Saludos desde Barcelona Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org] En nombre de MARK DAVISON Enviado el: martes, 28 de noviembre de 2006 17:45 Para: lug@leica-users.org Asunto: [Leica] IMG: some M8 night photographs I have posted some night shots taken with the M8 at http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/MarkEDavison/M8+night+shots These were taken with the M8, a Leica 24 2.8 ASPH and a 77mm (!) Tiffen hot-mirror filter. In part I wanted to see if there would be ghosting or flare around light sources in the photographs, as there have been complaints that using a filter over the lens to suppress IR would create a great deal of flare and unwanted reflections. I don't see that in these examples, although I think I've detected some ghosting in other shots taken nearly into the sun. I have posted rather large images so you can see the detail possible in hand-held night shots. There is an aircraft with landing lights just visible in the first photograph of the series. The photos are rather dark, and this is on purpose. I am trying to match my visual impression of the scene, and not catch shadow detail that I can't see with the naked eye.
