re: Fun with the New Leica M
The Monochrom definitely has the B&W edge, but then it probably should. I just wonder if the APO 50/2 on the M will bring that gap closer. I will do some work on that once my MM gets back from Leica NJ for sensor cleaning and recalibration if needed.It's still early days for B&W conversion, but my impression is that the files behave very well in Silver Efex Pro and it's easier to dodge and burn without adding noise than with M9 files. I don't own an MM, but have had the chance to shoot with one on a few occasions. From those experiences I feel confident in saying that the MM still has an edge in monochrome, although the gap has closed significantly.
