok shots, I will be traveling there for work and will have to get out and shoot a little bit.
Spent the day yesterday shooting near Fuji again, considering it is in my back yard it makes an easy day.
Cheers.

Best is once the camera and lenses have acclimatized to the weather. The snow won't melt and just gathers on the gear, so you can pretty easily brush it off, if desired. It's when it's around freezing and it melts that it causes a bit more of a mess. The M240 is well weather sealed, so shouldn't be a big concern. The lenses are all mechanical with pretty tight tolerances and the helicoid is well lubricated, so again, shouldn't be a big deal.
When bringing the gear back inside, leave it in the camera bag, or put everything in a plastic bag and let it slowly come back up to temperature, to avoid condensation buildup. Charlie probably goes through something like this every day. Or, just don't do anything special, at your own risk.
Bring extra batteries and keep them in an inside pocket so they stay warm. Last year I had recurring problems with the M9 eventually locking up and not letting me shoot more than one photo at a time (had to wait for it to write to the card before taking another shot), and sometimes even this was too much and it would shut down. Kind of spurred me to get the M240, but I suspect it was a combination of older batteries and refusing to upgrade to the latest firmware with better power management capability. But with the older batteries not working well in the cold, I suspect the camera would have shut down anyway.
A cell phone snap:
If you're using the camera (shooting a fair amount) the internals will stay relatively warm from all the electrical activity. Biggest annoyance I ever had (other than the battery problem with the M9) was snow blowing in the camera bag and onto the rear of the lenses (I don't use caps while shooting) and into the RF cam area where I couldn't get it out, so that when I was shooting up at all the pretty snow on tree branches, the heat of the sensor melted the snow stuck in the back of the lens, causing it to drip onto the shutter blades, and of course, then onto the sensor. But, taking a bunch of shots warmed up the sensor and evaporated the water. Along this line, I noticed every time I changed lenses that shortly afterwards images would look a bit foggy. Turns out the heat of the sensor warmed the air in the space between it and the lens so that with the moisture from the snow on the lens mount, there was enough moisture into the air to cause condensation to form on the rear element... Removing the lens and clearing out the warm moist air seemed to help.

Hi All,
A couple more from last night, decided to try a couple of panoramas with the M yesterday first time I every tried them with the Leica. Both are shot on the 90mm Summircon, from a tripod using the EVF. I hope these arent too big. Both are a series of vertical shots stitched together.
Thanks.
