Panoramic with the D-Lux

You access the panoramic feature of the Leica D-ux (Type 109) via the drive menu – it’s right up the end of the list. The Panasonic Lumix LX100 works the same way. The camera fires off numerous frames and stitches them together for you. I haven’t really had a lot of time to analyse theContinue reading “Panoramic with the D-Lux”

4K on the D-Lux

I bought my Leica on a Friday, so on Saturday I made a video – a very short, unremarkable video. Except it tracks along, as though on a slider, stops when I’ve walked into the frame and wave, then starts sliding again. http://vimeo.com/113185459 I sent it to a couple of filmmaker mates who’d both pickedContinue reading “4K on the D-Lux”

But I’m shocked at the reviews, opinion and comments which are quite wrong. So here are the things I’m finding,Continue reading “Leica D-Lux (Type 109) and Panasonic LX100 misinformation”

Day 1 with OM-D EM-1 & m.zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8

I’ve quipped with people that the M.Zuiko 12-24 f/2.8 is $2300, the same price (Australian) price as the Canon 24-70 f/2.8L lens* – except when you buy the Olympus, they throw in their latest to-of-the-range camera body. That’s what I paid for the EM-1 & 12-40, and so far I’m very impressed. The lens isContinue reading “Day 1 with OM-D EM-1 & m.zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8”
