Do Digilux 2 photos have distinctive look?

Very nice...

Black, white and pink ... ?

 

For me your shot shows the D2's ability to resolve subtle shades of black and white right throughout the dynamic range. Very impressive for a camera with such a humble 5MP sensor.

Few shots from a local festival (including gratuitous use of 1/4 shutter speed) plus a pic of a character who anyone in Japan should recognise instantly!

Hello,

 

Is it possible on D2 to choose at the same time the option RAW + fine JPEG ?

Thanks to you.

Yes!

[jippiejee]

The D2 has 4 different picture quality settings: RAW - jpeg low compr - jpeg medium compression - jpeg high compression.

 

Since the camera came with a default 64Mb sd card, I don't think anyone would even want to store their images in both raw and jpeg format. It is not an option. (edit: I might be wrong actually seeing the reply above me ... just haven't found that option apparently...)

 

I myself don't even shoot raw on the D2, writing one image takes about 6 seconds.

If the option RAW + fine JPEG is possible (but not someone apparently) would be needed approximately 15 Mo for an image.

On a card of 2Go, it would represent 130 photos.

 

Is it exact ?

Guy I do not think many shoot RAW with the Digilux 2 as the jpegs are good enough anyway. I know I have only shot jpgs

[Guytou]

OK, thank you.

 

I have just seen that D2 could also pull RAW + JPEG at the same time.

It is written at the top, at the end of the first paragraph :

I'm willing to be corrected here but aren't we drifting away from the thread again? There is another thread called "Digilux 2" Maybe some of these posts should be there? These are technical questions, rather than a discussion about the qualities of Digilux 2 images.

OK, I did not know and please excuse me for this digression.

Quite right too. If you're going to benefit from the friendliness and warmth of the genteel folk at Leica forum, make sure you put your question in the right place or you will be shot down like a dog or an errant schoolchild:eek:

[misiekbunnik]

Well maybe not, but is nice to have discussion and pictures seperated.

 

I agree, there is already enough of a distinctive look form the jpeg files.

Question, can you speak of a distinctive look if you shoot raw, is it not the user that makes the look? If you shoot jpeg, the look is from the leica engineers and therefor distinctive for that camera?

 

A leica engineers jpeg, shot using my digilux 2 and a subject that is close to me (my daughter) ;

I am one of the few and only switch to Jpeg only when shooting children or animals. I prefer the reserve of quality inherent in raw files.
