You are well on your way to that beautiful friendship with your XE 1. Thanks for posting. Howard Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 13:26:34 -0500 From: Jim Nichols <jhnichols at lighttube.net> Subject: [Leica] IMG: Caught the Tiger To: "LUG at Leica-Users.org" <lug at leica-users.org> Getting some experience with the Leica Elmarit-R 60mm Macro on the X-E1. Shooting with Auto ISO works fine, and allows me to set a shutter speed to avoid movements of the camera and the subject. An aperture of f/4 is about the right compromise between ease of focusing and a desirable DoF. Finally caught up with the Tiger Swallowtail in a proper pose. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/Caught+the+Tiger.jpg.html Comments and critiques welcomed. An earlier post of the camera/lens combination did not appear in LUG mail at my computer.
