  • wow didn't know that! perhaps its the October announcement ?
  • useful, thanks
  • thanks I would go for the latest product if there was a real detail or dynamic range increase, but probably not more for more functionality Interesting that you think its better then the A77....
  • Bought a lovely 10-18mm f4 and a 35mm f1.8 as I managed to get a particularly good deal. Further getting the 24mm f1.8 and 50mm f1.8 appears to be the dream team. Anyone have different views ? (My...
  • This is effectively "inventing" detail where you have some idea of the reasons why that detail was not recorded properly.

    IMHO this is good for snaps but useless for serious photography as the...

  • Thanks They don't always, e.g. "The King Harry", "The Flask", etc However originally if the pub had two floors they names each floor differently, thus the two named ones. rgds
  • Replied in Leica X Vario
    its an exceptional camera and calls into question the point of carrying around mutiple primes if the light is anything except aweful
  • A real pleasure - a zoom as good as primes ?   Shopping blackout Into the zone Down and out and up and coming Graffiti Anchor and a lot of hope   Best rgds
  • I can't say that definitively perhaps some. I think the last firmware was published July 2011
  • M8 is ASP-H Actually after extensively using the X-Vario, a wonderful camera, IMHO its build and design lends it to be a good base for a design of a compact high quality APS-C sensor size...
  • I was also in the Argentinian embassy which was nicer but they didn't allow me to take pictures :(
  • There is no difference in the firmware I had a ME but now have a M9 It's just advances in Lightroom.
  • You mean they responded in advance ;) leica might go the other way, ie. an interchangeable APS-c camera
  • This is a great description: http://blog.kasson.com/?p=2724 All ISOs higher then the base are merely amplifications. Basically the signal to noise ratio above 640 of the amplifier is doing more...
  • It's interesting that I hear capture one, which was originally bundled with the M9, is very good. I might get round to trying it. in terms of CCD vs CMOS Sean Reid's comparison of the M240 and M9...
  • Created discussions M9 ISO Performance - New Life
    Yes I know this has been a much discussed topic and most of the talk has shifted to the M240, however Lightroom since version 3.6, boosted again by 4 has made the M9 good at 2500. Of course the...
  • the improvement of LR has led the improvement of the M9, since the camera doesn't do much and the cpu is slow LR above 640 actually does a better job then the camera, so 640+push 2 stops is better...
  • Replied in I love my M9
    Subject and contextAlways important for meRgds
  • Replied in I love my M9
    That's because Lightroom has improved Seriously I can take excellent pictures at ISO 2500 Or even better at 640 and push three stops or more. basically your computer is more powerful then the...
