Like many photographers, I was captivated by the concept of the Leica M11-D when I reviewed it – a beautifully minimalist camera that removes the rear LCD screen entirely, forcing photographers to shoot with intention, much like in the days of film. It's become my dream camera, the one I'm longing for but can’t afford.
Yet, as much as I love the idea of the M11-D, I realized that I didn’t need to own one to embrace its philosophy. Instead, I made a simple change: I turned off my camera’s rear screen completely. In doing so, I unintentionally cured myself of "chimping" – a modern affliction that had been quietly holding back my photography for years.
