Archer911 Posted February 23, 2020 Share #581 Posted February 23, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) This image straight from the M10 except the crop. Lens was at .95 but data says f4. Same with all the other images as the data never seems to agree with what the lens says. I use Photos on a Mac so no Lightroom, etc. Anyone else had this issue with incorrect aperture data?

Yes, the Photos information is frequently not accurate as to the aperture. Rob 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I truly mean this as I too own an original f1.2 Noctilux and I find this lens can have a mind of its own to be able to capture the image as beautifully as you did, and you really did show us all that when the 1.2 Noct is on its game it is a wonderful and magical lens. I find though it is not always this good and for the most part I shoot with my F1 Noctilux or the new 75 1.25 Noctilux. Thank you again for sharing such a stunning photograph.

Thanks It estimates the f-stop from the amount of light that passes through the lens. If you shot with a 3 or 4 stop ND filter it would explain the reported f4. As an aside, the mis-estimated f-stop probably means that lens corrections applied by the camera will be weaker (assuming a coded lens). For example, if you shoot wide-open with an ND filter there will probably be more vignetting left in the raw file than if shooting wide open without the filter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, if you shoot wide-open with an ND filter there will probably be more vignetting left in the raw file than if shooting wide open without the filter. I understand where you're coming from but it's very unlikely because the vignetting correction is applied to wide angle lenses to adjust for the offset pixels at the edge of the sensor, which compensate for the rays that hit towards the sensor's edge at an oblique angle owing to the (short) Leica M lens register of 27.8 mm. On the other hand, the Noctilux's characteristic vignetting is caused by rays at the lens's edge being diffracted and attenuated by a larger amount, which appears as vignetting.

As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! @evikne these photographs of your beautiful (daughter?) are an outstanding collection of portraits that you will have now forever. Time goes by quickly and in the blink of an eye they are all grown up and gone. The shots (imho) are a also a beautiful reminder of just how useful a lens can be in drawing attention to subject matter the you want attention focused on - painterly use of light..thank you for sharing. @farnz the railway series was beyond excellent and firmly in the realms of cinematographic - wonderful - thanks for sharing Pete. I recently sold my 0.95 - the third time I have sold a Noctilux over 20 years and I regret it (again) - so I will buy one back as soon as a copy becomes available. It is a unique lens - far from perfect in many ways, frustrating to use wide open in daylight because of the ND requirement but worth the hassle if one has use for its unique drawing capability. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting to test if there is any correction applied for the 50mm Noctilux lenses. I have tried this before with a 262 and 50mm Summilux, and there appeared to be a small vignetting correction being made. Maybe it was from the raw processing an not in-camera?

Personally I have not noticed a difference in vignetting in wide open 50/1 Noctilux pictures whether the lens was selected in the camera's menu or not. Pete.

No ND filter but a circular polarizer, the B+W XS-Pro Digital. Do you think this could cause a misread? I will test without the filter to verify. Thanks Mark.
