Re: [Leica] Nathan's PAD 19/12/2008: Wilma and my M8

To illustrate in more detail of what I was talking about on Friday, I have added a 100% crop of what I focused on (Wilma's eye). Again, no sharpening of any kind has been applied.

Keep in mind that this is a handheld picture at a rather lively lunch.

After the discussion about the M8 colour issues when filters are not used in mixed lighting, it is time to show one that demonstrates why I bought the M8. This is just a simple portrait of my co-worker Wilma, taken during our Christmas lunch in a restaurant this afternoon. The image is not sharpened, and the only things I did to it in Lightroom was to click on AUTO to adjust the levels, and to crop it.

When I zoom in on Wilma's eye in Lightroom, I can see why I bought the M8 (and also that the 35mm Summarit is a great lens). This image is sharper right out of the camera than I would have gotten from my E3 or previously my Canon 1DII, after sharpening in those cases.
