Is Leica useful for commercial photography?

Let's just say that there are indeed many commercial photographers who use Canon and Nikon's SLR to create, but most of them use Canon 1Ds series and Nikon D digital series (such as D3, D3X, etc.). ). There are not many models like Canon 50D and Nikon D300. Only some small photo studios or commercial photographers who are really short of money use it. Most models like 50D 50D and D300 are bought by photographers, which are rarely used by professional photographers (but not excluded).

However, the most important reason why the above commercial photographers who use N and C use Canon and Nikon is that they are cheap! Canon Nikon's top SLR+commonly used lens, the total price will generally not exceed RMB 6,543,800+(because commercial photographers generally don't use expensive super telescope lenses). It is also 654.38+10,000 yuan, which is less than the average price of a medium format digital back (excluding those indicators that are backward in production).

Rich commercial photographers usually like medium format cameras. It can be said that medium format is the mainstream of commercial photographic equipment. There are two schools: film, medium format and digital. Most of the films used are Hasselblad's, and there are also Kangteshi 645, Lu, Pentax and Meizai (because Pentax and Meizai are cheaper), but most of them are Hasselblad's, just like one of Hasselblad's most classic models, the 503CW. There are many choices in digital pages, such as Hasselblad H, Freescale, Pentax and so on. Originally, Litu and Shanna used Lulai fuselage, but Lulai closed down in recent years.

After talking about the equipment of commercial photographers, let's get down to business and talk about the equipment in the film. It's common to shoot portraits with Hasselblad. Because portrait photography is also an important part of commercial photography, it often needs high-quality printing, so Hasselblad's middle frame is very necessary. In short, Hasselblad's medium-sized pictures are actually widely used, and the most commonly used are landscapes, portraits and merchandise photography. However, due to the rapid development of digitalization in recent years, there are fewer and fewer photographers who use medium format like 503CW, and many people turn to autofocus and automatic exposure of medium format like Hasselblad H.

As for commercial photographers working with Leica M, it is really rare. Leica M is mostly used for documentary photography, humanistic photography and tourism photography. However, because Leica is deeply loved by photographers, Leica M has strong playability and optical quality, so commercial photographers are likely to buy Leica M for snapshots, daily shooting and other purposes, but it is usually not used for work.
