My naga is on its last legs, lasted a lot longer than most mice I use, roughly 12 hours a day, the slick coverings on the base are now falling off.
My choice is buy another naga or the logitec G600 anyone got any experience with the G600 ?, whenever some part of my pc system dies I usually chose something different than I had before.
Any advice or experience welcome.
They used to sell teflon sticker mouse "feet" - you may still be able to find them around the internet. That being said, I think you are right about it being on it's last legs. Even if you glued the pads back on or replaced them, I doubt they would last as long as the originals.
I had a mamba I just replaced with a G500 - the rubber grips on the sides were coming apart. Glue lasted... maybe 2 months. I could keep gluing it but it was getting very ragged, and if I tried to use it with the grips off it was pretty uncomfortable.
Not the same mouse, I know, so I won't go into which I like better or my thoughts about the G500.

I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.

The new Naga is more similar to the N600 than not now. They've traded out the little buttons for mechanical buttons that are raised the same way they are on the N600. The Naga also has a tilt wheel now (finally). I take this to mean that Logitech was doing something right with their mouse. :-)
Anyway, the difference is probably going to be down to which one feels more "right" in your hands. If you like Razer's ergonomics then go with the Razer mouse. If you like Logitech's ergonomics go with the N600.
I recently purchased the new Naga after reading about some of the improvements they've made over the old version based on the G600. As someone coming from the G600, which was my upgrade from the original Naga, I have to say I'm enjoying new Naga much more than I do the G600.
I'd have to agree it's really a matter of personal "feel" when using the mice and I found the G600 to be just a bit too clunky for my hands. It's a GREAT mouse for those that don't mind it's overall size but in my case my little finger would get a slight numbing sensation after hours of use which I hadn't experience before with any other mouse. Now that I've reverted back to the Naga, albeit the new one, that issue has gone away.
Thank you for the advice, I will try the G600 do not think I could go back to a mouse without side buttons, it has become a real hand saver for mmo games.
Maybe the Naga is better, but I hate the G600. It's fat, it is clumsy, I can not reach all the buttons.
I bought a G500...couldn't be happier.

Honey sesame carrots
Honey sesame carrots
These honey sesame carrots will dress up even the most boring meal with their sunny colour, vitamins and sweet flavour. A great dish to tempt non-veggie eaters to try carrots.
prep: 0:05 | cook 0:05
- 6 carrots, peeled and cut into batons
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- In a saucepan, cover the carrots with water and bring to the boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 4 minutes.
- Drain and drizzle honey over immediately.
- Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
- If you don't have any honey, you can substitute with maple syrup.
- You may not need all of the honey. Just start with half and see how you go. The steam from the vegetables helps to distribute the honey all over the carrots.
- This recipe was created by Jennifer Cheung for Kidspot, Australia's best recipe finder.

Less than four days after that fatal home invasion where Pastor Carr was killed in Greenville, the number of people in Pitt County applying for a concealed weapon permit has jumped significantly.
On a usual week, Pitt County clerks will process about 25 applications. Since Monday, they've processed about 60, with most of them on Tuesday and Wednesday.
One man we spoke to, Steven Pearce, actually worked with Pastor Carr's wife and says this tragedy has further convinced him why he and his family need a gun in their home. "I can just imagine in a situation where I am broken into and I'm home and my life is threatened and when that happens, I have the rights to protect myself and that's what I want to be able to do."
The Pitt County Sheriff's Office says anyone who applies for a permit will have to wait 90 days for the background check to return. A pistol permit only takes 2-and-a-half days.

Oklahoma City Thunder: Most entertaining team in sports?
Oklahoma City might not have the best team in the NBA. That's becoming more and more clear as this San Antonio series takes seed. But can we all agree that OKC has the most entertaining team in the NBA? Maybe the most entertaining team in sports.
Of course, some define entertaining as strictly winning. OK. I'm not going to argue. I don't agree at all, but if you want to embrace that take-your-ball-and-go-home argument, fine. But I define entertaining as fun and dramatic to watch. Going to the arena never knowing what you'll get.
In the playoffs and the regular season, the Thunder provides both the wow factor and the what? factor. The Thunder matches the excitement and talent level of any team — Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Serge Ibaka, they all solicit oohs and aahs throughout most any game.
Now, not everything about the Thunder is high entertainment. When the ball stops moving and the Thunder offense starts playing in quicksand, well, that's not nearly as entertaining as the Spurs firing the ball around the hardwood. But the Spurs don't always fire the ball around the hardwood — it's possible that Tony Parker takes more dribbles in a game than does Russell Westbrook; in fact, I'm quite sure of it — and the Thunder offense doesn't always bog down.
But here's why the Thunder is the most entertaining team perhaps in all of sports. The games they play. They have a very difficult time finding their way to a blowout, good or bad.
Look at the playoffs. The Thunder played an obviously-overmatched Mavericks team. The Thunder swept four games. It won Game 1 99-98 on Durant's buzzer-beater, Game 2 102-99 when Jason Terry missed two 3-pointers in the final five seconds and Game 4 103-97 with a comeback from a 13-point deficit in the fourth quarter.
The Thunder played the proud but aging Lakers in the second round and won in five games. The Thunder won Game 2 77-75, winning Game 2 thanks to Durant's running one-hander with86 18.6 seconds left in the game. The Thunder lost Game 3 99-96 and Durant missed a 3-pointer in the final seconds. The Thunder won Game 4 103-100 with another 13-point comeback in the fourth quarter.
Even the two games against the Spurs have been high on the entertaining scale. The Thunder led by nine points in the fourth quarter of Game 1, the Spurs rallied to take a 10-point lead with 1:57 left and the Thunder still clawed back within three by game's end. Game 2 was a blowout — the Spurs led by 22 in the third quarter — and still the Thunder climbed back within six points with 51/2 minutes left. And it was only 115-107 Spurs with 1:50 left.
And those games are a microcosm of the Thunder season. The Thunder had great finishes and vaunted comebacks and exasperating close calls against teams it should have been blown away and even some defeats against the likes of Cleveland and Sacramento.
You never known what you're going to get. I think that's a product of amazing talent and youth.

I've never had any kind of beauty treatment apart from going to the hairdresser so I didn't know what to expect. I went for a microdermabrasion and as a new client, I was required to complete a medical questionnaire which I found reassuring - in my mind, it indicated that they weren't just interested in taking my money! The therapist was professional at all times and explained what I could expect from my treatment. She was aware that it was a Wahanda deal but I don't feel that knowing that effected her professionalism. I will happily go back, and the salon is highly recommended.

I don't remember
getting old, .
it should'nt happen yet.
I need to do some other things
that aren't decided yet.
Who said my joints should ache like this?
my eyesight's getting bad,
and when I hit the bedroom,
well, things are looking sad.
I'm fifty three,
how can that be?
I'm really not that old.
my body doesn't understand
it won't do what it's told.
I tell it to run round the track
for seven laps or more.
I get to three, it answers me,
you're only getting four.
When I was
in my prime you know.
I'd drink ten pints or more,
then rise the very next morning
and off to work I'd roar.
But now I have a glass of wine
and things start looking hazy
my body likes it best in bed
I never was that lazy.
At seventeen
the big three O,
was what I used to fear
at twenty four I thought the door
to forty wasn't near.
At forty two the big five O
was looming at the double,
the big six O is next you know,
oh boy! Am I in trouble!
When god invites
me for a chat
to find out where I'm going
I'll tell him, well, I don't want hell
there's no one there I'm knowing,
I'll go to heaven if that's OK.
and wait there with my hymn book,
till the missus gets herself up here
to teach the angels to cook.

Have you ever seen the FAMOUS brand?
Can you graffiti it a style close to this, I would really like to see how it would l@@k!
Can you graffiti it a style close to this, I would really like to see how it would l@@k!
I am not a fan of graffiti and other types of street slang, however, this piece shows som serious genuine artwork and is not some simple spray that looks disgusting on the sides of walls and buildings devaluing them. This image if done properly could actually increase the value of what it was placed on. If artist could draw characters with this text in a style like this graffiti it would make for an excellent Murial.
mmmeeeehhhh I wish I had skills like you!
Thank you !!
Your very welcome, the art is ever so fluent and colorful, the shinning to it is just outstanding, good job to you good sir.
Sweet, vibrant colors and bold
really cool typeface and colors
really cool

I'm not against the new bridge, I am against the light rail. If it gets over here to Clark College, we might as well kiss St. John's IGA goodbye. I heard it reported on the news from Portland that the Rockwood Safeway in the Gresham area has closed. There was so much shoplifting and stealing that they couldn't make any money. The store was fine until MAX came into the area. It was the last grocery store in the area and left the people high and dry for shopping.
As far as the vote on light rail is concerned, it should not just be Vancouver, but the entire Clark County. After all, the three park-and-ride garages are being built for the people who come in from all over the county to ride light rail, so they should also have the right to vote on it. It shouldn't be left on the backs of the people of Vancouver only. I would like to know if it is voted down but light rail comes over here anyway, who is going to pay for the maintenance and how will it be paid?

I'm in LA for a meeting with the comp sci department heads in the University of California system. With the recent rains, it's amazingly bright and clear such that you can even see the mountains.
I'm still searching for a system to study in India, China, and Australia. Thanks to the folks who've offered me some suggestions already. I've not yet made my decisions yet, and so am quite open to ideas.
This may be a bit controversial, but I'd decided to include the architecture of a computer virus in the Handbook. Despite their annoyance and damage, there's no doubt that some of them are architecturally quite intriguing.

|Value of wildlife
Wildlife-based eco-tourism brings in some $400 million as foreign exchange to Kenya - 30% of the country's total. But these wild assets are threatened - from land subdivision, farming, and poaching. Despite these threats, the economic value of this "natural capital" has not been quantified clearly enough in areas where it can do the most good - in communities that are making decisions about land use. Our programs are aimed at improving local understanding of the value of wildlife - now, and for future generations. Photo: Destination Africa Safaris

First National Bank Building asked folks to "enjoy seat" where Chris Lollie sat before arrest
Lollie says he was sitting in the chair second closest to the camera in the picture at right when he was arrested in the First National Bank Building's skyway.
:::: UPDATE :::: Pioneer Press photog told to stop shooting in "private" St. Paul skyway
One of the controversies surrounding Chris Lollie's rough, racially charged arrest in the First National Bank Building's skyway is whether the seat he was sitting in when a security guard asked him to leave is in a public space.
A post on the First National Bank Building's Facebook page suggests it is.

St. Paul police defend Chris Lollie arrest; lawyers question aggressive use of force
Here's the post, which was published in September 2009 but is newsy after video of Lollie's arrest hit the internet:
We texted Lollie a screengrab of the post and asked him if he can confirm it shows the very chair he sat in before his arrest.
"I sure can, it's the one in the first set facing toward the camera," he replies.
We also asked Lollie how long he was sitting in the chair before a security guard approached and started giving him a hard time.
"Two minutes after," he replies. The guard "walked up to me, we talked for about two or three minutes."
"I sat down at 9:40 [a.m.] and by roughly 9:45 our conversation was done and he was calling the police," Lollie continues.
Lollie's mugshot
But in a statement defending the conduct of officers who handled Lollie's arrest, St. Paul police say they were summoned to the scene on a report of "a man who was trespassing in a private area."
(For more, click to page two.)
"The guards reported that the man had on repeated occasions refused to leave a private 'employees only' area in the First National Bank Building," the St. Paul PD statement continues, though Lollie tells us there was no signage around indicating that the chair was anything but public.
We called First National Bank Building's main phone number and asked to speak with someone who could answer questions about the public/private status of the area in question, but were told that because of the Labor Day holiday, we'd have to wait until today at the earliest to speak with anyone who could respond to our inquiry.
Meanwhile, on Friday, St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman released a statement calling for a "full review" of Lollie's arrest by the city's Police-Civilian Internal Affairs Review Commission, which is made up of five citizens and two members of the police union.
Following the release of Coleman's statement, the president of the police union, Dave Titus, released a statement of his own blaming Lollie for the rough treatment he received, including a tasing.
"The outcome of this arrest was determined by Mr. Lollie himself," Titus says. "He refused numerous lawful orders for an extended period of time. The only person who brought race into this situation was Mr. Lollie."
Titus also criticized Mayor Coleman for passages in his statement saying things like, "The video [of Lollie's arrest] raises a great deal of concern, especially given this summer's shooting death of Mike Brown in Ferguson."
"Some of the Mayor's statements regarding this arrest were inflammatory and could potentially and unnecessarily create an unsafe climate for residents and officers alike," Titus says.

This can be used with idevicerestore (I haven't tried it though).
Based on:
Some shell newbies don't know this very handy file management related command so I decided to include it here.
You need to have the "file" package installed.
Saves opening another console terminal (eg. CTRL+ALT+F[n]) or opening another remote terminal.
Ctrl+Z pauses the current task and pushed it to the background, leaving you with a command prompt for those "Oh crap I forgot to change xyz before I ran that and it'll take forever if I Ctrl+C and start again..." situations. Typing 'fg' (shorthand for foreground, that's how I remember it) will resume the paused task.
Bash scrip to test if a server is up, you can use this before wget'ing a file to make sure a blank one isn't downloaded.
I wanted to play a song from the shell and get the shell back, I also dont want to store the file if it is not needed.
edit, not sure if I need to mention it... killall vlc to stop it
compare to alternative :
- directly tests the -STOP of the process to continue or stop loop,
- background operator should be set (or not) at the call of the function
For extension i suggest a slowPID() based on kill like above and a slowCMD based on killall.
On my music directory, I create variable that contains all mp3s files, then I play them with mpg123. -C options enable terminal control key, s for stop, p for pause, f for forward to next song.
Remove all empty directories below the current directory. If directories become empty as the results of this, remove those too.
Get just the IP address for a given hostname. For best results, make this a function in your shell rc file so that it can be used for things like traceroute:
Titus:~$ traceroute `getip foo.com`
traceroute to 22.214.171.124 (220.127.116.11), 64 hops max, 52 byte packets
Have wc work on each file then add up the total with awk; get a 43% speed increase on RHEL over using "-exec cat|wc -l" and a 67% increase on my Ubuntu laptop (this is with 10MB of data in 767 files).
By default, slot 1 is used for OTP purposes and validates against the Yubikey servers. Running the command above will replace that. If you have a Yubikey 2 or above, you can change -1 to -2 and program the second slot with a strong static key.
take a list of IP:PORT and output IP:PORT:COUNTRY
Traffic details on the Ethernet interface.
When you press "cmd+n" in TextMate, you can have "HTML" language as default document format... You can also define other languages too. You need to know the UUID of your language bundle.
1.) my profile ends with $USER not with .default
2.) only grep for the first occurrence because some extensions have the translated name also inside the install.rdf
This is an easy way to quickly get a status for a device in multipath on SLES systems, as long as the server is configured based on Novell's standards, where multipathed disks are referred to by /dev/disk/by-... tree. Make sure to replace name_of_vg with your Volume Group name.
Instead of dumping the entire query to the screen, it will use 'less -S' to handle pagination. This means you can move back and forward through the result set, and instead of wrapping rows at screen boundaries, the table will extend off the screen, and can be scrolled left and right with arrow keys.
1. Get name of task by task=$(basename "$(pwd)")
2. Check whether "$task.c" exists as a file
3. open "$task.c", "$task.in", "task.out" in vim with such layout.
| | $task.in |
| | |
|$task.c |-----------------|
| | $task.out |

Queen Mother may get blue plaque tributeBreaking News
tags: Telegraph (UK), Queen Mother, British royal family, monarchy
Her name has been put forward for inclusion in the organisation's scheme by a member of the public and her case is being considered by a panel including Sir David Cannadine, the historian, and Sir Andrew Motion, the former Poet Laureate.
The plaques, which are attached to birthplaces and former homes of prominent figures, are not traditionally associated with royalty, as the scheme does not cover royal buildings or palaces.
However, in the case of the late Queen Mother, other addresses could be considered, including her parents' house near Victoria Station in London, where she lived as a child, and a property in Sloane Street. She also lived at a house in Bruton Street, near Berkeley Square, where the Queen was born....

text: Easter in Poland begins on Ash Wednesday. Pussy-willows are cut and placed in the water, then they are blessed on Palm Sunday in church, as palms are not available in Poland. I remember pussy-willows in a vase when I was growing up. Holy Week begins on Palm Sunday. During fasting it is traditional to participate in various religious observances such as Stations of the Cross, Bitter Lamentations, and an annual three-day retreat which closes with the reception of the sacraments of Penance and the Eucharist. The Easter season ends on Easter Monday when the traditional "Smigus-Dyngus" custom is observed.

ANCHORAGE — A proposal to install a fence along a 5-mile stretch of road known for moose-car strikes is getting criticism from neighbors.
Between 2010 and 2011, the corridor from International Airport Road to the Old Seward Highway saw 106 encounters with the animals, making it one of the most dangerous spots for motorists in Anchorage, The Anchorage Daily News reported
State traffic planners say fencing off the highway would slice that figure in half, and there's federal money to pay for it. But the state's plan is colliding with area residents who argue that tree-cutting associated with the project would expose their homes to highway noise and cut property values.
At a bowling alley in Jewel Lake, more than three dozen people turned out Thursday night to pepper a state Department of Transportation (DOT) representative with questions and convey their displeasure.

"I think DOT should give residents that live along this belt some consideration," said Gerald Valinske, 62, a retired railroad worker. "Not just the people that are driving."
The department is planning to respond to the concerns and make adjustments.
But officials also believe the project meets noise standards, and that because the federal funding is earmarked for improving safety, it can't be used to pay for a noise buffer.
"Our mission is to safely move people in our transportation corridor. We have policies that we have to abide by," project manager Kevin Jackson said. But, he added: "We're certainly receptive to the comments we're receiving."
Of the complaints aired at the bowling alley, foremost among them was that the state hadn't notified people about the project. Several said they'd been informed by neighbors who were going door to door to spread the word.
Jackson said the state had sent out a mailer to 1,149 addresses in April. But only a single resident of the 40 at the meeting reported receiving one.
The state has posted all the plans and other project information, including public comments with responses from the department, on a website, minnesotadrivemoose.com.
After the meeting, Jackson said in a follow-up email that DOT will shift the plans for the fence to minimize its impact on residents "while maintaining the needs and goals of the project."

My car starts fine but cuts off when it reaches normal running temp. Then it wont start again until I let the car cool down for about 45 minutes. Could this be a fuel problem? The car did sit for about 5 months because the fuel pump needed to be replace and I did not have the money to get it fixed. I have had it back from the shop for about a month when this problem started happening.

Paris, romance and train travel... Some cinematic traditions never get tired, and those three elements come into play in Jérôme Bonnell's "Just A Sigh," a tale of love found while riding the rails.
Starring Gabriel Byrne and Emmanuelle Devos, the film tells the story of Alix, an actress who is headed to an audition on the train, when she runs into a mysterious Irishman. There's an instant spark and she falls for him, and what begins is the possibility of a new life. But first, she'll have to sort out her current life, and as you'll see in this exclusive, that includes dealing with a nosy family, while pondering if happiness can truly be experienced in the moment.
"Just A Sigh" opens in New York on March 21st and in LA on March 28th. Watch below.

Storm respects Austin
When James Storm made his debut in NXT, he did not bring beer out to the ring with him. That was something that he was well known for doing in TNA. The reason why he did not is because Storm respects Steve Austin. The two of them are friends in real life, so he did not want to do anything remotely close to being gimmick infringement. Austin is known for always having beer with him.

Court sentencings
The Columbian's policy is to publish all Clark County Superior Court felony sentencings, as provided by the Clark County Clerk's Office. DC signifies that the defendant has entered drug court. Addresses are provided by the courts and may have changed by the time of sentencing. Misdemeanor sentencings, provided by District Court, are published for the following crimes: DUI (driving under the influence), DWS/revoked (driving while license is suspended or revoked), theft-3 (third-degree theft), and assault-4 (fourth-degree assault). If the defendant is sentenced for other misdemeanors at the same time, those offenses are also listed. Money figures represent fines.

Learning to classify with missing and corrupted features

- , Lin XiaoAffiliated withMicrosoft Research
A common assumption in supervised machine learning is that the training examples provided to the learning algorithm are statistically identical to the instances encountered later on, during the classification phase. This assumption is unrealistic in many real-world situations where machine learning techniques are used. We focus on the case where features of a binary classification problem, which were available during the training phase, are either deleted or become corrupted during the classification phase. We prepare for the worst by assuming that the subset of deleted and corrupted features is controlled by an adversary, and may vary from instance to instance. We design and analyze two novel learning algorithms that anticipate the actions of the adversary and account for them when training a classifier. Our first technique formulates the learning problem as a linear program. We discuss how the particular structure of this program can be exploited for computational efficiency and we prove statistical bounds on the risk of the resulting classifier. Our second technique addresses the robust learning problem by combining a modified version of the Perceptron algorithm with an online-to-batch conversion technique, and also comes with statistical generalization guarantees. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach with a set of experiments.

USER REPORT: The Leica Monochom – Scarily Good. By Jason Howe
USER REPORT: The Leica Monochom – Scarily Good. By Jason Howe
Another submission, this time my first images from the M Monochrom and some thoughts on my first 3 weeks with the camera.
Big thanks for all the quality information you put up on the camera, it all helped make my decision to purchase it a lot easier.
As a rule I like my posts to be considered and well thought out so it many respects this is rather an impromtu update on my first three weeks with the Leica M Monochrom.
I say three weeks but really in terms of actual usage it's been more like a 7-8 hours. Having experienced the initial sense of euphoria that always accompanies the arrival of any new camera I found myself quite unexpectedly feeling a little deflated after firing off the first few frames. Was this a case of "buyers remorse"? No, it wasn't that I regretted the purchase, not at all. This was about seeing that many of my initial shots contained blown highlights, it has to be said this really dampened my enthusiasm quite rapidly . Yes, despite what I'd read elsewhere I still anticipated picking up this camera and being fully conversant with it in minutes……naive and perhaps a little arrogant on my part.
I quite literally put the camera back in the box and left it for 10 days or so while I got on with some other more pressing matters……if I'm going to be processing images in LR4 and subsequently having two library's (MM files not yet supported by Aperture 3) I should really tidy out my Aperture 3 library before it all turns in to one big horrible mess!! I had been guilty of some very lazy practices, ones I won't repeat in a hurry! Looking back, at least subconsciously I must have been thinking that I would have some decent images out of the Monochrom to process at some point!
Back to the Monochrom, it's now clear that my two biggest challenges with this camera will be –
Exposure – despite the histogram showing a correct exposure there is still clipping, maddening to say the least.
Processing in LR4 – I used LR 3 a little but the look of my B&W's plus all my file structure was born out of Aperture 3
Add to this the harshly lit skies of a Kiwi summer and opportunities to use this camera were eluding me. Thankfully I have what is becoming an ongoing association with Tauranga Musical Theatre and was able to get a couple of rehearsals in this week and at the same time hone my skills with the Monochrom. Their current production – A Very Scary Xmas 2 is dark, these are conditions outside the realm of the M9 at ISO 640 even with the Summilux's. Yes, I personally choose not the use the M9 above ISO 640, maybe 800 on rare occasions.
So, belatedly I have decided to put up my first images from the Monochrom.
These images were taken during the rehearsal, the action is live and fast-moving, the light is without a doubt the most challenging I have worked in, often dark yet interspersed with bursts of light my shutter speeds could vary between 1/30 and 1/2000 in an instant. Throw the idiosyncrasies of the Monochrom meter in to the mix and you get my drift. Whilst I would be the first to admit there is always room for improvement I am really quite pleased with these.
I can't underline how incredible the image quality is from this camera, all the shots here are taken at ISO 1250 – 2000, there is no noise reduction required. I'm yet to see how the camera performs at even higher ISO because quite simply I haven't had to go there, it's difficult to imagine circumstances where I would need to…..
All these images were shot with the 35mm Summilux f/1.4 Asph FLE and the 50mm Summilux f/1.4 Asph FLE. I have done some experimentation with vintage Leica glass and coloured filters, I continue to work on this and will hopefully collect some images that will allow me to put together a future post on the subject.
As I mentioned, processing images from the Monochrom was one of my concerns, B&W is my comfort zone, but my initial impressions of the Monochrom files was that it may be more difficult to get my B&W look than it was using the M9, how ironic would that be……however, my LR4 fears have proved unfounded, I believe I'm on top of the processing and now I have what I would describe as my look. I'm never critical of the images of others, we each see things differently and I firmly believe that, I am pleased that I have managed to avoid the silver/grey looking MM files that I have seen online though.
So, what about exposure then? Well it's a work in progress but I've found that underexposing by 1/3 to as much as 1 stop in some cases will do the job. These files contain so much detail in the shadows that there is almost limitless opportunity to recover them. So, in essence one should shoot cautiously.
I'll continue to post my thoughts and images on the Leica M Monochrom, but after a shaky start I have to say it really is "scarily good"

Jason,first let me say that your shots are VERY beautiful. You have a keen eye and you surely know how touse the Monochrome.
But, regarding the title of your post, we are talking about a 8000$ camera.
It has to be AT LEAST scarily good…
Thanks Andrea
I appreciate you very kind sentiments.
Regarding the title of the post and the value of the camera I totally agree. I'm certain there is going to be a lot more to come though, and if its scarily good after a few weeks then it will only get better :-)
Thanks, Jason
Brilliant photos. Great work.
Fabulous images Jason, some of the best I've seen so far from the Monochrom! I had the chance to use one for a couple of hours thanks to the Leica Akademie in Mayfair, London. Loved it and if I could afford one would buy one with no hesitation. As it is I've just bought a M8 and happy just to finally get on the Leica ladder. My only question ire your photos, do you have one leg longer than the other? :-) Personally I don't like images shot or cropped at an angle. But as I say that's just my taste.
Hey Gaz
Thanks, I appreciate that.
Congrats on your M8 its in very good hands. I guess I just don't feel the need to conform to those traditional compositions, certainly not in this environment and funnily enough I was similar shooting street. I realize its not for everyone though. :-) I have just found that shooting instinctively works better in theatre conditions, there is often a great deal to think about in a short amount of time so I just do what comes naturally rather than over think it.
Take it easy, Jason.
By the way Jason, love your website! Looks, good, well written articles and lots of useful info, Steve better watch out he's got competition!
Fantastic photos Jason!
For those interested in learning how to process B&W photos in LR4, i've posted some tips on my blog… The steps should work for pretty much any file type be it JPG or RAW…
Very nice photos! Love the tones and contrast!
i have tried not to like the MM, because of it's "lacks" and price and all… but I can't do it anymore! This camera DOES have an unique potential to my eyes, in right hands at least.
Beautiful images, thank you for sharing! You seem to be "the right hands".
Thanks very much, I tried not to like the MM to a degree, then I tried to ignore it, it's ultimately about what you shoot, in my case it suits my style and so I gave in…..
That said I'm fortunate enough to still have my M9 for the times when colour is needed.
Cheers, Jason.
Hi Danny
Would love to know your B & W process in LR please
Hi Mark
I'm not sure if you left this comment for me or if it should have been on the previous MM post by Danny Bar.
I have indicated above that due to the amount of emails I have had about processing that I will be doing a post at some point on my website – http://www.aperturepriority.co.nz
I have only been using LR4 for a short time, whilst I'm happy with my progress I believe I still have a lot to learn.
Jason, they look like digital b&w should. Disclose your secrets, so humble D700 users like me can benefit! Don't hide and refer us to some obscure NZ website!
I would be particularly interested in the contrast treatment you applied, and the possible noise reduction vs sharpness, all vs the LR4 Monochrom preset.
Thanks! :-) :-)
Ha, I figure if more people go there it will be less obscure….:)
I hate to pee in your Cheerios, but none of those shots are in focus.
I thought the same until I clicked on an image I thought soft. The enlarged images are remarkably sharper. Must be something about the way Steve's blog down samples the JPEGs.
Hi Jason,
As much as I like your pics (congrats for your work), I am yet to be impressed (technically) by a picture taken with the monochrome M. I feel that any picture taken with my M6 + b&w film and digitalized looks better, with blacks that look black and not dark grey and a subtle balance of light and shadows.
I'm a big Leica fan but really, I don't see the point in the monochrome…
Hi Alain
Thanks for the kind words, whilst I love both my M6 and the look of film I couldn't agree with this but respect your opinion all the same.
The beauty of photography is how we all see things differently, many of us see rich blacks in these files where others like yourself see dark grey. I see a subtle balance of light and shadow, whereas you don't.
Neither of us is right or wrong, we just see what we see.
What can't be disputed is that these files shot on the M6 with ISO 1600 film would contain a considerable amount of grain, not a look I wanted for these images. That is the true strength and point of the Monochrom for me.
Thanks again, Jason.
It would be scarily better if it had color too.
Beautiful. I love the higher contrast and saturated black look instead of the gray look for black and white. Actually, I also like it for color. Too much shadow detail can detract from a punchy look.
I remember longing for the day when photographs would become smooth and grainless. Now that we have arrived, everyone is turning their heads backwards and wanting grain again. Not me, I will continue facing forward. Nice photos.
Thanks David.
I love grain (noise) but I really longed for it to be a creative choice in the most extreme lighting conditions, now with the MM I have that.
Cheers, Jason.
The tonality of these shots is impressive. Were all of these taken without a filter on the lens?
Hi Doug
Current 35 & 50 Lux which is arguably some of the trickiest glass to use on the MM. No filters on these shots.
I have ordered various filters for these lenses though so i will be having a play around.
Cheers, Jason.
Hi Jason,
absolutely outstanding pictures !
Best *natural* files from the MM I've seen posted on the www by a long way Jason!
Hey cidereye
I've really been humbled by the amount of comments of this nature, I guess I must be doing something right! :)
Cheers, Jason.
The absolutely best pictures I have seen on this side taken with a Leica MM.
Congratulations !!!
Thanks Johann, I really appreciate that.
The absolutely best pictures I have seen on this side taken with a Leica MM.
Great work Jason, you know I like these. Expose to the left instead of to the right eh? You're really mastering this machine!
Cheers Michiel :)
A great read Jason combined with some beautiful subtle images…..Now a probably stupid question,..if there is so much detail in the shadows is it possible ,in normal lighting,to expose for the highlights and ,to put it crudely,dig out the shadows later?I realise that this isnt the way to extract the maximum quality from this camera but possibly by "roughing up"the sensor a little an inherrent "quality"may be discovered from this digital sensor without the need for silver "efex"…….sorry for all the inverted commas.
Hi Neil
I recall seeing a post on the Leica Forum regarding the recovery of poor exposure on the MM.
Now whilst I can't understand the writers instance on not using the histogram it does highlight how much shadow detail can be extracted out of these MM files and it will allow you to draw your own conclusions.
Thanks, Jason.
Thanks Jason,…..Neil.
Brilliant and inspiring work Jason, and yes the best Leica MM photos I have seen, if I was Mr Leica I'd snap up the copyright to those images and stick them in my advertising.
Ha, thanks mate. I wish I were that lucky….:-)
Great to see this finally made it to Steve's site. Excellent work
Best processing yet with this MM great work can you give us some insight on how you process ?
Hey Summo Lux
High praise, I'm not so sure though. I know that last week I looked at Ashwin's images on here and felt exactly the same, that they were the best processing of MM files I had seen.
I guess we often prefer what others are doing, either way there is always room for improvement, the importance with the MM files is really to get the blacks in place, in that respect I am very happy.
As for processing tips….the real secret to the MM files is that you actually need do very little to them, certainly each of these files took 2-3 mins to process once I had gotten my head around LR4. The same applies to B&W conversions from the M9 in Aperture 3.
To my surprise I have had a lot of emails about processing so I will probably share some techniques on my site once I feel I am qualified enough to offer advice….:-)
Really appreciate your generous comment though.
All the best, Jason.
Thanks for the reply cheers
awesome report!
Thanks Rob.
Once again Jason, great work. The images are polished and beautifully captured. Bravo!
Thanks Peter, much appreciated.
Cheers, Jason.
Just commenting on the camera IQ. Very sharp and digital looking photographs coming from the MM, as in 99% of cases. I think I prefer a worse IQ for B&W and for non film images in general.
Hi there,
For sure this camera and the files it produces are not to everyones taste. I would add that I can degrade these images in processing though, whereas I can't make them better. This suits me but I totally accept your view. ;-)
Cheers, Jason.
Thanks Jason for pics and comments, I see your point. Keep up your work!
To clarify, officially Kiwi summer starts today, December first. (Legislative summer, not astronomical summer.)
Mmmm, thanks for pointing that out…..
I'm sure you'd concede that as the last few weeks have been wonderful it feels like summer has begun…..great news for you as I'd suggest you get out more…..:-)
Wish I could get out more. At least I could have a nice walk on the beach today. And, yes it's actually been nice, for a much needed change.
BTW, I was clarifying Kiwi "summer" for folks, particularly in the US. Kiwis seem to assume everyone starts seasons at they beginning of a month. Not so. In the US seasons start according to astronomical positions – summer starts at the summer solstice, for example. They assume summer here would start at the southern hemisphere summer solstice on 21 December and generally do not know Kiwi's define summer differently.
Actually we seem to speak about only 2 seasons – Summer or Winter as the change between the 2 can seem a bit abrupt. Anyway being a small island in the middle of the roaring forties we can get any kind of weather at any kind of year – well more likely to get cold wether in Summer than vice versa.
Back on topic I agree with Howard that these do indeed look like images from a $9000 camera.
I wonder why nobody makes a camera that has a setting to simply not allow blown highlights. It must be a pretty simple thing to do.
Lovely pics too. I do a fair bit of theatre shooting and it's damned tricky at the best of times especially with changing light, spotlights etc. I'm very jealous of your kit too.
Now these look like photos taken with a $9,000 + camera and great lenses. Thanks for sharing.
Thank goodness for that….:-)
Wow love the first shot looks ace.
Congrats Jason!
Very nice results indeed and a few really etheric ones inbetween… somehow i dont seem to have as many problems with exposure as expected – I do have a constant exposure compensation of EV-2/3 though and clipping warning set in the highlights to 95% just as a preliminary 'precaution'…. but when i do actually check (out of insecurity or curiosity perhaps;o)?) mostly everything is just fine… perhaps all the warnings given on beforehand with this camera has 'paid off'? – Well, in reality i might just have a slight tendency to underexpose overall. Finally, keeping at least a yellow filter on also keeps an extra tiny 'lid on things', I guess. Happy Monochrom days!
This is simply beautiful and the photos look so realistic. I have viewed them several and am in awe of the wonderful settings and the light which so fascinated me!
Thank you for sharing with us!
Very nice set.
Stunning work, Jason. You have mastered the "modern" look with your lenses and the MM…great work, really capably showing the range that the MM can produce in terms of IQ!
Thanks Ashwin I really appreciate that.
I followed your previous post on vintage glass and as I'm fortunate to have quite a bit of that it's definitely on my agenda.
I don't have a preference for either the "modern" or "vintage" glass on the MM, I just really love the diversity of looks that can be achieved and the excitement of experimenting! :-)
Cheers, Jason.
That's not good. This kind of article makes wonder an MM. Amazing results! Congratulations!
Luiz….don't fight it :-)
I used to limit my M9 to around 1250 but more like you 800 even at times. Then, I realized the more I took pics with it at high ISO that even at 2500 the noise is still acceptable to get the shot and like the noise at higher ISO on the MM it gives it sort of a film grain look at times. Now, I just let it go auto-ISO in dark situations and it works great.
Hey Jonny,
I'd like to elaborate a little further on this as it really relates to the output media and size. I concede that M9 images shot at ISO 800 and higher would be more than suitable for JPGs at the size displayed here. I would still maintain that I prefer digital noise to be something I choose as opposed to tolerate.
Cheers, Jason.
very interesting article. And these shots are very classic, like shots back from the time when black and white was how the world was seen through photos.
thank you :)
Hey Jason. Good to see a fellow Kiwi (New Zealander for those that don't know) post.
I have to say your images here are uniformly excellent. I love the tilt on them too – really works.
I find almost all digital cameras need at least -1/3 exposure comp to stop highlight blowout. Especially CMOS sensors as they are more sensitive to light. The exception would be Foveon (Sigma) as due to the triple layers they hardly get enough light. My old Fuji S2 Pro with it's CCD senor was pretty spot on and with lovely tones. I have my X100, 50D and 5D always at -1/3. More (or less? eg -2/3) if it is a bright but cloudy day. And then even more if the scene is dark as the camera is always trying to meter to achieve a balance of 15% grey. The only time to over expose is when there is a lot of white eg snow or a wedding dress and the camera is trying to make it grey. One day the metering on cameras may see the scene as it really is.
Until then…Thanks for the post.
Oops That should be 18% grey.
Thanks Doug.
I can't claim to be a full Kiwi……let's just say in the early hours of tomorrow morning I might be humming along to "Swing low sweet chariot…" :-) Thanks again.
Do yourself a favor…..perform the Haka! At least you'll be on the right side of the ledger! And that's from an Aussie!
After that result….I'm not so sure! :-)
Wow…just read the result! They were due for a loss soon enough!
Fantastic photos by the way.
Will be really interesting to see how the mono's from the new M compare to this camera, given it's a new censor.
beautiful pictures!!! and sharp as can be!! wow!
Great pictures! Please continue and share :)
WOW , The pics are Extremely BEAUTIFUL , its like they are in colors ;) , Simply amazing , Thumbs UP Mr.Howe , NICE :) :D
Thanks Danny, "its like they are in colors" I'm not sure I could get a better tribute than that. Cheers, Jason
That's exactly what I thought!
Great photos.
The monochrom is able to handle huge contrasts — when I tried this last using a Voivghlander Bessa, vintage glass and 400 iso film, it simply did not work well (only keepers are at http://pukeko.net.nz/photo/2012/04/sweeney-todd-school-play-obhs-obgs-april-2012/ ) — I had to underexpose everything. (Next time will use a fast lens on an M6) Were you wide open or stepped down with the 'Lux?
Thanks Chris
Your quite right, I see what you mean.
Most of the images were taken at f/1.4, and a few are f/2 and f/2.8
Cheers, Jason.
