Review on GFX100s 35mm mode:

I love tilt screeens, hate the fixed ones... Finally Leica caught up with other camera sensors and pdaf but I guess the lens is too big to af quickly, similar to RX1R II. Overgaard have the review with other Leica camera photos.... I like Jono's review as he is the official Leica tester (he...

From PhotonsToPhotos: Photographic Dynamic Range (PDR) of M11 compared to Leica M10

https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/leica-m11-initial-review "The M11's shutter blades are open much of the time, allowing the main image sensor to be used for metering. They quickly swipe across the sensor when exposure is initiated (in mechanical shutter mode, at least)."

I think so. I didn't read it fully, but why is it full with his own advertisement and m10P/SL2 photos instead of M11 photos that is expected in a review.... Kai also released the M11 video yesterday and put a password for access later...

There was an invitation to the Leica stores for 13th... It looks like everything leaked other than Leica selected user reviews.... I am sure Jono and others will post the reviews... https://leicarumors.com/2022/01/10/leica-m10-r-vs-leica-m11.aspx/

RX1R II is nice for people shooting, but wide angle shooting at my travels is also my problem with RX1R II... Q2 solves that problem, but I even went lighter with Canon G1X III attached on my belt for casual shooting on my last vacation. However, the long end @ f/5.6 is slow with G1X III...

As Matt said I don't see much difference in your shots btw SL2s and M10. Sl2/Q2 files are much bigger without lossless compression (not processing but more storage problem for me)... Q2 is same size as M10, not compact camera, but much smaller than SL2s (same size as my old Canon 5D dslr). Q2...

Great capture of Lucy's expression!

Enjoy the new camera. For af lenses, I recommend all the Sigma dn L mount lenses, which are same as the Sony versions. Panasonic has also some good glass too...

It looks like new 26MP version is coming out, maybe using the Fuji-Sony apsc sensor: https://pixii.fr/new-pixii-camera "Pixii now integrates a new miniature display that projects key information directly into its optical viewfinder. For the first time in a rangefinder camera, Pixii lets you...

I like the Avenon (Kobalux) 28mm f3.5 ltm better than Voigt 28mm f1.9 and Minolta 28mm f2.8 with Sigma FP. Avenon is good with the digital sensors including Sony esp when you stopped down to f8. It is very small and has high vignetting wide open. I learned it from a Japanese photographer. The...

Jono's review: Leica 35 Summicron M

Yes, I guess he solved some of your woes:) I skimmed through his review and it took a while... I don't comprehend how much time he spent doing all the tests plus putting it together... He missed the new CV apo lens so he should do it one more time:)

So who is buying the M-10P Reporter? Only 450 pieces were released and it comes with Kevlar cover for $8,795.... I guess M11 will be further away as Leica has not started the M10R special editions.... Leica M10-P 'Reporter' | Red Dot Forum

Maybe Leica didn't see the m4/3 future based on their sale of 4/3 cameras, not many released... All PanaLeica lenses are Panasonic produced with Leica QA/QC procedures with some consulting maybe... I remember the Panasonic add from 2008 stating that... Sony / Zeiss relationship is very similar...

Not related to CL, but if you have time, I recommend also below video: "Special Holiday Stream: LEICA NERD TALK (feat. a bunch of millionaires!)". It is good discussion with street photographers who ended up with a Leica (film or digital) and has different experience levels: Also Leica is...

Color is subjective and changes with every camera even with same camera manufacturer as Ad said... It is same with even Leica's as I used CL, SL2, Q2. I know last Q2 firmware is supposed to correct Q2 colors which had bleeding reds in my old LR 6 and I know it took a while to get it right raw...

That was my favorite lens on Canon 5D. It has very smooth bokeh: w_MG_1280.jpg by Serhan Button Samurai by Serhan

Bastian's review: Review: TTArtisan 50mm 1.4 - phillipreeve.net

Yes, flaring is the common theme with the Chinese lenses... There is also onion ring bokeh, otherwise it has nice bokeh.... I am more interested in the new CV 50mm 1.5 II due to its size similar to ZM 50mm 1.5, but it is more expensive than older used CV or ZM lenses. It is also priced $200...

I don't see problem using LTM lenses on CL. From Jono review he said CL works better with M lenses than Fuji cameras due to its sensor stack... Also you can choose a similar Leica M profile with CL to correct some of the lens problems. However APSC cuts most of the problem areas of the older...

Maybe Jason can contact Leica rumors to post there also for exposure... I saw the Kolari ccd repair in Leicarumors: Kolari Vision is now repairing corroded Leica M9 CCD sensors for $1,000 - Leica Rumors Also, Leica M9 Sensor 'Corrosion' Due to Dumb Design Decision, Report Claims

I see that S5 lost some of IBIS magic for videos in comparison to S1 series, eg smaller size with smaller IBIS maybe... Sony is coming up with smaller FF A7C with IBIS next week but no rf vf, only evf of course:

Are you buying? Size is similar to Zony 55mm. The photos looks good... A little softer on color ones (maybe wide open) vs B&W portraits stopped down.... It looks like SA might be the reason which is similar to CV 1.2 lenses but with less fringing on this one...

You can check Jono's review: Leica C-Lux I use TZ200. I like it as it has good range and a small size plus 1" sensor. Negatives are slow lens and the lens may not be the sharpest eg compared to RX100 VI. You can see below that I even shot U2 concert with it (ISO 3200-good lens IS)... EVF is...
