Re: Leica M8/M9/X1 Picture Thread


The thread moves really fast! Great shots guys!

Ryan, great urban decay series, my favorite is the paint bucket shott.
jsrockit, I really like the two window shots.
Silken, nice boat shots - makes me long for summer
Joe, great street captures. I see you are enjoying SEP2. I really like your conversions but I\'d skip the generated frames.

My 75 Cron left for Solms today (broken aperture ring), but I grabbed a few last snaps with it before letting it go:



















However, I did not leave the camera store (where I left it to be sent to Leica) empty handed. Camera stores can be dangerous places. There was a 90 Cron (pre-ASPH) just sitting there, looking at me with it\'s big puppy dog eye..

Result:






Unfortunately it was already getting pretty dark outside so I only got off a couple of snaps:













Back at the office I also tried it out as a portrait lens on a colleague:







A funny thing with the lens - it\'s not 6 bit coded but the M9 thinks it is as there is a screw in the mount where the 6 bit coding would have been. The M9 thinks it\'s an 90mm Tele-Elmarit f/2.8. I compared a few different profiles including the one for the 90 Cron II and the 90 Cron AA but the Tele-Elmarit profile actually produced the best result. I had initially thought to eventually send it to Leica for coding, but it would seem it\'s not necessary.
