    Hi everybody, I’m a computer science engineer who has been working, as a hobby, the last three years in a new, more precise, way of recreating film look with digital cameras. I’m posting here for feedback, in case anybody of you would like to test the application (with the M9) and show the results and your opinions. I usually shoot film photography but also I like the comfort of digital. The problem is that I’ve never been happy with existing film emulations. Mainly because of that, because they are emulations instead of simulations. METHOD USED For doing so, instead of doing a generic conversion for every camera, I’ve done a specialised conversion for the Leica M9 based on simulating the chemical process and spectrum response, instead of applying curves and other stuff. In the end, I thought, if analog and digital are just two instruments which capture light, I thought, maybe is there any mathematical conversion to make the digital to look like film? I mean, if I take the same photo with analog and digital, under exact same conditions (light / aperture / exposition /…) could I make them look exactly the same? It’s based on chemical simulation and the Leica M9’s response to spectrum. Then LUTs and finally some extra calibration. I think that it could be improved because I’ve used home made or open source tools for calibrating and so on, which are far from perfect. EXAMPLES (Analog vs Converted Digital) Following are some examples of Superia 200 and TriX 400. Click in each photo to see high resolution. DNGs shoots taken with Leica M9 (left), and FILM shoots taken with Minolta CLE (right) at same conditions (aperture / exposition / ISO). All shoots taken with Zeiss Biogon T* ZM 35mm f/2. The examples show several photos, which are the following: +------------------------+------------------------+ | original DNG | | +------------------------+------------------------+ | converted DNG | scanned FILM | +------------------------+------------------------+ | developed DNG | developed FILM | +------------------------+------------------------+ For the generated simulated negative TIFF file and the scanned TIFF file I’ve applied exactly the same develop parameters. TriX 400 - 1 TriX 400 - 2 TriX 400 - 3 Superia 200 - 1 Superia 200 - 2 Superia 200 - 3 Superia 200 - 4 Superia 200 - 5 Superia 200 - 6 CONCLUSIONS Tonal range - Biggest difference between digital and film Dynamic range - Digital is faaar more detailed in the blacks, film never gets burnt, meanwhile digital gets burn quite fast. Film has more microcontrast, it's more sharpen Digital is a little bit more contrast after developing, I imagine it’s because it reach white level faster, then, when doing autolevels with the developing program, as a result, it’s a more contrast image. DOWNLOAD I'm having a console application ready, if interest is shown it will be ready quite soon! CAVEHEATS / LIMITATIONS The program only accept DNG, because I need all the light captured by the camera, instead of a JPG already converted and really dependent on camera self made adjustments. The program only accepts photos taken at the ISO of the certain film that is gonna be used. For example, for TriX400 it will accept only Leica M9 DNGs at 400 ISO. I’ve also done tests with ISO 200 and 800, and the results were quite satisfactory but, for complexity reasons, I prefer to let it be native film ISO for the moment. Highlights are not always correct, and sometimes they look weird, mainly in color film. This is due to bayer sensor pattern and its different intensity response (for Red, Green and Blue channels). FUTURE (& PAST) WORK Leica M10-D Leica M8.2 THANKS Super thanks to the creator of LibRaw, a wonderful C++ library for working with RAW files. Any questions I’m open to answer 🙂 Best regards everybody. Tomás AKA “Camalogica”

    I have been using an only M lens I have left: a Summilux-M 1:1.4/35 ASPH (11663) with my CL body, I now have no more Leica M bodies, which I use to shoot slide films only. What do you think: should I replace the M lens with a: “Summilux-TL 35 f/1.4 ASPH.”? Would this 35f1.4-TL lens much more suited for the CL camera body than the 35f1.4-M lens + “Leica M-Adapter L“ Now the only TL lens I have is the 55-135 zoom.

    Hey Cats! new mini speedlights from Godox that work with Leica ! I am delighted 😁 https://leicarumors.com/2025/01/02/three-new-godox-mini-flash-units-released-compatible-with-leica-cameras.aspx/ cheers 🥂

    Hey, who would love to habe a TS Lens for L-mount. I would love to have some stellar Tilt Shift Lenses. 90mm 50mm 24mm 16mm That+s what I would love to see in the future. And as Leica has a medium format camera with S Lenses, this should not be that big problem. How about you? Are you happy without TS lenses? I am using Canon instead at the moment. But I would change this.

    Hi, there is one new Feature on the SL3 that i would love to have on my SL2-s and Other SLs. The light Level on the OLED Display. This can’t be that difficult? If you are working with different SLs this display should display the same features. I used this levels a lot on my other cameras as it became a standard in the 90s. So I was a little disappointed when I had to realize that with the SL2-s this level is not available. Do I need the battery symbol at this location > I am not sure 🤔 the Bluetooth symbol ? I don’t know Cards? Modes? > Bigger displayed > But there is one thing I would love to know when I look down on my camera > exposure > just for reference. I can prepare the shot without holding the camera to the eyes! All the others information I can get when I look through the camera. But the light levels > this is very important to me. And if you don’t like the proposal, many we can activate and deactivate the feature. And speaking about light levels and dynamic range. 14-15 stops , 14 decided by 2 is 7 …. can we get 5 stops on each side to sea what is going on? I know that you can see this with the histogram. But sometimes if you are taking pictures in low light 💡 it’s nicer to know where you hitting the lowest capacity of the camera. And 10 Stops should not be that big of a deal. I don’t need it in the OLED > but in the Viewfinder > that would be excellent. that are 2 of the things that I would love to see in future firmware updates. cheers 🥂 Peter

    Dear SL-S users! I am a family photographer in the Mexican Riviera Maya. Colors pop, lightning is almost always beautiful. Nice soft pastel tones dominate the mornings and evenings. I am quite happy with my Canon R6 but just recently my 35mm 1.4 ii gives up on me and I am considering a change to the SL-S. I do have an M10 with a Summicron 50 f2 and Summicron 28mm f2, and even if I personally like the images that I get with the M System I never use it in family sessions as the pictures and colors always turn out a bit "harder" over the Canon colors that work so well where I live. My question to you: Do you recommend me switching to the SL System? Maybe you did sessions of that sort in comparable areas and can share photos? Thanks a lot and happy new year!

    Some people were trying to see what I am shooting there exactly... Camera: Leica M-P (typ 240) Lens: Noctilux-M 50mm f/0.95 ASPH

    Hey, if Leica would build a fullframe CL with L mount and USB-C port, would you buy it? And what other feature would you like the camera to have? I would love if it would have same Leica fullframe pancake lenses. One extrem wide > like 18 mm one 28 mm , 35 mm , 50 mm That would be my favorite camera. if the connectivity to the app would improve a bit more still , I would skip the tilt LCD. buttons like the SL3 and Q3. And dual pixel AF. Would you buy it? And can you sleep now that the idea is planted…. cheers ps. After one day of taking picture > it’s very close to my favorite camera.

    Servus,, letztes Jahr bin ich durch eine Reinvestion (Scotch) und habe den Schritt zu Leica gemacht bzw vor zwei Jahren hatte ich ja schon das R-System besessen jedoch alles wieder verkauft und auch mit in die M gespielt und verliebt. Aber da mir es keine Ruhe gelassen hat war ich dann auf Suche nach alten Schätzchen und somit haben sich drei Barnacks der IIf/IIIf/IIIC den Weg zu mir gefunden auch zwei M3 DS/SS und sind nun Abwechslungsreich mit auf meinen Touren auch im Job. Quasi als EDC😁 Die ersten Filme sind belichtet wobei bei zwei'n die längeren Zeiten nicht gepasst haben also den Verkäufer angeschrieben und ohne Probleme wurden neu justiert. Und bei der IIIf war Lichteinfall somit auch angeschrieben und wurde auch ohne Probleme seinerseits erneuert. Entschleunigt unterwegs zu sein macht schon was her und einfach der Spaßeffekt zielt schon ab.

    A double whammy festive year of two major M landmarks, the M3 (1954) and M6 (1984). What in your opinion is Leica cooking up for these jubilee anniversaries? I feel a special edition or two coming up…

    I am still learning some stuff about the SL2. Is it possible to switch somehow between card 1 or 2 when you're reviewing images on playback mode? Can't seem to find anything about it. Thank you.

    While in Japan, I got me the ultimate Japanese Leica bag. It is a bag for the Leica S/SL system but looks amazingly universal. The bag was conceived and developed entirely by Leica Professional Store Tokyo. It holds a S/SL camera body and three lenses, it can also store a tablet, charger, batteries, etc. and is perfect for a big two M/dozen lenses setup. The front has a tag embossed with "Leica Professional Store Tokyo". The bag costs ¥60,500 (10% tax included) or ¥55,000 before tax. it reminds me of our old family Olivetti typewriter bag. The design is genius, cowhide leather combined with synthetic suede and red interior. Tested immediately, super comfy wear, and fully water (downpour) repellent & fast dry.

    I’m new to photography, I’m trying to decide between the M10P and the Monochrom M246. I’ve read all the forums about the pros and cons of each choice. I shoit primarily in b&w but I like at least having the option of shooting color. With the M10P, I’ve heard about “Monochrom Mode” when shooting in this mode will the images show up as a black & white preview on the LCD Screen? is it really that big of a difference/ time consuming effort to convert each and every M10P color photo to blk & white? As opposed to little PP Time with the Monochrom M246? Thanks, Robert
