[Leica] IMG: LR Conversion

[B. D. COLEN]

Thanks, Howard - It’s good to be back. And I don’t think you’ll regret it. I have previously always done my own conversions, not having found a program I really liked. But TG definitely hooked me - closest thing to film you will find. And I doubt that anyone but a real film shooter can tell the difference between a film image and a digital image converted using TG.

(No, I am not on the TG payroll - I’m just a convert.)

Cheers
B. D.

I’m going to try True Grain too, B.D. Thanks for the lead.

Also, good to see you back “in the saloon”. Poker at the corner table. Come on over.
