telyt Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share #21 Posted July 11, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) imagine how good this would have been in pure digital I'll work on those files & post 'em. The don't show the hare unfortunately. Here's another scan of the original photo, without the slide mount, color-corrected with increased saturation to bring out more of the yellow of the eyes (does this work for you?) and 900 pixels wide: Welcome, dear visitor!

leicamann Posted July 11, 2006 Share #22 Posted July 11, 2006 imagine how good this would have been in pure digital I completely disagree....as a fish is to water..so digital is "viewer friendly" here..but thats where the similarity and quality ends. Doug uses the DMR..I believe this was purely a personal choice and yes when scanning from analogue to digital there will "always be compression issues". A computer monitor is a very poor choice or place to truely evaluate a photograph. Cheers, JRM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lambroving Posted July 11, 2006 Share #23 Posted July 11, 2006 Doug, WOW!!! We don't get to see your work in this scale very often. Quite an eye-catcher! Dr. Peter, Think you must be quite mad... THIS is a photograph! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonathangraham Posted July 12, 2006 Share #25 Posted July 12, 2006 Damn - you are a good wildlife photographer. Film or digital, it doesn't matter when you are behind the camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 12, 2006 Share #26 Posted July 12, 2006 The larger posting has done this picture the power of good in my opinion. I found the smaller version lacking in something - a feeling that is not there with the larger one. Thanks Doug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted July 13, 2006 Share #27 Posted July 13, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) John, I don't use the split-image focussing aid, ever. I use the matte portion of the viewscreen instead. I even had Don Goldberg remove the split-image viewscreen from my black SL2 (was: Peter Werner's) and replace it with an SL-type screen. I've ordered a Brightscreen viewfinder magnifier for the R8, and will probably get a Brightscreen "Proscreen", which has a larger microprism area. Doug Can you tell me how this screen, which seems to be $300, is 4x better than the Leica R8 Microprism screen 14345 at about $73? Seems very odd to me. Is it just the larger microprism area? Thanks.

telyt Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share #28 Posted July 13, 2006 Andy, since I haven't used the Proscreen yet I can't say how much better it is. I'm looking for a level of performance rather than a performance per dollar ratio, in the same way that I find the 280mm f/4 APO preferable to my brother's AF-Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF even at 10x the price.
