    Just bought myself a brand new Leica X2

    A real oldie by now; why buy such a leftover today? Well, my friendly Leica dealer showed me one he had still left. As it happens, I had just given up on my old, beaten X1 that had lots of scars, and was of course glacially slow, but still that special image quality. I decided to give that...

    Reid Reviews - at last without that horrible Flash!!!

    Just got this mail from Sean Reid: "Today we introduced a major re-design of the Reid Reviews web site which is based on Html 5. It can be read on computers and many mobile devices (including the Apple iPad). The visual design is all new, the site is much faster, a search function is now...

    "Oh, BTW, I bought a Leica Monochrom yesterday…"

    …or something to that effect is what I have to tell my wife today...:poke: Full story: ever since taking advantage of Jono´s generous sharing of MM files to download and play with, I knew that I had to get one sooner or later. And, 3 days before Xmas, I saw that my dealer had got one in stock...

    A 2010 image to remember

    New year´s eve means the usual compilation of news images from the soon-to-be-expired year, and today´s morning paper had an entire section. But the one that really got me was the 2-page cover picture, by the Icelandic photographer Rakel Osk Sigurdadottir, of Iceland horses fleeing from the...

    LX-3 FW upgrade: will remember zoom and focus!!

    [Just posted in the LUF; can´t help myself from posting here, too...] Just read this in DPReview about the Version 2.0 firmware update for the LX-3: "...The lens position of zooming and manual focusing is memorized and will resume at this position.... " Now, this is without doubt the single...

    From D-lux 3 to D-lux 4

    OK, I have to admit I never was altogether happy with my D-lux 3 that I bought just over 1 year ago. It felt fiddly in my big hands, and the images needed quite a lot of PP to look OK (I always shoot raw). I tried to tell myself that an upgrade would give only a marginal improvement, and that...

    G1 HD on Norwegian site

    http://www.tu.no/forbrukerteknologi/article201703.ece For those few of you (:rolleyes: ) who don´t understand Norwegian, the text says that the G1 HD was presented by Panasonic on a press conference earlier this week in Amsterdam. The new model will come bundled with the 14 - 140 lens. So...

    Canon 50/1.2 for LTM: worth having?

    I just found this lens on sale locally, well used but at a decent price. Would it be something for the G1, or is it known as a dog? Should be both lighter and cheaper than the f 0.95 one, and noticeably faster than my Summicron 50 - if it can indeed be used wide open.

    It´s HERE! (Lightroom 2.2, that is..)

    http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2008/12/lightroom_22_now_available.html Just installed it on my PB. Yes, it does handle G1 raws directly; haven´t had time to test details.

    D-lux 3 autumn

    Well, everyone is lusting after the D-lux 4 these days (me included...). Still, the good old D-lux 3 can still surprise. These shots from my garden were made just an hour ago (raws, slight PP in Lightroom). Actually, I feel that special something that´s in many Digilux 2 shots is here as...

    Dog Gossip (testing the 16 - 85)

    Recently I bought the new 16 - 85 VR as a light-weight walkaround alternative to the 17 - 55 on my D200. Happy to report I´m quite satisfied with it (but not to the point of selling the 17 - 85). The big plus is, of course, the compactness; I just can´t lug the 17 - 55 on a day´s walk and...

    Don´t forget the Digilux 2!

    Since I got the D-lux 3 two months ago, I haven´t used my trusty old Digilux 2 very much. But it´s still capable of (technically) excellent results, and the controls are just perfect. Here are a few recent shots from Stockholm:

    D-lux 3 in winter

    As told in an earlier thread, I bought my D-lux 3 a few weeks ago, and left for our annual ski holiday shortly after. Normally, I would have brought my beloved Digilux 2, but as a challenge (and to force myself to learn the new tool), I took only the D-lux 3. The result: I made several times...
