Alex,

I'd also suggest using a card reader to download your images, rather than the camera. The USB connection on the camera is really only meant to use for tethered shooting to a computer. In the case of tethering, the data mode is set to External and the camera won't go to sleep.

I use a Lexar USB 3.0 dual card reader with both SD and…[Read more]

I would never cable connect a camera…unless shooting tethered.

Break the connector off goes the camera…break the card reader and replace it in twenty minutes from eight different stores near home, or when traveling.

Thanks Joe. I shot with the S all day today and I agree that the exposure is more accurate. Not sure if this is truly a functional enhancement or wishful thinking 🙂

Either way, it's a fantastic body and the new features just make it more of a pleasure to use.

Enjoy!

Do you find any difference in the EV from the S2 to the new S? I found that my S2 tended to underexpose by -1/3 or so, and my new S camera has been more accurate on exposure.

Are you finding that you need to push all shots by +0.5 EV on your S?

Thanks,
Derek

In fact, this link shows that the latest release candidate for LR4 includes profiles for S lens that haven't even been released yet.

I totally agree with your view: now there is finally a travel solution without much compromise. Couple it with a 180 and you have a nice allround kit.

I have not had the chance yet except the first test done on a dull day.. I love the feel of this Lens with smooth zoom, balance and weight.
The results are superb and with 30mm just 1/2 stop over the fixed one the difference is not noticeable at full 100% on my Mac.
I used 320 ISO f9.5/180. there is no sign of Moire…

any more experience with this lens. How does it work for you, how is the handling, how you get along with the speed? I am getting more interested in it.
Thanks a lot, Tom

I can confirm that these are now shipping in the US. I received mine yesterday.

I slight movement of the switch to select CS or FPS is what the Leica S is all about and it does it well.

Can't wait for the rest but not sure of the delivery order that Leica has in mind.

This is a nice 2012 video to match with the Stefan 2010 Q&A

It is already a year ago since we have been there, but the colors are still amazing to look at.

Great shot's…
