Greetings from Malaysia!

Hello all forum members,

Just realized that I have been posting without introducing myself.

I am still very new to photography. Started in 2007 with the birth of my first child and my first camera was a Nikon d200. As of a few weeks ago I bought my first film camera a leica m3 and before this had no experience at all about film. When I successfully loaded the film into the leica I was elated, it was to me a first step into the manual world. And then I realized that because I cannot see the shots that I have taken on the LCD there is a lot of anxiety on whether the shot was sharp or blur and the best was the excitement in waiting for the film to be develop. Felt like a child waiting for his presents. now my next project is to develop my own negatives. That is exciting.

I like landscapes and pretty much everything as well. I hope by joining this forum I will learn as much from all of you and forgive me if some questions sounds too basic or silly. Feels great to be here and learning a lot already.

Best regards,
Mark Lim
