thanx guys!!! so, the preset on the first pic is VSCO Kodak Royal 400... and then I tune it the way i think it works with the pic. This time I forgot to remove some of the preset grain... btw, I dropped my m240 and the rangefinder is a bit off, so when I shoot I have to get it in focus and then reverse 1 or 2 mm lol will send it to germany soon... the second photo is again RNI preset Vintage technicolor 2 that needs even more adjustment. It works with some pics but very often not hahah hehe, it doesn't show here but in NY pic it was really cloudy and the skyscrapers were in clouds and mist or smog or whatever... LA was mostly sunny but this preset that I used made this wierd faded pale blue sky color... I like to goof around with presets but in truth, the less the better... On most of my pics I just go with Portra preset and it is really close to what comes out of camera as a default, just adds a bit of flavour... Cheers, S

Thank you!! The lens was 28mm voigtlander ultron on all the photos... I have some film presets but I tune them as I see fits the given image... RNI presets... http://reallyniceimages.com I am not really happy how the presets work as they come, it really needs some fine tuning. But they are a good start... Btw. I had written it somewhere before, this 28mm voigtlander tends to throw some purple cast, most often on the right side of the frame. Easy to remove but good to know if someone is planing on getting one... I love the lens, small and fast, really sharp... I think I will love it even more on a film camera... still haven't tried it with film... cheers, S

D.D. by Silvester Franz, on Flickr M.B. by Silvester Franz, on Flickr it was like that when we came... by Silvester Franz, on Flickr Couple more pics from lake Bohinj in Slovenija...

I have tried different presets on the camera, manually selecting different types of lens profiles... Noticed mainly big difference in vignetting... Will try more what it does to color cast in my setup... One thing I have not tested, does different lens profiles effect only JPEG or the RAW file too???

hi, seems to me it is the same problem as with some voigtlander glass, mainly wide angle lenses. if the same lens is used on a film camera it will perform perfect but on a digital camera this is what happens, but not in all light conditions... something to do with the rear piece of glass being to close to the sensor and reflecting some light or something like that, google for more info... identical problem happens to me with my voigtlander 28mm f2 ultron... and 21mm f4 the old 15mm were even worst, but the newer 15mm and wider lenses have been redesigned to prevent that, but now they are much bulkier... about the cast - i got used to it, easy to remove in post... samples corrected Bohinj lake by Silvester Franz, on Flickr not corrected color cast on the right by Silvester Franz, on Flickr sometimes it is much more noticeable... but again, if it is some other issue I really want to know also cheers, S

just rent a camera for a week and try it out yourself, to much fairy tales here ))

Thank you sir
