I haven&#8217;t been giving my Leica love recently mostly because it&#8217;s a bit of a pain to use, bottom loading, cutting the film leader, making sure there&#8217;s enough tension so that the sprockets catch. But after some choice words I managed to load up a roll of classic Kodak Plus-X and hit the streets.
