xiaubauu2009 Posted January 26, 2018 Share #21 Posted January 26, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Mostly. Although some considered it a feature, not a problem. Jeff Shame on you, I thought we are all Leica Users and will only accept round/elliptical smooth buttery bokeh balls.... this is blasphemy!!!

Advertisement Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 Hi xiaubauu2009, Take a look here Leica S2 and Leica S 006 sensors cracked. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Jeff S Posted January 26, 2018 Share #22 Posted January 26, 2018 Actually I’m not a fan of bokeh bubbles or shapes; as much overdone as wide open, partially out of focus, subjects. Give me me interesting deep DOF shots any day, or gentle background blurring. Harder to fill the frame completely than to twist the aperture ring. Run and duck for cover.

hoppyman Posted January 26, 2018 Share #24 Posted January 26, 2018 ... fix leather covering exchange leather covering ... interesting to read this part. Seems to be a very common problem that the leather covering loosens. In my case (007) this happened already after half a year. Really turns me off to see this sloppy quality .. and even more knowing that this already happened with S2 and 006. in fact the covering is removed for disassembly of the camera for repair and has to be replaced on reassembly.

ynp Posted January 26, 2018 Share #25 Posted January 26, 2018 Pardon my ignorance. How the bokeh can be corrected by a firmware? Does It change the raw file somehow? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddhaarta Posted January 26, 2018 Share #26 Posted January 26, 2018 (edited) Pardon my ignorance. How the bokeh can be corrected by a firmware? Does It change the raw file somehow? Valid question. The aperture blades of the Hasselblad XCD lenses don't open completely at maximum aperture, therefore the hexa-shape. With the firmware update you can choose wether you prefer it that way or complete opening of the blades (round). This is why the firmware update only affects results at max aperture.

ZHNL Posted January 26, 2018 Share #27 Posted January 26, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) To be fair, Both 120 APO and 100cron bokeh show blade edge at certain condition such as close focusing distance with big bokeh ball at background. I tested one 100cron and 2 120APO copy, I think it is not copy but design related. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
