Looks good Nicholas - congrats on the new camera! Do you notice much, if any, difference processing the files compared to the M240?
A discussion with Stefan Daniel and Jesko von Oeynhausen by David Farkas:
Exclusive to M10? You talked about the sensor being made for M lenses. The M8 and M9 sensors had offset micro lenses towards the edges. The M240 went with a new conical micro lens design to catch the high incident angle light and focus it into the pixel well. Does the M10 sensor use one of these approaches?
Stefan: Yeah, we used similar techniques, but the M10 sensor is a more refined version using the latest technology and pixel architecture.
Did Leica have a hand in terms of designing that micro lenses structure?
Stefan: Yes, a big part.
How is the corner performance in terms of any kind of color shifts?
Jesko: That’s kind of behind us because we calibrate all the color performance for every lens. We already did a very good job on M (Typ 240).
The M240 was definitely an improvement over the M9.
Jesko: Yes. We improve from generation to generation, but I think there’s nothing that had to be improved compared to M 240 from the end users’ results. But I can tell you if you’re interested. If you look at the RAW files, the uncalibrated RAW files, from certain lenses that are critical, they have much less color shift or other issues, so the sensor is really solid. For users, it’s still interesting if they use Voightlander lenses for example. They might be much more usable now with this camera.
Stefan: Maybe we shouldn’t say that… *laughing*
