London, take two

Last roll from my recent visit to London, a delta 400, probably my favourite in the London series...

at the fish market again, with the M2

couldn't resist but taking the "old lady" at the fish market last saturday...
Now I think I'm addicted to the smoothness of its shutter

my new M2

I finally have in my own hands a piece of history, from 1966: it's been heavily used by its previous owners (I wonder who and where...), each of its signs has something to tell, but when it comes to shuttertime, it's an amazingly silent and smooth thing, as it's always been for more than 40 years...

here it is coupled with an Elmarit 90, even older than my M2, but that can still produce emotions, although of a low contrast kind.

one last thing: having no lightmeter when streetshooting can be FUN!
