Yeah, not bad at all. What's SPP, again?

SPP... Is that SilkyPix?

 

[M4streetshooter]

Well, I'm hoping it's Sigma Photo Pro....
It does get a better dynamic range than the other
stuff I use....

Try pushing it +1 or +2 ie. iso800, underexpose by 1 or 2 stops, then over exposing back +1 or 2 stops in SPP. effectively iso1600 or 3200.

Here's a recent one.

 

[M4streetshooter]

Thats what I did. Sometimes I don't bring it all the way back
in processing.....

So what's the verdict? IQ worth the quirks or pain in butt?

 

[M4streetshooter]

It's really a no brainer.
The camera is great an it makes great
IQ. I like it better than my M cameras,
in fact better than all of them.
I got a romance going fer sure...

I really enjoy mine after getting over the quirks but I wouldn't say it's THE camera for me. I enjoy them all - depending on mood! ; )

Here's one pushed to 3200

Not to highjack the thread, but I have to admit, I really enjoy mine. Low ISO's, the detail and 'smoothness' is remarkable. I typically keep it in color. At high ISO, the black and white really work for me.

Here is a shot taken hand held 1/20, F4, ISO 800, with EV dialed in -1.0. In PP, I brought the exposure back to 0. Effectively, ISO 1600.
