Really enjoyed reading this, thanks! 1/15th is my favourite speed (digital, with a 25mm lens) - I just love the blur.

Loved this. I thought I had paralysis in trying to get to one camera, one lens! Now take away most of the shutter speeds- what a challenge.

You're welcome, actually a copy but perhaps surpasses original!

Actually yes, specially for initial LTM series like the Leica iiia that has the focusing range finders window half an inch apart from the view finder. This Canon having the two windows already integrated into one, as the M series did later on, seems pretty revolutionary to me...

It also has 1x and 1.5x viewfinder magnification, kinda 90 and 135 mm. Not in mind at all to change its original 50, but good for sharp focusing

Really interesting exploration of shutter speed. I’ve not thought about 125 being in the between space, that’s something I’ll explore a little myself too
