It really does feel like we have an unfair advantage these days!! Tina: The battery life is MUCH better than the original Monochrome. Another surprise is that I actually find myself <gasp> using the live view. Leland -------------------------------------- I look at the amazing capture qualities in these frames and am blown away with them. And digital to boot! Oh where was all this magical gear when I'd go on assignment and take 500 rolls of film, sometimes more ... "just in case?" You never knew when, where or how long the assignment may be? Or finish it and before returning home sent off to another location or country. Always a constant roll count of how much you had left that wasn't exposed. A couple or more of these camera models and four cards then throw me at the world and I'd be laughing all the way! :-) :-) Thanks Leland for the amazing samples. cheers, Dr. ted :-) -----Original Message----- From: LUG [mailto:lug-bounces+tedgrant=shaw.ca at leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Leland Deane Sent: January-10-16 10:29 AM To: lug at leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] New Monochrome with 35 mm 1.4 goes to Florida to see inlays My recent trip to Florida with my new 'friend'-----At the auto ISO setting, this camera is scary in the way it can handle very difficult lighting.

Thanks for looking. Leland
