Hi Philippe!
Thank you. :-)
High ISO's are necessary when using the f6.8 Telyt. Even wide open, it's
a "bright day" lens, unless you've got a monopod and high ISO film.
Even on a reasonably bright, fall day, at ISO 3200, the woods were dark
enough that wide open, the shutter speed was 1/100th of a second! It's
no wonder that only one of four shots were truly sharp, even using the
shoulder stock!
But the LeiCanon is a joy to use... and despite some people's complaints
that there is a lot of 'noise' in such photos (and, they are right)
there is still a lot less problem from 'noise' than there would be from
'grain' in a similar speed film!
I hope your Christmas wish comes true!
