rf382 Posted May 10, 2008 Share #1 Posted May 10, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Having recently bought my first Leica, an M3, and being absolutely delighted with it, I decided to update my digital equipment, and am now the happy owner of a V-lux 1. One of the first pictures I took with it was of the Gas Pressure Regulator on our Propane Tank. Hope you like it. David. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leica dream Posted May 10, 2008 Share #2 Posted May 10, 2008 Excellent clarity David. I got a V-lux1 a month or so back but still struggling for quality. Perhaps I should go back to some sort of basics. Richard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shakey Posted May 14, 2008 Share #3 Posted May 14, 2008 The sharpness seems to be spot on. How does the image hold up at its maximum size? I've used a Leica M2 for years and have been spoiled with the quality of the lenses. I seldom print beyond 16x20 and more often than not 11x14, or 8x10. How does the V-Lux1 hold up in the real world? I'm not thrilled with the size of the system, but I'm not in a position to buy an M8. I travel by motorcycle often and prefer a smaller camera. To date I've been using a D-Lux2, but would really like to have a viewfinder. Sunlight is a bear with the LCD based viewing system. I may end up having to replace my D-Lux2 with the D-lux3 just to keep the size down. Any thoughts on the V-Lux1 image quality? How much in camera software manipulation is performed by the camera automatically? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rf382 Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share #5 Posted May 14, 2008 Thank you for the kind remarks. There have been a few comments lately, on this and other threads, about the sharpness and image quality of the v-lux 1. This image was taken at ISO 100, f/11, 1/200 sec. I have just made an A4 print, and inspected it with a magnifying glass; it is sharp. I really like my v-lux 1 and together with my M3, I am looking forward to many years of rewarding photography.
