Every which way you can think of … daylight, tungsten, flash, strobes, mixed light, low-light, noon, twilight, sunset, moonlight, streetlights. I had the camera for 2 weeks and I wrung it out shooting the stuff I face all the time. But the most important thing was shooting people and how the M240 rendered skin.Hi Marc,
which raw converter did you use in your comparisons?
And are you mainly talking about daylight or artificial light or both?
I am not questioning anybodys findings about M9 vs M but I am trying to make a decision for myself between the two and my findings are not so clear in one direction.
Had the latest firmware installed when I tried it.
Loved the camera and wanted to like the files … but I didn't.
I primarily use Lightroom, and I am NOT learning something else just for one camera … I can get what I want out of Lightroom with all my other cameras including the Leica S2 and my previous M9 and Hassey H4D/60, and all the CMOS Sonys.
I have the need, the need for speed … and Lightroom is f a s t
It is purely subjective … personally I do not like the way the M240 renders color out of the camera, and especially do not like the skin tones … I see people raving about some shot with the subjects sporting skin tones not found in nature … unless they were shot shortly after a nuclear denotation IMO, fixing that is hard work.
Addendum: I think there are those who get nice images from the M240, even decent skin tones … I just couldn't without a lot of work, and I still see a lot of M240 shots that are just to "hot" for my tastes.
