Over the last 2 weeks since I got my M8, I've been (like most here) trying to figure out how to get the best quality out of it. I've played with LightRoom, Capture One, SilkyPix, RAW Developer, Photoshop 3/ACR, BibblePro, just about everything I can get free or for a demo. Whilst playing with these I noticed that some tools required a little more "tweaking" than others, what I really found interesting was how differently these tools rendered the DNG files. So I selected a picture (nothing exotic about it other than that I was wearing a magenta shirt!) and "developed" it in each of the above programs, a little Photoshoping and this is the result: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/carlmuck/PlayingwithM8/Developer- L1000110.jpg.html All I did was open the file, using the defaults and do an "auto WB." The results were quite interesting. I had expected to have pretty similar results, you can see that there is quite a bit of difference. c.
