It allows the use of flash equipment on Leica cameras without internal flash synchronization.

I am also very much interested in the history of the camera and the company. I have access to a wealth of information from numerous sources, thus it is often not very difficult to come across some interesting details that are not generally known.<br /><br />The lighting in these photos is nothing elaborate at all. I took them with the camera sitting on my desk. The desk is against a wall with a large window which offers soft window light. I highlight the shadow areas with a simple desk lamp with a warm white CFL lamp. The combination of daylight and the warm white light results in the mixture of warm and cold reflections.LEICA Barnack Berek Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055435560407011075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320126156594375642.post-87045264627940049952013-02-04T15:43:47.709-06:002013-02-04T15:43:47.709-06:00Interesting story.

I see a combination of warm and cold reflections on the camera. How did you achieve this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
