rsolomon Posted February 10, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 10, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) I’m new to the Vlux-4 and enjoying the simplicity and intuitiveness of the camera, with that I am looking for a good workflow and thought maybe someone had tips and techniques to share. I also have a Digilux 2 and Digilux 3 :I’m not much of a computer guy so a one button workflow– if such a things exists would be ideal for my needs. Thanks in advance Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northwest Wanderer Posted February 11, 2013 Share #2 Posted February 11, 2013 I think you will enjoy the V-Lux 4. As for your question, I really don't have a solid answer for you. I would suggest reading the manual carefully for help. You may want to print it out to make it easier to review. With all the possible settings on this camera, it can be as complex or simple as you wish. I've found the custom settings C1 & C2 may be set up to suit your needs. Lightroom 4 which was supplied with the camera will help bringing the images to their best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsolomon Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted February 13, 2013 LR 4, Light Room did not come in my package, i checked on the box and where listing the contents doesnt list Light Room - are you sure its supplied, i did by at the Leica shop thanks for any info Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsolomon Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted February 13, 2013 Ah i see now -- when you register the camera you can receive the download ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwest Wanderer Posted February 13, 2013 Share #5 Posted February 13, 2013 I see you figured it out as to Lightroom 4. It seems companies don't provide a disc anymore. They have you download direct from the website. I found that kind of on the cheap side I must say. Lightroom 4 is a good program and compliments the camera well. Hope you're enjoying the V-Lux 4. It is an interesting camera. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

levipetey Posted December 25, 2013 Share #9 Posted December 25, 2013 I just got my vlux 4 and really like it. Couple of questions- is there a firmware update and if so how do you get it. Second- the manual shows many more "scene" settings than I show on my camera- I only have 18. Is there a way to access the others? Is there a US Leica help line? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwest Wanderer Posted December 26, 2013 Share #10 Posted December 26, 2013 First off, I'd say read the manual (CD) completely and make note of the various settings. Best I know, there have not been any software updates for the V-Lux 4. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Z. Goriup Posted February 21, 2014 Share #11 Posted February 21, 2014 rsolomon after you download LR4, I would strongly recommend that you also buy the upgrade to LR5 ( if memory serves me it's approx. $ 80.00 from Adobe). It has a couple of very effective and useful features over the LR4 version. Also, there's a terrific series of tutorials ( free ) by Julieanne Kost, one of the Adobe developeras of the Lightroom software, that I found very helpful. She's an effective communicator - just google Adobe J. Kost tutorials. Best of Luck JZG Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue t Posted March 19, 2014 Share #12 Posted March 19, 2014 LR5 was provided with my V-LUX 4, which I purchased in December 2013. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
