Photographic Notes

Today was my first chance to shoot with this collapsible Summicron 50mm
f/2 lens on my Leica M2. My normal 50 on this camera is a Hexanon-M
50mm f/2. Isn’t the Summi a beautiful piece of engineering? The M2 is
wearing a Mr Zhou half-case, now sold through cameraquest.com. Sitting
atop my Moleskine notebook.

Oh … did I mention I’m a lens junkie?

In addition to using my pocket-size ruled Moleskine for personal journaling, I use it to track my film photography. I record what camera body was loaded with what film and, when possible, the dates pictures were taken and maybe some exposure information. If they’re B&W shots, I later add which developer I used and the time/temperature of the development. My journal runs from front to back and my photo notes run from back to front. When they meet, I start a new Moleskine…"
