How to upload images: Prepare the image as follows: 1.   The image should be sRGB and 8-bits 2.   Reduce the size to 2480 pixels on the longest side. (smaller sizes can be set, but are not recommended) 3.   Sharpen properly for screen. 4.   Save as JPG to your desktop, reducing JPG quality to produce 2000 kB (5000 kB for sponsoring members). 5.   In Lightroom these parameters should be set in the Export dialog. 6.   In the Forum posting or editing box, click “c

Somewhere, way back in the post, are a couple D2 shots I contributed. I've been neglecting all my cameras quite a bit lately but I had occasion to pick up my Digilux 2 yesterday and quickly realized how much I missed it. This shot was taken pretty much right where I picked the camera up--couldn't resist putting it to work immediately. Weak sunlight streaming through our bedroom window onto my rather eclectic collection of natural history books...

When I look back over my Digilux 2 photos, I fall in love  with that camera all over again. There is certainly something to be said about the Leica photos....and for me...it's the softness of the high

Thanks for the kind words! Ideally, I would have cropped the door frame out of the lower right, but I was lucky that she stood there for the few seconds it took to get these... :)

 

BTW, I bounced the flash off of a door to her right. I just love the ability to bounce the built-in flash on the D2. I can't believe more cameras don't incorporate this feature. Maybe one day when I'm in charge... ;)

The bounce flash is rare for a built-in flash unit and I use it a lot for my informal pictures indoors.. It is always a joy to use.

 

I was about to comment on the longevity of my original Digilux batteries; but I won't tempt fate! I presume they are still available somewhere!

I was able to pick up some new original Leica batteries on eBay for a decent price. Unopened! I have 5 of them now...

 

Are this batteries still OK?

I ask because once I was on a vacation trip and I bought a battery it was not ok. No problem, because the seller changed it and gave me back the money.

I just won a Panasonic lc-1 after looking a few years for a Digilux2/lc-1

 

Now the seller describes the item as in very good shape and fully working, but the serial number is washed out, so my main concern would be a sensor failure, does anyone in Europe have any experience with panasonic customer service, in other words will they fix it?

 

Another thing is that i am thinking that since the camera is still working now, soon to be 2012 then there might not be any talk of sensor failure with it?

 

On another note i like to ask any owners of the cameras some questions regarding the jpeg output, anyone got any experience with tweaking the lc-1 jpegs to look more like the ones from digilux 2? I mostly shoot black&white (90% of the time) wont the b&w output be very similiar?

 

A last question, Does the raw files have the Leica magic that the digilux jpegs have?

 

Thanks for your time, this thread is wonderful!

Hello,

 

I think that Leica still gracefully replaces the sensors of D2 which are of origin.

I do not know for Panasonic. Perhaps it would be necessary to put the question to the manufacturer.

 

 

As regards the JPEG of the two apparatuses, I can only return you here :

Thank you!

 

To my eyes they are very close i guess the leica jpegs are a bit more flat and natural, anyway i like a bit of punch in black & white so maybe the pana black & white jpegs will be just my taste, both very good and both giving a distinctive look! :) cant wait for my camera to arrive, will be my only digicam to compliment my m6 for some time i guess.
