Leica Digital

 M9
The digital M9
 The combination of an extremely high-resolution sensor, high performance M-Lenses and careful processing of the digital data provides the best picture results under all conditions with the LEICA M9. The easy handling and simple menus of the camera allow the photographer to concentrate on taking the pictures and not the controls.
 Sensor
Kodak's proprietary CCD Sensor for the LEICA M9 is optimized for the unique optical consideration of the Leica M-Lens System. With the extremely high resolution of the sensor, the LEICA M9 delivers outstanding image quality. With the sensor in the M9, we have continued the development of offset microlens to precisely match the imaging characteristics of M System lenses. The microlens design has been optimized to accept light striking the sensor at oblique angles and reduce vignetting, allowing existing Leica M-Lenses to retain full compatibility in digital capture. A low pass or anti-aliasing filter that eliminates fine detail, was deliberately excluded from the design to fully benefit from the high resolution of Leica M-Lenses. Any Moire patterns are eliminated by the digital signal processing of the camera. The optimized pixel size of the CCD sensor reduces the need for digital post processing and produces an unequaled natural picture effect. Rich contrast, extremely high resolution and natural colours are the result across the entire frame.
Lenses
With the LEICA M9, all the Leica M-Lenses offer the same angle of view as on an analog camera. For the first time, the full potentional of M-Lenses can be realized on a digital camera. Continuing the tradition of system compatibility, almost all Leica M-Lenses since 1954 can be used on the M9. Utilizing high precision mechanics and optics, the current range of Leica M-Lenses offer extraordinarily high quality and are ideally suited for digital photography. Leica's tight tolerances and quality standards, applied to the individual components of every lens, guarantees that every lens meets the strict requirements for digital photography.
The extremely efficient sensor of the M9 demands high resolution, all of the new M-Lenses exceed this requirement. The excellent correction of optical defects and the high resolution make these lenses ideal for digital photography. The current M-lenses are delivered with 6-bit coding on the bayonet, that is optically read by the M9. With this information, the M9 can compensate for vignetting. Lens information is included in the EXIF data of the file and in system flashes like the LEICA SF58, the reflector position is automatically adjusted to the focal length of the lens.

|
Viewfinder
The Leica
rangefinder system distinguishes the LEICA M9 from the single-lens reflex cameras and compact cameras. The rangefinder is ideal for reportage, available light and discrete and unobtrusive photography.
The accuracy of the rangefinder on the Leica M9 is independent of the lens. Therefore, its accuracy with a wide angle lens is 4 times greater than a single lens reflex camera. The high contrast rangefinder patch in the middle of the viewfinder guarantees fast, precise, and exact focusing even in extremely low light.
|
Shutter
The Leica M9 controls a new especially quiet laminent shutter blades, controlled by a microprocessor, that enables exposure time to 1/4000 second. Even in bright environments, the photographer retains the freedom to utilize the selective focus of an open aperture. Through the flash sync time of 1/180 second, daylight flash use is possible.

X1
Craftsmanship
The LEICA X1 boasts of superior ruggedness and durability with its aluminium top and bottom plates, magnesium body and aluminium dials to withstand the rigors of everyday use.
Sensor
The LEICA X1 has the world's largest sensor in a compact camera. The CMOS sensor which is 23.6 x 15.7 mm is 30% larger than its closest competitor. The LEICA X1 offers the DSLR quality in a compact camera with its 12.2 mega pixels. The sensor offers sharp pictures in low light conditions making it a perfect compact tool for professional photographers.
Lens
The LEICA ELMARIT 1:2.8/24 ASPH is an outstanding performing lens with its 8 glass elements with 1 aspherical surface. Leica quality: unsurpassed resolution, sharpness, colour fidelity and contrast - even at maximum aperture. With an image stabilizer and an ISO range from 100~3200, the LEICA X1 offers creative options in available light even under low light conditions.
Autofocus
The LEICA X1 autofocus is quick and versatile. It automatically adjusts focus and exposure. It has a 11 point autofocus system with Face Detection. The LEICA X1 allows the photographer to capture special moments and fleeting expressions with greater accuracy, taking a series of shots and choosing the best one. The photographer can capture 3 frames per second shooting speed, either in DNG or JPEG format. It is the fastest in its class.
Handling
The LEICA X1 offers straightforward controls making it easy for both amateur and professional photographer. The numerous automatic functions and manual settings of the LEICA X1 gives the photographer options. The photographer can choose the easy way and let the camera take over the exposure or shutter settings in the automatic mode or switch over to manual controls by using the wheels on the top of the camera. The LEICA X1 gives the photographer full control for creativity while providing the automatic mode for quick response.
Software
The LEICA X1 comes with the online download of the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, a professional digital Workflow solution for the Apple Mac OS X and Microsoft. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom offers extensive functions for the administration, preparation and edition of digital pictures, JPEG or in the DNG format. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom with its fine control possibilities guarantees quality. At the same time, the 14-bit colour information delivered by the CMOS sensor is preserved in the 16-bit workflow
