Did any of you guys see the LEICA fotographie with the Noctilux a few issues ago? They has a few pages on it with shots from a Russian Circus. I was really thrown off by the Vignetting on that lens vs the 50/2 in the 3 photos they showed. The Nocti looked far better than the summicron at the f/2 aperture. I guess I didn't expect the cron to have that much even wide open. I do have a question for you guys on Gamma, what are you running 2.2 or 1.8? Since finding out a few years ago that posting photos on the web from a default Mac setup STINKS. I had always set up my Mac with 2.2 gamma instead of the 1.8 default since the majority of users run PCs. For the Mac guy running a 1.8 but aren't all the jpegs you look at online light in the mids since all the PC guys work on the jpegs @ 2.2 gamma? I personally would rather image edit in 1.8 but conformed to 2.2 due to it being the majority. I'm not hacking on the 1.8 Mac guys and it was cool of Brian to do all the extra work posting 2x the amount of picts for us 2.2 users ;) Too bad we haven't got to the point of having your browser and desktop and image editor run on their own gamma settings (I know impossible). - -- John Chicago, IL http://SlideOne.com ==================== - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
