104/365 Christmas Carol
Day 104
(Explored #3 :D Thanks!)
I'm sorry for today's semi-lackluster photo-- yes, yet another Christmas themed one. But the whole point of today's photo isn't about the photo, but rather the camera. I can imagine your eyes swinging to the EXIF on the right. Yep, a Leica M9. First off, no it's not mine, I just happened to get my hands on one for a few days to experiment with. You see that crazy depth of field? That's the work of ƒ/0.95 You saw that right. Zero point nine five. Apparently, this Leica M9 is equipped with a 50mm ƒ/0.95 lens. That's insane, in my opinion. Honestly though, as great as this camera is, it isn't a practical one. But it is German.
In other news, thank you for viewing my photos, as I got two front pages today! :D I really appreciate it :D
Oh, and the title. As cheesy as all the songs sound, I actually like Christmas songs.
(Disregard the EXIF, I don't know why it says f/1.4)

I've heard about these Leica Noctilux lenses. Insane aperture and insane price! Thus an insane shot, Brandon! :-)

:o) cute shot and great focus... and it got Bokeh too... yeah! ;o)
I am so jealous right now... I would love to try a M9 together with that lens (or any other of the summilux lenses). Sweet. But as you said it is a completely different way of shooting then with a DSLR.
