jankap Posted June 7, 2015 Share #27 Posted June 7, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Personally, I prefer the M9 one. It documents nature better. It is soft. But the M7 one is better, if one likes coarse pictures. It expresses, that "Mountain climbing is something for real men and women", so to say.

Jan ... but the grass and pasture is smooth in contrast to film with its silver grains , more true Another nuance and note , the fog is only by the upper right, or because of the contre-jour , there is a "veil" over the whole mountain, which is incorrect. Thank you for comment much appreciated Jan. Best Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkarusJohn Posted June 7, 2015 Share #29 Posted June 7, 2015 I know you haven't asked this question, Henry, but I also prefer the image with the 28 Summicron despite the flare. The framing and composition is more pleasing somehow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The framing and composition is more pleasing somehow. John , as said one renowned photographer, "It's all about nuance" .... photo is not "similimum" what we see ? This reminds me of listening to Vinyl discs, which better recalls the reality of an instrument per ex. piano, with a natural sound , soft and not aggressive in the treble and upper midrange , with harmonics of the chord on the piano struck by the hammer of the keyboard. Digital picture is well for the immediate side but not without feeling side .... Finally as you know , "dynamic" of film is better versus digital sensor and film is more sensitive You said "nuance" ?

IkarusJohn Posted June 8, 2015 Share #32 Posted June 8, 2015 Just lovely, Henry. Contre jour is fine. Film has feeling. I love the 28 field of view. I'm not sure I buy the vinyl/digital thing. Much like film, vinyl was around for about 70 years or so as the only choice. Early days for digital - it will develop into its own thing. For the moment, it is close. I have a Roksan CD transport, Musical Fidelity M1clic, Musical Fidelity X-P100 pre-amp, X-A200 cans driving B&W 803 speakers. Works for me. Vinyl just introduces distortion of its own with scratches, warping and wearing out. Perhaps I'm lazy, or just used to listening to music on my iPhone ...

Doc Henry Posted June 8, 2015 Author Share #33 Posted June 8, 2015 John, if you don't want to use the vinyl disk , try to listen SACD (Super Audio CD) , it is better than CDs, softer and it is very similar to Vinyl.The Vinyl with good reading coil reproduces better the "nuances" of interpretation, more depth, natural (such as film photo)I listen only classical music and jazz. The piano and voice are well reproduced by vinyl, better than the CD too much aggressive, too hard.... Vinyls begins to be sold everywhere *My equipment : Thorens Platinum MKII with SME MKII arm and Denon or Ortofon moving coil, Pre-preamp. Bird with batteries, Audio Research (AR) valves preamp., AR amplifier tubes, Pioneer SACD player, loudspeakers Lowther Audiovector. BW speakers are good but need a high power amplifier (yield or efficiency < 90 db). Rocksan is also a vinyl platinum brand isn't ?

IkarusJohn Posted June 8, 2015 Share #34 Posted June 8, 2015 Yes, Roksan made turntables. This was their first CD transport. I rather like it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
