Overgaard Posted May 14, 2009 Share #1 Posted May 14, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) My Digilux 2 page has been undergoing a few updates and changes, and one particular part some might find interesting is the side-by-side comparisons of Digilux 2 camera files and final Photoshop files of Hans Blix and Maibritt. Have a look, and please sugges changes or improvements if you stumble over anything. The page(s) has been created by adding, adding and adding. So there might be things I haven't noticed. leica.overgaard.dk - Thorsten Overgaard's Leica Sites - Leica Digilux 2 sample photos and tests (as well as Panasonic DMC-LC1) - Page 1 of 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cpclee Posted May 14, 2009 Share #3 Posted May 14, 2009 No wait. There are at least two more secrets unrevealed -- Noelle Scaggs singing and Kira and with Robin! Promised my wife to sell the Digilux 2 once I got the DMR, but now I'm going to have to break her heart :-( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglasco Posted May 14, 2009 Share #5 Posted May 14, 2009 Thorsten, It was your pages that inspired me to get a Digilux 2, I have owned one for the last six months and it is a great camera. I have just bought a D-lux 4 but I will never sell the Digilux. your pages on the Digilux 2 just keep getting better thank you for all of the useful info Doug Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elansprint72 Posted May 14, 2009 Share #7 Posted May 14, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Is the D2 a range-finder camera? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleeson Posted May 15, 2009 Share #8 Posted May 15, 2009 Thanks for keeping this great reference page updated! I've never regretted selling my M8 and it's accessories to get the D2 (and a V-Lux and a used Mercedes!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overgaard Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted May 15, 2009 Is the D2 a range-finder camera? That's good question as rangefinder is defined as "an instrument for estimating the distance of an object, esp. for use with a camera or gun" and a rangefinder camera is defined as a camera deploying such a mechanism to measure the distance. Though I would guess most members understanding is that it's the viewfinder (as alternative to through the lens viewing) that make a rangefinder. Because I would still consider the M9 a rangefinder even if it had AF. Anybody? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overgaard Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share #10 Posted May 15, 2009 Thanks for keeping this great reference page updated! I've never regretted selling my M8 and it's accessories to get the D2 (and a V-Lux and a used Mercedes!) Oh my! One of my questions to my self these days has been "wonder how many upgraded from D2 to M" because I already have a good idea how many bought a D2 after reading the Digilux 2 page. You're ruin my uncertain statistics! Though the Mercedes is a nice car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lesh Posted May 15, 2009 Share #12 Posted May 15, 2009 Thorsten - I'd like to join all the others in extending appreciation to you for all your efforts in creating and maintaining, the essential D2/LC1 resource. The site is one to keep re-visiting as a reference/reminder/inspiration, the more so that you keep adding new nuggets of information and techniques (as in Mmm, I must try shooting that way) Great work, many thanks Les Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest flatfour Posted May 28, 2009 Share #14 Posted May 28, 2009 Is the D2 a range-finder camera? Pete - I have also asked this question. I think it is a rangefinder as the viewfinder shows out of focus areas if the lens barrel is turned to a certain distance. Altering the aperture also affects sharpness. Yes - I have come to the conclusion it is a rangefinder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the latest illustration, it seems inconceivable that the D2 will fit into a school satchel. But I am sure it can and very conveniently, too!

k_g_wolf ✝ Posted July 8, 2009 Share #19 Posted July 8, 2009 >> Thorsten Your site was the reason why I finally bought a DIGILUX 2 as my very first digital experiment. Since then my other cameras are collecting dust because it does everything with ease, where I have to change lenses, films and what not with the others ... Shame, but I never thougt it would be possible to switch to these devil- pixels so fast. Thx also for updating your D2- webpage, it is much appreciated.

RASO Posted July 8, 2009 Share #20 Posted July 8, 2009 After having seen John´s wonderful cameras and bags, I searched the attic and got out my old Ruiter Tassen bags. The small one just takes one D2 with some batteries filters and funny gorilla pod, a 13" but with a squeeze, while the big one takes 2 D2 laptop plus all sorts of stuff I need on my building sites. Bags are pretty worn and cause some ridicule from my girlfriend for not being the height of fashion in this world of messager bags. But who cares. They are indistructable and don´t attract thieves. All I need now is to find a source for John´s and Thorsten´s photographic capabilities. OK I´ll keep on trying.............. Thorsten Thanks for a great site!!!! Welcome, dear visitor!
