Shooting my favorite Leica M6 / lens combo 🥳

After shooting a 35mm lens for a couple of months in the first half of this year, I finally switched back to my beloved 28mm Summicron when I went on my trip to Russia. I shot a video in Moscow with it and now my second time using it again on my Leica M6 was in St. Petersburg.
It's simply my favorite lens and that will most likely never change. I picked up the expired Fuji xTra 800 in Mexico earlier this year and I think you can see that it isn't fresh film, so I would assume that it wasn't properly stored in a freezer or at least a fridge. It's a film stock that I wish it would still be around brand new.
See you soon in the next one!

    WOW! The shot at 3:43 is not only the best from this episode by far as it is one of your best shots ever IMHO, absolutely nailed it, it's perfect! The mirror from the car adds that little extra touch that totally takes it to another level. From all the episodes by favorite shots are this one, the guy sunbathing in malta with the pigeon next to him and the man reading the newspaper in Korea (taken with the XPAN). Congratulations Robin!

    Hi, Robin! Another piece of wonderful work. Now, since I have the same setup as you do on the street, I’d like to know how you deal with exposure changes for these quick snaps, especially under harsh sunlight where exposure needs to be changed quickly moving from sunlit areas to shades?

    Hi Robin, I wanted to ask how do you prepare for a video. Do you look up routes on google maps or just decide that you want to shoot a specific area of a city? Do you use your phone for orientation during a shoot or just curiosity and a sense for good light? Thanks!
