[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Hi Larry, I agree with you and Ted's comments, I've never reach a scanned picture with the same quality as a enlargment on the darkroom, and a similar thing happens with the lenses, with the biger enlargments we can appreciate the difference on quality, maybe for this reason I post very few slides, because I'm always deveived to see the scanned results when I compare with what I see on the screen. On my LUG gallery I have shots with a Rollei 35S, Olympus mju, Rolleiflex TLR 6x6 and Leica, there are not big differences on a monitor. I usually think that in the future the darkroom enlargements will be appreciated as handcraft work, I think too that the taste of the new generations could be modified by the effect of the manipulated digital prints, obtaining artificial effects on colours, details, skyes... Thanks for your comments 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 Lawrence Zeitlin Enviado el: s?bado, 10 de marzo de 2007 16:14 Para: lug@leica-users.org; lug-request@leica-users.org Asunto: [Leica] Re: Luis' pictures I know that I'm supposed to be seeing some differences in quality and rendering, and possibly bokeh, with the different lenses, but on my laptop screen the image quality is almost identical. Good - but hardly any differences that can be ascribed to lenses. With the exception of the 21 mm Elmarit picture, all could be taken with a normal lens on almost any quality 35mm camera, even my Rollei 35. The composition and catching the decisive moment aspects of Luis' photography are up to their usual excellent standard but viewing the pictures on a 12" screen leads me to wonder if Leica glass is really worth the bother for internet presentation. Or is it my eyes and judgment?
