Leica Monochrom unprocessed file


Recommended Posts

Hi all, this is my very first post in this forum, my name is Francesco, I'm from Italy and I shooted from I was 5yo. Today I have a Nikon D800, but in the past I had also other reflex. Today I shoot also with Canonflex, a very old film-reflex. I'm interested in understatndi quality of native not retouched file from Leica Monochrom.

 

I read several comments on quality of RAW/jpg file, can someone share with me a non-retouched file?

 

I'm just curious to understand quality of file, without any kind of usage in Photoshop or Lightroom.

 

I noticed, on LFI or flickr, that some photo are so clear, to seems "unreal". I don't understand if it's conseguence of terrific postprocessing, or if Leica Monochrom is a terrific camera ;)

 

In any case, this camera is in my wish list ;)

 

Thank you very much!

Grazie

 

Francesco:)

Hello Francesco, welcome to the forum.

 

If you spend two minutes with google you'll find several examples of unprocessed MM files.

 

It is an amazing camera. I can certainly attest that it's image quality derives not from any kind of fancy post-processing but simply from innately rich files.

 

All the best...

Could be one, or the other.

 

Probably both.

 

Doubtful it's neither.

 

On a serious note, postprocessing is of great significance, as is proper exposure. Steep learning curve on both.

 

I think it's apparent that image quality of posted samples has been improving as time goes on. So even among experienced Leica users -- the purchasers of this camera fall into this group -- it's been a learning experience.
