[Leica] Leica Digilux - ON TOPIC!! :-)

[Peter Dzwig <pdzwig@summaventures.com>]

Dear List,

went out with my Digilux and my IIIf for a walk over the hills to 
photograph thills and the fog - and because the dog wanted a walk :-) .

Started shooting mostly with the IIIf, then switched to the Digilux and 
got a terrible series of white - OK "fogged" - images where there was 
only thin fog covering hills, with detail in it .....was using manual 
settings with weighted averaging so it should have performed like a 
digital version of a real camera.

It looks like there might be a problem with the camera in responding to 
situations with high scattered light content. I notice that on the 
bright autumn days that we have had here recently the blue content of 
images with misty sky or similar content has been quite high - more than 
I would expect.

Anyone any thoughts on this? Anyone any similar experiences? I am 
perfectly willing to admit that it may be photgrapher fault, but reckon 
I can fairly discount that.

I am sure that the IIIf will perform faultlessly as usual - in B&W of 
course!
