I know this is a review of a Fuji X70, a digital camera! But bear with me. My approach is by no small part based on my experience with film and analog cameras.
The Leica M Edition 60 – or Leica M60 as it’s more commonly know – is seemingly one of most enigmatic cameras Leica have built, certainly digital cameras. In fact, it’s possibly one of the most unusual digital cameras built by any brand. It even raises an eyebrow from folks who haven’t the first clue about …
