Ralph Hagenauer will host a two-evening event on November 6th and 7th
from 18.30 to 21.00 each evening.
11/6: "The Exciting New World of Leica Digital Photography" will
include digital basics, photo techniques and what is uniquely Leica in
the digital space.
11/7: "M digital Photography and Capture One software.
Contact Kenmore Camera, 425.485.7447 to reserve a seat and obtain the
Secret Navy hotel/driving instructions for this event (too big for a
camera store, I'm told).
I received my confirming phone call this morning (Saturday). See you
there!
Bob in (a very, very, very wet) Seattle.
By the way: Got my slides back from Ivey; they're overnighting at
Costco for High Res scan to CD off the new Frontier System. Shot with
the R9 with 28-90 ASPH and 70-180 APO. Mostly fall color at the
University of Washington Aboretum on a glorious, clear, ISO 1000 day.
I louped them on my light table and I am now a Believer in Kodak's
Ektachrome 100 VS for landscapes. Colors are spot on as I saw them
through the viewfinder. I just don't see how you can beat well-exposed
chromes for "pop" and that crazy, three-dimensional look.
(This film not recommended for portraits, people shots due to
saturation).
I'll post some pix next day or so - CD will be ready some time tomorrow
(Sunday).

Boy! Ralph is a busy boy, these days! He's in Vancouver, BC,
Canada on the 9th, and in San Francisco on the 10th and 11th.

I wish I had Ralph's frequent flyer points! :-)
I do know one thing... The M8 is the slickest digital camera I've
ever seen. The digital bit doesn't get in the way of true
photography. If I could figure out how to put my 400 Telyt on it,
I'd go for it! And please, don't remind me of the Visoflex. It
works, but... well...it's a Visoflex!
Even if you're not "M" oriented, it's well worth a "look see", if
you find Ralph and his "travelling Leica show" near you.
Cheers!
