related. i broke my m11 and am back to (happily) shooting with my og monochrom. what a wonderful camera.

2024-04-29 03:45:26

over covid i shot with a hassleblad 907x. I eventually sold it and got an m11. Shooting with the 907 pushed me to emulate the old 500 style square shot. My shots seemed to turn out better when i was thinking in squares. I now love square crops of my m11 shots. I am addicted
