Doc Henry Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share #27921 Posted February 9, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I remember the colour shot Henry and actually prefer it to the black and white version. The subtle tones looked wonderful. Gary For Gary I post again the same picture in color in comparison with b&w Color Kodak Portra 160-Leicaflex SL (1970)-50 Summicron (1970) B&w Kodak TX400-Leica R4S (1986) -50 Summicron (1986) I am a purist and I don't like to convert color in b&w. Certain parts of the photo in black are not homogeneous when converted, more visible when you crop ! you know the reason ? It's better , if you can to have 2 cameras one b&w and one color. Gary you remember you're full b&w before and you don't like too much color Here the proof that color is useful just for the subtle red of foliage ! are you agree with me ? ... and I can say , you are an expert !

gnuyork Posted February 9, 2017 Share #27923 Posted February 9, 2017 When I read Gary's post yesterday I immediately thought "Hmm, I spent Saturday afternoon taking pictures of the same scene with (1) M240 + 50mm Summilux-M ASPH and (2) 1957 IIIg + 1951 5cm Summicron Collapsible. I had not set off with the intention of making direct comparisons between digital and film, more a case of feeling I had been neglecting the digital pairing and that I was keen to finish the film. Anyway, Gary's interesting post caused me to actually make the comparisons and having done so, start posting them here - and I apologise for somewhat jumping on the bandwagon so to speak. So - today's offering - same equipment - same Saturday walk - one digital, one Acros 100. Comments re their relative merits welcomed. Keith, I like the top one much better. Here I think it's a more clear case that the top one is film than your other examples (at least to me). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually prefer the lines drawn by the b+w which present my eyes with a far less confusing picture - probably due to my eyes not being able to see subtle colours very well. Just having lunch having had a perfect systems audit in work - the auditor has left early with no issues. I'm having a good afternoon. Hope you are too.

I thought that was frowned on in the Leica community. Great equipment though. I think we all secretly put a flash on our M's, but don't admit to it.

You have a very nice view of Paris in 360 ° , at the top of the tower. It is very nice in summer Kodak TX400 (2017) - Summicron 50 (1970) The definition and the black of this film are really superb ! Image1sppariskodtxfeslfht+++-600.jpg Best Henry A dynamic composition with great detail and tones (although personally I would remove the lamp). From a different viewpoint, some consider the tower to be something of an eyesore! Paris 1992, 35mm Ektar 100. Welcome, dear visitor!

There are some purists who point fingers at Eric Kim who uses them for street too. There are Leica users who like to boast of their fast lenses, so they don't have to use flash. I have a big hammerhead dual flash with bracket and SCA, the 40MZ-2 and for my new SLR the 54 MZ-3. I am not being critical at all - it was meant "tongue in cheek" as we say here in UK.

I took some photos of the wedding of my God-fathers daughter in the summer of 2015. They had tea on the lawn beside the church afterwards. It's a lovely informal shot of a Welsh bride. Only a Welsh bride could have tea straight after her wedding! These were taken with the M6 TTL and CZ Sonnar 50/1.5 I think. It was the first summer I returned to film - 2015.
