[Leica] Learning the SL

[Mark Rabiner]

Though someday I’d love to play with a Bayerless monochrome camera and play with filters again if I can find mine I had a million of them in every size you can think of but in the meanwhile watching the image change when I move the various color sliders is more fun than anything.
Makes me sad that Ansel and so many of the other past darkroom masters could not have been around quite long enough to be able to experience working this way.

Right now, I’m Bayerless only in the sense that I’ve switched to Tylenol.

    It is amazing, isn't it?
    Th SL isn't medium format: it's the same sensor, closely, to the M9-1/2 &
    M10.
    The S is closer to MF than any other Leica.
    But in this case, size doesn't matter...
