| Digital Leica M8 / M8.2 / M9 / M-E /Mono / M10 aka "M" Discussions about the Leica M8 /M 8.2 / M9 / M9-P/ M-E / M Monochrom / M10 aka "M": Leica digital M mount rangefinder cameras. Naming the new digital M the "Leica M" is VERY unfortunate as it will only confuse newbies with other Leica M cameras of the the past. Happily there is room for confusion with only the past 59 years of Leica M production ... since Leica introduced the Leica M system in 1953. All Hail for the Leica Marketing Department learning Leica M history! |

Probably the best shot I've gotten with my M9, and actually appeared in the NY Times last year
Shot with the 35/1.7 Voigtlander (probably at around f/2 @ 1/15th), and I think the ISO was 400.

Have you seen the preset system in Lightroom? It can be set to apply a certain preset such as BW or film look to any RAW files during import. The beauty of this is that you can recover more data and even from BW to colour if you change your mind later.
Makes sense if you were going to edit your photos anyway. I shoot RAW + basic jpg in black and white for this reason.

I only started shooting RAW with the M9 and it is amazing. My first surprise was that after importing there were all these beautiful pictures instead of the 1s and 0s for processing that I had been expecting. I went to a formal dinner where the lighting was either blue or red spotlights. This was terrible so I set up the camera for RAW plus JPEG fine Black and White and that was what the monitor displayed. Much more palatable. What I discovered later was that the M9 black and white jpegs are not only clever and often very good, but indeed they were so clever that I could not easily produce the same effect myself from the RAW file. This was particularly so for the grey hair of an older colleague, rendered beautifully in the JPEG. So I have fallen in love with the tonality and lovely blacks of the M9 JPEGs and have been using them quite a bit.
