Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted November 24, 2016 Share #21 Posted November 24, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Sure, but then you need a camera system to implement that preference, which in this case would not be medium format. You really want an M, too, but just don't want to admit it (or maybe you're still learning the tradeoffs between MF and 35mm).

Advertisement Posted November 24, 2016 Posted November 24, 2016 Hi Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS, Take a look here Noctilux for the S007. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

Jeff if Leica came out with a new M with built in IVF and 36plus Megabytes then I would get one along with a 1.0 Noctilux and live happily ever after [emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7][emoji7] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted November 24, 2016 Share #23 Posted November 24, 2016 It would not be an M with an EVF, why did you buy the f0.95 when you now want the f1.0? I have both and they are pleasantly different to each other, but no way is 14bit FF comparable to 16bit MFD...... john Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

erlingmm Posted November 24, 2016 Share #26 Posted November 24, 2016 I do not understand this quest for a Noctilux on the S. DOF is much thinner on MF than on FF, and the 100mm at 2.0, the 120 at 2,5 or the 180 at 3,5 (close distance) are "functionally Noctilux" on the S in my opinion, already difficult to handle for portraits, unless you want only one eye in focus.

mgrayson3 Posted November 24, 2016 Share #27 Posted November 24, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) This is wide open with the 120/2.5. Maybe not Noctilux, but pretty shallow DoF.. --Matt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McMaster Posted November 24, 2016 Share #29 Posted November 24, 2016 So what drives your reasons? Just cost? Why is the S better than a D810/A7RII/5DSR as the latter all have higher pixel counts? john Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff S Posted November 24, 2016 Share #30 Posted November 24, 2016 good morning Happy thanksgiving Same to you. Yes, I'm off to a nice family gathering. No cameras, just good times. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Unless the new M has a 47 x 38 inch sensor I am not interested in the M." [bTW, unless you mean mm, that's one HUGE sensor!!] It's really not all about sensor size after all. Again, tradeoffs.

Why is the S better than a D810/A7RII/5DSR as the latter all have higher pixel counts? john Because you cant share pictures or chat about a D810/A7R (I have both) on the Leica Forum................I like the chit chat and the banter here on the Leica Forum so obvisoly if I'm chatting on here then the obvious thing is to use Leica equipment. I'm hoping that the Leica Forum will open up a wee section (Mods) for the X1D folks as I really think that camera is going to take off, and quite a lot of the guys on here will probably get one.
