The Leica M10 and M10-R look almost identical. Same M-body build, same manual-focus rangefinder experience, and the same Leica M lens mount. The primary difference is in the sensor. The original M10 uses a 24-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, while the M10-R increases resolution with a 40-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, but there’s more to consider than just 24 vs. 40 megapixels.
The Contax AX is an innovative 35mm film camera, combining professional SLR performance with a truly unique autofocus system that moves the film plane instead of the lens.

The Horseman SW617 Professional is a modular panoramic film camera that produces 6×17 cm negatives on 120 roll film. Often compared to the Linhoff Technorama 617 and Fuji GX617, the system supports a selection of Schneider and Rodenstock optics ranging from approximately 65mm to 180mm. We had the opportunity to run a few test rolls through a SW617 with a Rodenstock Grandagon-N 90mm f/6.8.
