  1. “Last light” The dynamic range of a CL is quite something. PP and cropped, plus original DNG from the card shown first.
  2. Need your help. I already have the 18mm T. But, I think its lacking micro contrast and does not compare well with my M glass. Is there any significant difference in image quality and rendering between the 18mm and the 23mm? The 35m is out of the question due to size. Thank you. Note: I already know that there is an extra stop difference.
  3. Hi everyone, I recently bought a Leica CL, and while otherwise in good condition I am noticing some small spots inside the viewfinder. The spots are on the right hand side when the camera is inspected from the front, and don’t seem to be on the actual glass - which is pretty clear to my eye. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks in advance, Daniel
  4. I have a problem to get the SF 40 flash working on the CL camera. All the settings are as per the manual and the flash setting is on TTL but the flash icon on the display is crossed out meaning the flash will not fire although the camera flash setting is on. I have tried it on manual and auto but it still does not work. The flash tests good when I press the test fire, I have also changed the batteries but have had no success. I was hoping to get information from someone who may have experienced the same problem as I have.
  5. May I ask those have the experience of using Display Protection Foil. Is it necessary or is a good practice to use the Display Protection Foil. on a CL, as well on a D-Lux 7 etc? Or the displays on the Leica new models are better now than before, not as easy to be scratched?
  6. Hallo, meine neue gebraucht erworbene CL funktioniert grundlegend prima. Nun wollte ich mal die Genauigkeit des Belichtungsmessers "testen" und verglich mit Messwerten der M6 und einer Lichtmessungsapp des Smartphones. Mir ist klar, dass die Messmethoden verschieden sind, aber das dürfte bei einem homogenen Messobjekt (gleichmaßig ausgeleuchtete Wand) zu vernachlässigen sein. Die CL hat ordnungsgemäß eine 1,35V-Quecksilberzelle drin, der Batterietest funktioniert, die Belichtungsmessung reagiert plausibel auf Helligkeitsunterschiede. Unzufrieden bin ich mit der Tatsache, dass die CL ziemlich genau zwei Blenden knapper misst (bspw. 1/60s anstatt 1/15s bei identischer Blende und identischer Empfindlichkeit). Ich gehe davon aus, dass M6 und Smartphone korrekt messen, da Dias in der M6 durchweg richtig belichtet sind. Hat jemand eine Idee? Habe ich einen Denkfehler? Oder kann die CdS-Messzelle der CL altern? Danke!
  7. To minimize the changing of lenses, thinking of a "second CL body"... although from reading many other reviews and user comments, the CL could have some improvements... Thinking how long before Leica may come out with a new "CL-2" ... (somewhat like the "Q2" now replaced the "Q") ?
  8. OK a preface it is probably me doing something wrong. Here is the problem I set the camera to manual, inside ring/button (setting wheel?). But my shutter speed won't change, stuck at 1/250, the start guide says it should be the inside (left) wheel. What am I missing? I am using manual M lenses with the M adapter. Thanks Tom
  9. Hallo, mich beschäftigt neuerdings die Frage ob ich mir eine CL zulegen sollte. Ich besitze eine D-Lux 109 so für immer dabei und habe damit sicher schon etliche tausend Fotos (vorzugsweise DNG) gemacht. Daneben besitze ich eine Leica Q seit zwei Jahren. Ich liebe die Q sehr. Ist eine großartige Kamera, aber letztendlich benutze ich sie nur selten (ca. 1500 Aufnahmen in zwei Jahren). Ich mache damit eher Fotos bei besonderen Anlässen (Hochzeit, Taufe u.ä.). Insgesamt ist die Q doch recht groß und leider was das Objektiv angeht etwas unflexibel. Nun überlege ich beide Kameras durch die Leica CL + Vario Elmar 3,5-5,6/18-56mm zu ersetzen. Die andere Überlegung war die D-Lux 7 zu kaufen und parallel die Q weiter zu nutzen. Vielleicht kann mir hier jemand einen Tipp oder eine Empfehlung geben. Ich fotografiere überwiegend meine Familie, Landschaften und mache gelegentlich Naturaufnahmen durch mein Leica-Spektiv.
  10. Good day 😄 , May I ask those who have the knowledge about connecting a Leica CL camera to an iPhone to download images from the CL to the phone through CL's own wifi function? I have a "Leia Image Shuttle" app on the iPhone an used it to connect/download from a D-Lux109, works okay... But it seems not able to connect with the CL. Do I need to download the "Leica CL" app separately for just connecting with the iPhone?
  11. Happy New Year! Now the CL is about a year into the market, I wonder how many could share your experience of your CL with the TL 60mm/f2.8 Macro lens? Is a good combo? Is this lens worthy at this high price? I now only have a 23mm/f2.0 as a "native lens" with a CL, and not really used this system yet, very unfamiliar with it.
  12. When I mount either the SF60 or the Profoto AirTTL For Nikon transmitter on the CL, the screen does this. I should point out that the SF60 only does this if it is on Wireless Slave mode. In TTL mode, it is fine. When I half press, this 'flashing' of the screen stops and things resume to normal. I assume this is not normal behavior?
  13. Despite several attempts I have been unable to register my recently purchased (brand new) Leica CL 18-56mm kit. Leica UK have tried to help and referred the matter to Germany and they have given the me the procedure for registration which firstly involves inputting the product code, which Germany says will bring up the kit in the menu, but when I try I get "0 Results". Germany says they have tried the serial number and it works, but not for me! I can identify the kit via the menu but when I type in the serial number I get an error message that says the serial number does not match the product. Despite trying several variants on the inputting of the numbers nothing works for me. Anyone else had this problem? Without registration I don't get my free Light room trial.
  14. I have a Leica SL and CL and use the CL generally as a light weight back up. The SL works very well with a Nikon compatible Profoto Air TTL trigger but when I put the trigger on the CL, which seems to have exactly the same pin configuration, the flash will not fire. The link between trigger and flash works fine; it's the connectivity between the CL and the trigger that seems to be the problem. Any ideas or suggestions welcome. Thanks David
  15. My second digital Leica was an X 113, which I loved. Perfect lens, lovely body, simple controls; everything was wonderful apart from the ISO performance beyond 1600, blown highlights, and mediocre autofocus. I had high hopes for the new CL, and though it seems to have addressed these issues, ergonomically it just doesn't sit well with me. I have been told that the CL is looking to take over the X line, which from a marketing point of view makes sense, but it does now leave Leica photographers who want only the purest form of controls with just the M and Q lines - and both of these are a little too bulky for the pocket. In light of this gap, I still believe there is a niche for a new, small X. Think of the X2 in size and controls, but with a TL2 sensor, and a 35mm or 50mm collapsible Summicron lens. Then replace the back screen with the ISO dial, and up top place a viewfinder in the same fashion as the VIDOM. The X-D if you will. Add a IIIg selfie timer lever on the front for good measure, and I think it might do quite well.
  16. Hallo zusammen, meine Leica CL, die ich gebraucht in voll funktionsfähigem Zustand zu einem lächerlich günstigen Preis erstanden habe, ist mir vor einer Weile aus einer Höhe von ca. 1 m auf den Asphalt gefallen - mein Fotorucksack war nicht richtig verschlossen. Shit happens. Seitdem funktioniert der Belichtungsmesser nicht mehr und der Messsucher ist dejustiert. Da ich nicht Krösus heiße und auch keine Dukatenscheißer im Keller habe, möchte ich die Kamera ungern nach Hause schicken. Daher nun meine Frage an die hoffentlich in solchen Dingen erfahreneren Mit-Forenten: Wo in Deutschland oder zur Not angrenzenden Ländern kann ich meine CL am besten zur Reparatur hinschicken? Vielen Dank im Voraus für Eure Hilfe!
  17. Hi, I've just bought a CL and paid £48 for the Fotos PRO app on my Iphone,but it will not do anything? I can't even use it to take shots using the remote. Plus if I want to use the app on my iPad do I need to pay an additional subscription. Very frustrated an disappointed in the app.
  18. My beloved M-E is currently in the hospital in Allendale, NJ, for a corroded sensor replacement. The cost of this, as most of you know, is $1,595 + shipping. I also had the option to upgrade to the CL (body only) for the same price. The CL offers a host of technological upgrades, better low-light performance, blah, blah, blah. And in full disclosure: I told myself this was the right move to make... that lasted for about an hour. The thought of being without this instrument which feels so pure and so aligned with my film photography actually made me nauseous. I passed on the CL. Here's a pic of "my precious" mounted with the beautiful Canon 50mm f/1.8 (Canon Seranar). Carry on.
  19. My main camera is an M240, with a Summicron 35mm ASPH. As a backup, and for those occasions where I want to travel light I have an X2. Lately I’ve been thinking of upgrading the X2, but all options I see are suboptimal: • CL + Elmarit TL 18mm: good size and weight, but too wide • CL + Summicron-TL 23mm: good weight, slightly too big, more expensive • Q2: great lens, crops to 35mm-e, 30MP, APS-C, but heavy, big (almost the same size as the M), even more expensive • Q: cheapest option, great lens, but crops to 35mm-e, 15MP, APS-C, heavy and big I visited the Leica Store in my city to handle the Q2 and the CL. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring a card to examine images in detail later. I have a couple of questions about the CL: 1. In the store, after handling the Q2, the shutter noise of the CL seemed very loud, like an M8. How is it in practice? 2. I’ve read complaints about the top wheels turning inadvertently when they brush against clothing. It must be serious enough if there is an option to block them in software. Is it that bad? 3. I remember Peter Karbe saying that for APS-C they needed to increase lens performance by 50% to keep up with full frame lenses. How do M lenses on the CL compare to TL lenses? Thanks!
  20. Hi everyone! Nice to finally make the decision to join this community. I made the switch to Leica from Nikon last year when I purchased the CL with a 23mm Summicron f2. I absolutely love the camera and the setup for the type of photography I do. at the moment, my current setup is the CL with a f/1.4 Super Takuma 50mm (thorium glass model).

    May 2019. Gdansk, Poland. CL + Vario-Elmar-TL 18-56.
  22. Hi, I want to to know how good are the 50mm crop of the Q2 because I like that kind of prospective... A CL with the TL 35 Summilux 1.4 lens (so 50mm equivalent as is an APSC) is equal or better? Thanks to all who can help me
  23. My daughter all grown up now, still having the feel and ability to be a good subject for an impromptu shoot on a beautiful beach day here in Barbados. Have a great day!
  24. After searching for a system bag for my CL outfit, The solution was right under my nose , and at a bargain price! I took a chance on a mint boxed M6 small combibag on ebay for £45 well, the fit is perfect....CL/Protector/35 TL fits the cradle, two spare batteries and room for filters below, 18 TL and (currently) 90 Elmar/M-L adapter in the lens compartment....(soon to be 55-135 TL) Finest nappa leather, pocket on front for other bits&bobs and overall tiny !
