    I'm ordering mine today. Have always wanted a Leica (this is my first) – I'm a long time Nikon shooter and for the last two years, been shooting Fuji. But taking the plunge today. New to this forum too.

      OS X Yosemite definitely has the issue. Older version probably have it as well, but this hasn't been confirmed to my knowledge.

      While there are certainly other programs that can open Leica DNG files, I've found the best results from Adobe Lightroom. Leica has been working closely with Adobe since 2008 and all Leica cameras come bundled with Lightroom.

    Hi Woodrow,

    Thanks for posting this lovely set of images.

    For the sake of perspective would you mind tagging the images with the aperture used, shutter speed used, as well as some basic notes on the lighting set up?

    Thanks,

    Giorgio
