This is a completely accurate statement, and applies to all online viewing. Take a photo off the internet and print it. Look at what you get. Online photos all are severely downrezed. -----Original Message----- From: jon.streeter Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2012 12:24 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Review of Fuji's new X-E1 with zoom lens. Is this why X100 images compare favorably with those from digital M when seen on line, or is it because images viewed on line really can't be seen in enough detail to-be judged?

Date: Sun, Nov 11, 2012 10:12 am Mark. Back in film days, the Leica quality was always with the lens. All cameras could shoot the same film and vary the exposure the same way. The lenses made the difference. Now, with digital, there is one more variable between cameras. The sensor and firmware replace the universally available film. Leica has to get that part at least as good as the competition for the lenses to make the difference again. Hope they can do it with the M and CMOS. They are competing with the big boys who have big bucks and lots of years of experience.
