[Leica] [OM] IMGS: Baracoa, + Banding?

[Nathan Wajsman]

Banding sometimes happens with my M8 in similar situations. I am frankly surprised to see that the much newer MM, with its larger sensor and price tag to match, is afflicted by the same problem.

As far as dealing with it—unless it is a particularly precious photo, I usually just shrug my shoulders and hit the delete button. In general, if I know in advance that I will be shooting in very low light, I use my Fuji X-T1 instead.

Cheers,
Nathan
