barnabythebear Posted March 7, 2022 Share #1 Posted March 7, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hiya, Seriously considering a CL with the 11-23mm lens. Are there any sample raw files from this lens on the net anywhere. I usually look at samples from DP Review but I can't find any. Thank you, Nige.

Advertisement Posted March 7, 2022 Posted March 7, 2022 Hi barnabythebear, Take a look here TL 11-23 raw samples. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Le Chef Posted March 7, 2022 Share #2 Posted March 7, 2022 You might want to look at LFI and the T/TL/TL2/CL section for shots taken using the 11-23. I "think" they carry RAW data but I'm not sure. I only shoot RAW but of course every shot here is converted to jpeg. On an entirely subjective level I put this lens just behind the 28mm f1.7 lens on the Q/Q2 and a little ahead of the 55-135 lens. I've not used the TL 35mm so can't comment. But the 11-23 for me makes shooting feel like an occasion and I'm usually happier with a higher % of shots from this lens than others. Would I buy it again? Without question. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnabythebear Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted March 8, 2022 Hi, Thanks for the response. I found a few on DP Review under their samples section for the TL2. Looking at the files, my only concern is the noise: https://www.dpreview.com/sample-galleries/1258823096/leica-tl2-sample-gallery/2246061199 How did you find the low light performance? Were you using the CL? Many thanks, Nige. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommonego@gmail.com Posted March 8, 2022 Share #4 Posted March 8, 2022 I think the 11-23 is my best lens on the CL, love the results. I still use the 23 for low light and smallish size, though the 11-23 is better at 23mm. Anyway this lens is a keeper. Low light on the CL, good at 800, decent at 1600, OK at 3200, fairly noisy at 6400. The DNG files are so nice at ISO 100-400 I try to stay there. There are several threads on using denoise software here, I haven't. I compared files at 3200 ISO with an M-P 240 and the CL the CL was better with no banding. I do maybe 10% of my photos above 400, I'll hand hold to 1/8 of a second, put on the 23 and use f2 or f2.8. At 11mm on the 11-23 it is f3.5, here a larger lens helps holding the camera steady. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rac1ngsnak3 Posted March 11, 2022 Share #7 Posted March 11, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Have only an 11-23 on my TL2 and it shoots superbly. IQ is 9/10. Here are some shots I recently took. My 2 gripes with the lens are it’s size and speed. Welcome, dear visitor!

JayBird Posted March 12, 2022 Share #9 Posted March 12, 2022 I have to agree about the quality of the 11-23. Of the 3 lenses I have for the CL, it probably spends the most time on the camera. The next most used lens is the 18-56. I find it to be a good all round travel lens. Here is a shot from a local car show. 13mm, ISO 200, f7.1, 1/13 second. Welcome, dear visitor!

swatch Posted July 1, 2024 Share #10 Posted July 1, 2024 have lately brought 11-23 to 3-day short trip and it is a great option for light travel with just one lens. Welcome, dear visitor!
