V_kids Posted April 26, 2010 Share #1 Posted April 26, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Yesterday I went for a scuba diving trip with M9 + Lux 24. I found out that lux 24 behave a bit strange... Something I have a LOT of CA on my picture, however, some of them doest have at all. I believe they all were taken using the same aperture ( between F4 - F 5.6) here are the pictures CA a lot (the big white thing on the water is a giant Jelly fish, yesterday we have so many giant Jelly fishes it's a lof of fun to swim with them) without CA Can anyone explain to me, why this things happend? Thank you Andree Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ho_co Posted April 26, 2010 Share #2 Posted April 26, 2010 Andree, looks like a fun trip and a happy group! There have been several other threads on this same topic. IIRC, the consensus was that it's not CA, but there wasn't agreement on exactly what the cause was. It's a digital effect, something having to do with the way a digital sensor works. If you shot film with the lens, you wouldn't see the effect. Check the forum Search function for something like "purple fringe." Several lenses are mentioned in the following examples, and there are more: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m9-forum/98551-summilux-24mm.html http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m9-forum/104325-21mm-summilux-m9.html http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m9-forum/107052-m9-50-lux-asph-too-much.html http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m9-forum/119433-noctilux-0-95-purple-fringe.html There are several workarounds mentioned in the various threads, one of which is to try a different raw converter. Just for the record, and to help people find a solution for your situation, what raw converter are you using? Welcome to the forum, by the way! I wish the rest of us were out swimming with you.

V_kids Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share #3 Posted April 26, 2010 Hi Howard. Thank for the link! It's nice to hear the explanation, at least I know this is normal I'm using Light-Room 3 Beta for the conversion. I wish I have Leica M7 or Film one, so that I can try it. Summilux 24/1.4 never fail to impress me ^.^ @F1.4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
