Steve Huff sells his M after severe color problems, commits to MM
Good luck with that. Pathetic. The fanboys always go for the ad hominem. Never studied color science, J H C. -

That's your reply? I'm a computer scientist and DSP algorithm designer. Are you frick'n kidding me? Another rank New England Leica fanboy. -

Steve Huff sells his M after severe color problems, commits to MM
um, OK, but ... sounds like bang up color! ok, not severe, just "very unpredictable" and "crazy". move along, there's nothing to see here. Shashin, what's your obsession with minimizing all the bad news and judgments coming out about this camera? steve's not a technical enough guy to... -

Steve Huff sells his M after severe color problems, commits to MM
Oh no, you misunderstand Huff. He's absolutely not a preferred B&W shooter. Repeatedly, he has said that a B&W only camera makes no sense for his style of shooting, at this price level. I've critiqued his B&W samples in the past, the caliber of which, IIRC, some attributed to inexperience with... -

Steve Huff sells his M after severe color problems, commits to MM
After the forums lavished so much attention and praise on Steve Huff's M review, I'm surprised this isn't getting more play: Steve Huff sells his M after severe color problems, commits to MM for the next year. -

How many of the M9 shooters are skipping M240
Metamerism has nothing to do with AWB, or manual white balance for that matter, and could not be addressed in post processing, a firmware upgrade, or a color profile. It will be interesting to read Puts' take, which is imminent on Tao of Leica blog. -

How many of the M9 shooters are skipping M240
Dealer offered me one about 3 weeks ago, almost immediately. Skipped it. I'll wait another 18 to 24 months for the next Leica, likely to offer 36 mp (M360) and a much better color from the sensor + array. Meanwhile enjoying superior image quality with an mm and m9p as color + backup... -

So, How is the M?
I don't know your personal experience, metamerism is an emerging (at least minority) consensus on the technically oriented forums examining severe color problems with the m240, particularly as regards skin tones. Others hold out hope for a firmware fix or magic color profile. I expect Puts... -

So, How is the M?
metamerism, widely suspected. Insufficient separation of colors by the pairing of the CMOSIS sensor's color sensitivity and the Bayer array. This could be among the wages of working with an unproven sensor maker. And the sacrifice of the near century of Kodak's color expertise, particularly... -

Fun with the Leica M Monochrom
I can't make heads or tails of this comment Vivek, frankly. You can read Leica's chart of the MM's spectral sensitivity here: http://www.digoliardi.net/monochrom_color.pdf The MM deep sensitivity into the reds -- moreso than Kodak T-Max -- lower at an earlier point in the spectrum but with a... -

Fun with the Leica M Monochrom
It would be interesting to see some stage shots exposed (or processed) to emphasize skin mid-tones, even at the sacrifice of detail (or accentuation of noise) in the shadows. -

Fun with the Leica M Monochrom
There are plenty of MM's posted in the M images thread. Refreshing to have an MM focused one too.
