I would say there isn't one ^^I never understand the need/ purpose to look at files at more than 100%

The obvious reason is so that you can draw conclusions to justify whatever decision you were pre-disposed to make in the first place. I hope you're not suggesting we should be limiting ourselves to what might be visible in the real world. The more pertinent question, I think, is why limit yourself to 800% On a more serious note, there hasn't been much discussion of the Leaf offerings lately (or perhaps I missed it). I loved my Leaf Aptus 75S and still think it's one of the finest MFDB's out there. I for one would appreciate an update as to what Leaf has been up to lately and what they have planned for the future.I never understand the need/ purpose to look at files at more than 100%
While I agree with your comment in principle, in actual use going to 200% can help you better evaluate and refine global capture or output sharpening settings in raw or post. Going higher still definitely makes it an easier task to edit certain things in CS. But yes, there's no aesthetic to gain by doing so...I never understand the need/ purpose to look at files at more than 100%
It depends on how far away from the screen you are standing.While I agree with your comment in principle, in actual use going to 200% can help you better evaluate and refine global capture or output sharpening settings in raw or post.

great for spor removal.I never understand the need/ purpose to look at files at more than 100%
what?Remember the 100% is already interpolated in Bayer matrix, so only 50% view is 'as taken'

I suspect Victor is referring to Nyquist sampling, which is generally accepted as a 50% fold-back at frequencies higher than Nyquist. But the fold-back is across the Nyquist limit itself, so the actual net sampling error is variable depending on output frequency, not fixed at 50%. Bayer color is indeed interpolated down to individual RGB values from an RGBG data matrix.what?
I agree. I am viewing at 50% for printing purposes as well. However 1 Pixel is 1 Pixel and independent of the print resolution that is 100%...?I have found that viewing at "Print Size" (with CS calibrated to be exact print size for the dot pitch of my monitor) is not nearly as accurate a representation for final print detail as viewing the final print version at 50%; for whatever reason, viewing at 50% seems to generate a more realistic representation of final print detail.
Thanks Jack, that really clears things up...I suspect Victor is referring to Nyquist sampling, which is generally accepted as a 50% fold-back at frequencies higher than Nyquist.

My .02,
Why would you airbrush yourself? You're not that bad looking.I only go past 100 % to airbrush myself.
Minority report here Carsten: the day I shot the S2 and the P45+ at the same time, the P45+ tethering crashed constantly (sometimes, about 15% of the time in my experience, it does that) and at one point I had to restart Capture One and re-plug the firewire cable for every shot until I gave up. Whereas the S2 tethering just worked.Nice review, and it is nice to have most of my initial impressions (from reading only) and hopes confirmed.
It also pains me to hear the tethering problems confirmed, both on Leica's and on my own (unrealistic) behalf. I really hope that the gap between today and when the camera goes out the door Leica can at least double the size of the buffer (or halve the image size), and get the tethering up to near-USB-theoretical-max speeds, which should be close enough to FW not to be a factor.
Just do it! I thought, when I purchased my Cube, that it was a luxury. In fact it is the single best designed and performing piece of photographic equipment I have ever used... and it feeeeeels soooo niiiiiice.......!And they had a Cube there. I am fairly certain that within 60 days, my assimilation will be complete.
