Incredibly well. Ektar converts really nicely. Works best with Vuescan, but fine with epsonscan

Best money I've ever spent on photography software. By far and away the best film scan conversions for c41 color film.

The optical design is totally different - photos taken at equivalent apertures will be noticeably different.

Perfection is highly overrated.

Agreed. High technical performance but completely flat rendering.

Typical trump derangement syndrome ^

To simply look at some mundane test shots and say 'this camera doesn't show anything special in its technical performance and therefore isn't worth the expense' is the same as comparing a Toyota...

The expense is rooted in the experience, or the doing, not a singular and linearly measurable technical aspect (the image quality). As an experience, the Leica M philosophy is unmatched by any...

Unlikely - these comments are full of people that barely get past the spec sheet of their Sony's, Panasonics and LG's.

Yes, it's amazing. I've overexposed color negative 6 stops and still gotten scans with full range of tones and no clipping. Try doing this stuff with a digital camera...

Matt Granger was wrong when he said they were f4 - that's why I said he's not a good source for your opinions ;)
Do you really think you get that kind of bokeh in the corners of those 'f4' shots at...

I got some bad news for you swordman. The ones taken at f4 are actually f0.95. That's why they look a little soft. Either LR isn't interpreting metadata from the m10r properly or his lens coding...

Says the one stating the Noctilux shot taken at minimum focussing distance at f0.95 is proof that leica M cameras can't focus accurately, and that Sony's focus in .02 seconds lol.

He didn't miss focus. The DOF is so shallow 99% of the photo looks soft at f0.95 and minimum focussing distance. You don't get bitingly sharp bits at f0.95 - that's what it looks like in focus....

I actually just watched Matt Grangers review - the photos you’re referring to were shot at minimum focussing distance with a noctilux. If you didn’t know, the nocitlux is a 50mm f0.95 lens. The...

Loxia lenses are manual focus, and manual focus sucks on mirrorless, so your point is actually the moot one. Frankly, if you haven’t got some decent experience with a Leica M, you have no idea what...

Haha! Touché!

Honestly Pentax make a digital LX or k1000, and I'll buy two.
Electronic viewfinders are a simulacrum of optical viewfinders. They can never be as good in a pure sense, because they aren't real.

RF focussing is more consistent, and generally faster. Try zone focussing with your Sony - most of the lenses don't have hard stops. A zone focussed leica focuses faster than .02seconds - its...

Best camera system ever made for actually taking photos, not measurbating pixels on cat pics on forums.
