left eyed leica

1) Leicavit film advance, or its off-brand version, Abrahmson Rapidwinder (www.rapidwinder.com)
2) the M Motor.

this way, the camera stays at your left eye, and your right hand shoots while your left advances the film below. No need to move the camera away from your face for your right thumb to advance the film.

well worth it.

the world looks brilliant compensated for those people who think/make/manufacture things for the “rest of the world” ;)))))…or maybe that’s what makes the work odd :)))…

now, if they made the body for less than a year’s worth of my salary, i’d be in :)))

cheers

honestly, no pun intended.

i think on leicas, ben, you might be able to just get one of those viewfinder deals on top of the camera. sorry, i use canon so i haven’t a clue to what they’re called. but since it’s above the body, you’d be able to open your right eye and be just fine? plus, they can be used to give frame lines for certain lens’, i believe?

once i buy my future m7, i’ll probably know a bit more than nothing.

i always shot left eyed with slr’s but shoot right eyed with a rangefinder. although i switch back to my left eye when shooting verticals, its all about resting against the face without nasal interference.
