Night shoot with a Leica M 240
by Isi Akahome
Hi Steve,
I wanted to share photos from my latest shoot with the M240 and the 50 Summilux. We shot in Chinatown at night and lit the shoot with $100 LED light sticks from Amazon. I shot mostly art ISO 800-1000, so there was no noise, and I was able to shoot at around 1/160sec wide open at f1.4. The combo performed very well and using the rangefinder at night was not nearly as difficult as expected.

Great shots, but at full size the models face is really blurry in quite a few of them.
great shots!
Love the photos.
Good shots but if i may say there is a problem of highlights on the model face. It can be due to lightin but also because of the make up…. Tx for sharing
Excellent work. How far away from the model were the light sticks? And how many did you use?
Best regards

The sticks were just off the frame. I adjusted the distance based on the exposure.
I think you did a great job with these.
Thanks for sharing!
Nice shots and an cool idea to use a LED light… have to try too…
