Never said you canвЂ™t do microcontrast adjustments in post. I used my Noctilux to shoot lowlight images with film, many of live music in a caffe. What on earth does screen resolution have to do with anything in this regard? Do you think IвЂ™m simply viewing images on a screen, and limited to the screen displaying the entire file? Do you not understand terms like DPI (dots per inch) or PPP (pixels per inch)? From your question, I have to assume thatвЂ™s a yes you donвЂ™t.

Now, no at ISO say 20,000 even with a D5, and a good lens, hairs become much less individually perceptible. Just by way of example put a decent Nikon lens (say f/1.4 85mm) on the D810, shoot raw at say ISO 1600, so two stops beyond 400, focus correctly on a person 8 feet away, and itвЂ™s easy to see individual hairs and fine threads in clothing.

Especially as depth of field at full aperture is so tiny. So apart from the higher native micro-contrast modern M lenses possess which can be duplicated in post on a much cheaper lens' file, there is no advantage possible in using an expensive lens like this at all. The first is that shutter lag on a digital M240 etc is around a 1/15th second, way too slow to capture that exact moment you want in poor light, and second, that even on a modern sensor digital noise above about 400 ISO on even the best sensors available, destroys fine detail. There are reasons that escape you for this. And I'll post a few from a beater f1.4 Nikkor on a D800 (cost ВЈ70) When you have gone out and bought a Leitz 50mm like the one here and used it on your digital M body, after several weeks or months use, by all means we'd all love to see what benefit it has in low light levels relative to any ordinary 50 f1.8 lens! Go right ahead, and you will find that in low light at full aperture there is none. IF you are a reportage Leica photographer in training, you are these days necessarily bankrupted by the cost of basic equipment, which were it at Nikon prices you afford. This affects everyone as Leitz and Zeiss prices should be reduced to enable photographers to actually be able to afford to use them. It has been /is spreading out from the Leitz/Zeiss axis of evil through the industry and now you have Sigma, and Samyang upping the cost to match Nikkor and Pentax and Sony prices which are themselves disproportionate.

Manual focus single focal length lenses are very easy to make at a pittance, they need no AF mechanisms, have no zoom nor in most cases any active electronics, yet are priced as though they were gold or diamonds, now, but this is a recent trend. Where I parted company with snob/class based pricing 50 years ago was the result of knowing that manufacturing costs are disproportionate. Of course everyone should have the best equipment. in red anodised finish is scheduled to be available from 9 December 2016, at a suggested retail price of ВЈ7,575 including VAT.
