Truely Inspirational, I too am turning 15 this year, and yes I definitely want to become a Photographer just like you. I got handed a camera at 13, I never put it down, I am hoping to one day earn my very own Leica <3 , Thankyou for Inspiring me!!!
Hasselblad is great camera, they are bigger and harder to load than a Leica. Having said that some photogs will only shoot Blads. Once you get the hang of loading them you shouldn't have a problem. It is all about what you want to shoot and how, I can't answer that for you. Blads and Leica are the very best, can't go wrong with either. All the best!
Jonathan, sorry to disappoint, I'm still and will continue to shoot film. Eric Clapton hasn't given-up playing an acoustical guitar in favor of just the electric guitar. Most of my commercial work is digital but the personal work is still and will remain film. I want to have and keep a negative. Try as you might, when you hold a DVD up to the light you don't see an image. All the best!
Film is magical and the darkroom is total escape. Calm and Creative.
Your work is inspiring and I will try to see much more of your work.
There is something very close to a Soul in 35mm film, a daring one handed grasp of the reigns to steer the exposure home and to do it within the sweet spot of tolerance for the film used.
Wonderful work, and I am not just referring to the video :)
I have a Leica M3, which I mostly use with a Zeiss Planar 50mm 1:2. I'll have to admit, I did need sometime to adjust to the rangefinder world (as I 'grew up' using an OM-1) but once you keep a Leica in your hands, there truly is not a way back.
Socrates, you are probably the last person on earth who thinks that...I would have though a great thinker like "Socrates" would know better. Go to any of the museums around the would, Paris, Rome, Berlin, London, America, etc., and go in and look at their collections of "craft photography."

I have just cried..... so beautiful.... such passion ... I think I have just fallen totally and helplessly in love with you David Spielman. Creativity and passion and the ability to articulate so beautifully.... Thank you for this wonderful video..... and for your creativity and spirit... Long may you wander and record lifes beauty...... ✿ܓ Լღvє ✿ܓ
Tristambeow... For the record, what is your point, impress me with images, not your grocery list of equipment, please. So Steinway pianos and Martin guitars, analog anything is "sentimental hogwash?" There are many out there who will disagree with you. Maybe your to young or I'm to old to know for sure but I will let my work, books, sales and assignments speak for me. All the best! David
...and another thing—all this cutsie new agey music is an insult to leica. if you really want to be classy, play some debussy or ravel...maybe some satie.
for the record, i have four leicas; 2 m3s, 2 m6s, a mamiya 7, a contax t3, a nikon f, canon f1, nikon f3 and 7 others...but my canon 5d with all my L primes blows these out of the water. all this film worship is sentimental hogwash
@tristambeow romance can bring inspiration that you otherwise would not have had..... i smiled when i sold my canon dslr and with that money i bought a leica m4-p it feels right shoots right and stimulates me to do more,
@buettstube Thanks for the note, you are right, it doesn't mater. What kind of trumpet did Miles Davis play, his style and genius came through even though we don't know the maker of his horn. I can assure you he used the best. So, having said that I use Leica because I think it is the best, best lenses, best design and most importantly best for the type of photography I do. Good shooting and always strive for the best and to be the best!
Airkid, glad you liked my work, I'm sorry I don't know the name of the piece of music but if you write Phin Percy the videographer his email address appears at the end, I'm sure he can tell you. Again, thanks for your note.
Seon:Thanks for your note and e-mail. Tough questions...Leica vs the other cameras. The short answer is, it doesn't really matter what type of camera you use. For example do you know what type of type writer Ernest Hemmingway used to write his great books? Of course not, it doesn't matter. The camera is a tool, it is your visual voice that is important. My visual voice comes through better with a Leica, that may not be what works for you. Keep shooting I like your work! All the best David
Thank you, in some ways it does feel like an ad for Leica but who says that's a bad thing Leicas are amazing tools and a tool must inspire confidence in the artist. I am 26 and I grew up on digital mostly but I like to shoot 1:1 but full frame DSLRs never inspired confidence for me in street and art photos. I borrowed an M6 from a friend and I was hooked, now I am saving for the M7.Maybe I can get an M9 in a couple years when the price drops, but the film Leica gives many 1:1 DSLRs a run around.
ayayalmighty: Simply, I want and try to capture events. They may be simple and everyday or sometimes they might be more important. I don't know what will become historical. The really good photo-journalist just shoot what is going and and what is happening in their lives. Many have assignments to cover critical events, wars, disasters, etc. I do some of that but mostly I try and photograph what is around me and what interests me. I do want others to see what I see and feel.
Very inspiring video! I can't help but watch if over and over again. You say around 2:05 that your aim is to capture moments that should be recorded; in accordance with that do you go out and capture historic moments like a photojournalist? Do you photograph for more intimate reasons or to allow others to see your work?
"One is not right and the other wrong, their just different." You have no idea how nice it is to hear someone with that opinion. My friends still think I'm crazy for using my rangefinder when I have a perfectly good digital camera. They don't seem to understand that, for me, the excitement of going home and developing the film is half the enjoyment. People should chose based on what they enjoy using. Love this video :)
So, keeping with you logic, writers who write longhand or even with a type writer are also stooges? Painters who don't use computers are dumpster divers of the past?
Photography isn't only one type of camera or technology, but many, left to the individual to choose and use how ever they want. I can only imagine your naive observation come from knowing little about art and art history.
andysnap, Please remember Eric Clapton doesn't only play with an electric guitar, he uses both acoustic as well as electric. Please continue to shoot both. All the best and good shooting
ZoneIII, let me assure you these are my words and there is no endorsements from Leica but yes a heart felt endorsement of Leica. Certainly I offer high praise for their equipment, as it let's me expand my vision and allows me to shoot quietly. The reason the Leica gets the mention is that the range finder is special and so different from a SLR, small, quiet and isn't overpowering. Leica's optics are simply the best. You are correct it is a tool but oh what a tool!
Excellent video! My only problem with it is that it really appears to be a testimonial for Leica cameras. In fact, it looks exactly like it might be a Leica ad. Even so, David is obviously a fine photographer and, as a film photographer myself, I appreciate the fact that he chooses film too. But the tool (the camera), let alone the brand of tool is.... well, just a tool. Most photographers do not spend much time extolling the virtues of the brand of tool they use.
Rorrt, thanks for you thoughts. "if art isn't provocative" isn't that is what Degas is saying, it doesn't matter what the producer of the art thinks but what it get the viewer to think and feel about it. Opens their eyes, mind and head. I don't think art is only about shocking the viewer, that is to easy. Getting someone to ponder and explore is a greater challenge. Art is simple and can be very complex!
hear hear. Shocking is all too easy you're right, and is seemingly being used more and more as a way of getting noticed. Good to hear from a true man of the old school style of photography and art in general.
Really good little documentory, i myself am a student studying photography and find the analogy of film vs digital as being absoloutly perfect. Althought it goes about existential towards the end.
Though i do disagree with that art is, i think Brian Hugh Warner sums it up perfectly with "If art isnt provokative, is entertainment at best".
My favourite vid on the whole of YouTube! Many thanks for your efforts in making this, in a relaxed mode you have poured out your soul and inner feelings on why you love photography and importantly why you use a Leica.
Love my M6 ..... but really LOVE my M2 much, much more. Again, many thanks for your inspiration!
Thanks for the note! I always carry three lens, 35mm, 50mm, 135mm. That really covers every thing I need to do. I also keep two bodies in my bag as well. My gear is always with me. All the best....
what lens do you use most often? If I were to carry it around the streets taking pictures of buildings, people, and cultural activities, and I want to travel light with one or 2 lens, which ones would you recommend?
Nice hearing from you, No, Leica didn't sponsor the film. I've been shooting Leica's for over thirty years, they are a very important part of how I see and think about images. Equipment should be an extension of your eyes, mind and hands. In my work less is more. All the best!
Brilliant David - Very well executed! Love you view of the world! Would love to get in touch... Your words describe a very similar experience to my history of photography
This is a beautiful little clip David. Your work is wonderful. I love the Musee D'Orsay image. That is one of my favorite museums. It's funny how many of my clients gravitate to my M6 images when I mix them up with the digitals. I think shooting film in addition to digital makes me a better photographer in general. Reminds me of the importance of pressing that shutter at the right moment.
Many thanks for this movie. I'am street shooting also with my Leica partner, and feel exactly the same quiet atmosphere walking, and being part of the street with it. Couldn't show till this movie ... Well done, and thanks again
Thank you for your kind words. I'm traveling to Paris today, where are you from? Go to my web site and write giving me your e-mail address. More later, David
so, so good vid! everything what david spielman says about leica, i feel exactly the same.. it is totally different from dslr-shooting, and i also shoot with dslr, but.. when i am on the road with my leica, everything feels different... THX for posting this vid!
