The color saturation determines whether the colors in the picture tend to appear as "pale" and pastellike or "bright" and colorful. While the lighting and weather conditions (hazy/clear) are given as conditions for the picture, there is definite scope for in - fluencing the reproduction here. All three picture properties can be adjusted - independently - to five different levels using the menu control, so that you can set the optimum values for any situation, i.e. the prevailing lighting conditions. In the case of Color Saturation two other options are available - Black+White and Vintage B&W. Note: These settings only affect pictures in one of the JPEG formats. If you select one of the two DNG file formats, these settings have no effect as in this case the picture data is always saved in its original form (changes must be made later on the computer). How? Setting the function 1. In the main menu (see p. 102/119), select Color management (4.1.18), and 2. the desired function in the sub-menu. BTW, if you do not have a manual, or just can not find it, Leica has a download section for a PDF file on the M9. Frank Filippone Red735i at verizon.net Is there a way to shoot basic BW with the M9 or do you have to convert out of the camera? ernie nitka
