LEICA’S NEW HQ RETURNS
TO HISTORIC WETZLAR HOME Leica chairman
Dr Andreas Kaufmann

journalists, photographers
and dealers at the new
Wetzlar plant

Space: 27,000m2
Employees: Over 700

Cost: €60 million

LEICA’S legendary cameras
have captured some of the most
iconic images in history, including
the M2 used by Alberto Korda to
photograph Cuban revolutionary
Che Guevara in 1960.
Long before that, though, it was
Leica, rather than its photographers
and their subjects, that played a
starring role.
Ernst Leitz II, head of the company
that went on to become Leica, helped
scores of Jewish employees escape
banks of the River Lahn.
With roots that stretch back to the
8th century, Wetzlar has held close
links with the optics industry for more
than 160 years. In 1849, Karl Kellner
founded the Optics Institute, which
was later taken over by Ernst Leitz.
NEW BEGINNING
Fast-forward to May 2014 and Leica
bosses were in their element, so to
speak, at a press conference to mark
the official opening of Leitz Park.
They hailed the homecoming as
a ‘new beginning’, transforming the
brand into a ‘tangible experience’
that kicked off with an open day
for the public.
Dr Andreas Kaufmann, chairman
of Leica Camera AG, said: ‘No
other brand has so crucially shaped
and influenced the past 100 years
of photography like Leica, by
continuing to provide photographers
with the best tool and superb lenses
to match…’
Dr Kaufmann, who owns most
of Leica Camera AG through his
investment firm ACM, added: ‘The
Leitz Camera set out from Wetzlar
to conquer the world. Now that
Leica Camera AG is returning to
its birthplace, we are underlining

More than 2,000 Leica

journalists gathered to witness the

100 years of Leica photography.

city possesses for the entire optical
segment in Germany.
‘Leica Camera AG is returning to…
a new home that is open to visitors
and photography enthusiasts, and
offers them a unique experience
with valuable insights into the past,
present and future of photography.’
Oskar Barnack
Leica wasted no time in informing
guests that Wetzlar is where, around
a century ago, Oskar Barnack
invented and constructed the frst
still-picture camera for 35mm cine
flm (using a 24x36mm negative
format), laying the ‘foundation stone
for the commercial success of the
Leica 35mm camera’.
It was an innovation that ‘irrevocably
changed the world of photography
and paved the way for countless
classic, spectacular, historic and
earth-shattering photographs,’
the frm added.
Leica promises a range of
attractions for photography
enthusiasts – not just dedicated
Leica fans – in the 27,000m2
space that also houses the frm’s
customer care divisions and Leica
[educational] Akademie.
Open day visitors could expect
to see a series of exhibitions of
‘photography through the ages’, that
included masterpieces from a century
of Leica photography alongside
contemporary work.
Leitz Park also offers ‘openly visible’
production areas, a ‘Leica experience’
zone, a gallery, photo studio,
restaurant and coffee house.
The Leica experience area will
give visitors the chance to view the
factory’s ‘clean rooms’, where lens

panes double as touchscreens
to enable visitors to access flms,
photos and more interactively. Not
surprisingly, perhaps, there will also be
the chance to buy Leica products.
Leica CEO Alfred Schopf added: ‘It
was our intention to create not only
a place where our cameras, lenses
and sports optics are made, but also
a place that visibly expresses the
values of our brand.
‘Leitz Park celebrates the Leica
legend in many ways, be it in
exhibitions of photography, the Leica
experience or a look-behind-the-
scenes of the production process.
‘We expect to see tens [of]
thousands of visitors every year,
many of them from abroad – after
all, Frankfurt airport is only 60km
from here.’
The plant aims to be energy-
effcient too, boasting ‘geothermal
energy collectors’ under the car park,
for example, to help power much of
its energy needs.
Why make leica T
lenses in Japan?
However, not all Leica’s products will
be made in Wetzlar. While the new
Leica T compact system camera
is engineered in Germany, as we
reported a month ago, the camera is
hand-polished at a factory in Portugal
and the lenses are made in Japan.
In an interview with AP, Leica CEO
Alfred Schopf (see panel, right) said:
‘We already run the M line and S
line of lenses. We wanted to avoid T
lenses all of a sudden infuencing the
capability of manufacturing these.’

the travel expenses of refugees

Germany under the guise of
Leitz employees, until they
could fnd work overseas. Such
was the Nazi reliance on Leica
optics for military purposes
that offcials largely turned a
blind eye to Leitz’s activities. In
2011, AP revealed that more
refugees had come forward
after research led by Rabbi
Frank Dabba Smith, who frst
published a book about the so-
called ‘Leica Freedom Train’.
IntervIew wIth
aLfred SchoPf
Leica’s CEO tells
AP that expansion
plans were delayed
when the global
financial crisis took
hold in 2008
ap How much will
production increase
at the new Wetzlar plant?
as Everything I say would
be speculation, but
we can expect at least a 50%
higher production capacity…
maybe even 70% or 80%
because you can restructure the
manufacturing differently… but
we don’t have a specifc target,
we just do it step by step.
Solms had its limitations
in terms of climatisation [sic].
For optics, you always need a
certain humidity. When it got
hot in the summer, you couldn’t
manufacture any more, so all
this kind of stuff was rather
diffcult to handle in Solms.
ap Are you better able
to monitor quality
at the new Wetzlar plant?
as Not only that – we
can even improve
the steps of the [manufacturing]
process. For a lot of things you
need a ‘clean room’… cleaner
air, for example, and in the old
building that was rather messy.
You changed the flters four
times a year, but the whole
environment was so old that in
the end you always had to go
for a compromise.
ap So, are delays in the
availability of new
products less likely now?
as We hope so, but we
cannot guarantee
it. Doing a prototype is always
easy, doing ten prototypes is also
easy, but when doing a line of

products, with a set quantity, you
get hiccups. We now have a level
of sophistication, especially on
the optics side.
ap Leica seems a robust
business now,
compared to, say, fve or six
years ago. How confdent are
you that Leica is strong now
fnancially?
as Let me put it this way.
Last year, the market
went down 40% in [sales] terms.
Leica grew over 5% and, if
you account for the Japanese
yen exchange rate differences,
it would be another 4% in
turnover. [Schopf said revenue
‘doubled’ in the three years after
2009]. Will we grow again at this
rate in the next couple of years?
Well, I think that the market is
against us for the time being,
but we are quite confdent that
with the portfolio we are offering,
and how we have positioned it,
that it has the ability to grow.
If the market this year goes
down another 20-30%, will it
infuence Leica? In some way,
yes. [Schopf suggested that,
as Leica’s share of the overall
photo market is relatively low, he
expects the company would, in
any case, be the ‘last to suffer’.]
ap What is the design
of the Leitz Park
building based on?
as The design is actually
based on two lenses,
and binoculars at the front where
the [staff] canteen is... it’s a bit of
a homage to the products we
are manufacturing.

IRISH PHOTOGRAPHER
CLAIMS £30K TITLE
THIS year’s £30,000
Deutsche Börse Photography
Prize has been won by
photographer Richard
Mosse, with images captured
on discontinued military
surveillance film.
Mosse, from Ireland,
triumphed for his exhibition
‘The Enclave’, which documents
a haunting landscape touched
by human tragedy in eastern
Democratic Republic of Congo.
The display, which included
a movie shot on outdated
16mm infrared film, went on
show at the Irish Pavilion in
Venice, Italy, last year.
Mosse used Kodak
Aerochrome while embedded
deep in eastern Congo with
rebel and paramilitary forces –
travelling with a large-format
camera on multiple trips for his
project in 2010-11.
Capturing the images on
military surveillance film – using
a Mamiya 7 (6x7cm roll film)
camera – rendered the jungle
warzone in ‘disorientating
psychedelic hues’, according
to The Photographers’ Gallery
which organises the contest.
The effect of the infrared
film was ‘at once, jarring and

dreamlike’, the gallery added.
The infrared light was
reflected in the chlorophyll
in green plants, for example,
revealing camouflaged soldiers
hiding in the landscapes.
Mosse said: ‘I was pursuing
something so trenchantly real
that it verged on the abstract, at
the very limits of description.
‘I needed to find an
appropriate form to better
describe this sinister resonance.’
Mosse was forced to wrestle
with ethical issues, as well
as logistical ones, during his
mission to document a conflict
that is ‘largely unshown’.
His portfolio included an
aerial view captured from a UN
helicopter, ‘as if searching for
clues to the conflict’.
The Deutsche Börse
Photography Prize is awarded
to a photographer for their
‘significant contribution to
the medium of photography,
either through an exhibition or
publication, in Europe between
1 October 2012 and 30
September 2013’.
The best images from this
year’s competition are on show
at The Photographers’ Gallery
in London until 22 June.

Richard Sibley talks to Pete
Sharpe, manager of the London
branch of Park Cameras
WITH a store in Central London, Park Cameras
is one of the newest Sony Alpha Centres
of Excellence. ‘We’ve been open since
December and we have the biggest range
of Sony cameras on display in Europe,’ says
the store manager, Pete Sharpe. ‘This
means that customers can come straight
in off the street and try the very latest cameras.’
Not only does the store have an impressive display
of Sony cameras, but also all the accessories you Park Cameras
could need. ‘We stock a full range of Sony kit, from 53-54 Rathbone Place
the entire collection of A-mount and E-mount lenses, London

plus all batteries and flashguns, to more bespoke Tel: 0207 186 0007
accessories,’ explains Pete.
Among the most popular Sony models at this branch are the Alpha
6000, as well as the Alpha 7 and 7R. ‘The original Cyber-shot DSC-
RX100 is still selling well and, of course, so is the RX100 II,’ Pete says.
Of course, Park Cameras isn’t just a camera store; it also has a big
space for training and seminars. ‘We had a successful Alpha 7 day,
where videographer Philip Bloom came down to demonstrate the new
cameras,’ says Pete. ‘We want Park Cameras to be a place to learn
about cameras and photography.’
To see when Park Cameras is holding its next seminar and training
days, call the store or visit www.parkcameras.com.

Dreamscapes: Finding a Place to Call Your Own
By Bob Tabor. Antique Collectors’ Club, £35, hardback, 128 pages, ISBN 978-1-85149-769-0
BOB TABOR’S ‘dreamscapes’ are actually
panoramic shots of the ocean and sky, compiled in a
book that is testament to the idea of having a special
place to call one’s own. Most people have one, with
some referring to it as their ‘happy place’, while for many,
the ocean forms a big part of theirs. There is something
calming about that vast expanse of blue. Tabor’s simple
graphic images are rather lovely to lazily flick through

and, as befits the title, it feels almost like a sleep aid.
Sometimes the ocean sits below clear, cloudless blue,
while at other times the evening is spread out against
the sky with smudges of cloud bathed
in orange. There’s not all that much to
it, and you may well experience ocean
fatigue around the halfway point, but it
is all rather peaceful.

YOU CAN’T fault a good rousing call
to action, and there are few quite so direct
as ‘Stop Stealing Photos’. This online ‘wall
of shame’ site is dedicated to naming and
shaming those who think it is acceptable to
steal the work of other photographers for
their own online portfolios – of which there
are, apparently, quite a few. The site’s owner
never wants for material. It’s genuinely
shocking how brazen

Touching Strangers
By Richard Renaldi. Aperture, £30, hardback, 120 pages, ISBN 978-1-59711-249-9
WHAT does it mean to touch another
person? In the history of our language the
word has had many meanings, almost all
of which are invoked in Richard Renaldi’s
project Touching Strangers. The concept is
beguilingly simple: what if you were to put
two strangers together and ask them to
touch one another. There’s every emotion
you might expect and many you don’t –
some people are nervous, some playful,
some intimate. In his introduction, novelist

of my hobbies using cameras such as the
Canon F-1 and more recently the Canon
EOS 5 Mark II and EOS 7D with a range of
lenses that include an L-series zoom. I have
been retired now for more than 15 years
and find these cameras and lenses rather
bulky. In an effort to reduce the weight and
bulk of the larger cameras, I bought one of
the new compact system cameras. However,
for me it was a disaster. It was too small

those from the SLR and it gave me very little
control over depth of field.

While looking in my local dealers
recently, I noticed a mint-condition EOS
100D (the smallest DSLR) and an EF-S
18-135mm IS STM lens. I purchased these
on the condition that if I was not satisfied
I could return them for something else.
However, I can only say that I am delighted
with the handling of this camera and the
performance of this lens. The results
are outstanding and the handling of the
camera is a pleasure, with the minimum of
weight and an excellent touchscreen. It is
undoubtedly the answer to all my problems.

Indeed, the Canon EOS 100D is a great
little DSLR. I even tried the Canon EF
200-400mm f/4L IS USM 1.4x lens on
it when I was testing it, although with
the lens weighing 3.6kg it did defeat the
object a little. I hope you enjoy your new

THANKS FOR THE RAMBLINGS
I have been an avid follower of Ogden
Chesnutt’s column in AP for years and in
the latest article (AP 17 May), it looks like
he’s finally winding down. A look at the
bottom of the article confirmed that his final
column will be in June. Whatever the reason
for this, I have to say I’ve always been a big
fan of his and have not missed a single one
of his columns since subscribing to AP.
Now I’m not going to plead with him to
continue – I’m sure he has sound reasons
as hinted in the article – but I just want
to thank him for sharing his thoughts. I’ve
enjoyed his ramblings on photography
a whole lot more than I initially thought I
would when I first started reading them.

that I still get to bump into him. Make

TIME FOR
TEA?
Cleaning inkjet print heads, with the ink
costing between £5,000 and £10,000 a
litre, can be an expensive and frustrating
business and not always successful at one
attempt. However, I have found that the
following works very well.
Remove the ink cartridges, put a used
tea bag in a cup and pour on boiling water.
Squeeze it out with kitchen tongs. Then
place the tea bag over the print heads and
press down gently, taking care not to split
the bag. Leave for 2-3 minutes, remove,
replace the cartridges and do a test print.
Repeat the process if needed.
Peter Mossman, Somerset
Please tell me that you are adding milk
and perhaps a little sugar to the cup?

solutions to blocked ink heads, but just

AP reader Dale Adams recalls how
a darkroom disaster almost ruined
historic D-Day landing pictures
IMAGINE the scene when unique films exposed under
heavy enemy fire are rushed from the Normandy D-Day
beach landings in France to London for rapid processing. The
expectations surrounding the results are building nervously
and senses are on edge among waiting Life magazine editorial
staff. Now try to imagine the crisis that followed when a
teenage lab assistant discovers he has set a hot drying
cabinet too high in haste, causing delicate emulsions to melt.
The result? Of four complete rolls covering 106 exposures,
just 11 frames were usable. Apparently, Robert Capa never
said a word to his bureau chief about the loss of his pictures
and ‘The Magnificent Eleven’ group (as they were termed) of
surviving shots were given dominant space on the pages of a
following issue.
Capa had been among the second American assault wave
on Omaha Beach, on 6 June 1944, holding in readiness two
Contax II cameras with 50mm standard lenses and spare
films. After two hours of frontline action, he had taken more
than 100 shots and was ready to pull out after the forces
storming Omaha faced heavy enemy resistance.
Captions accompanying The Magnificent Eleven described
the pictures as ‘slightly out of focus’, claiming that Capa’s
hands were shaking, yet in a personal account he admitted
his ‘empty camera was trembling in my hands’. His
autobiographical account published much later featured
Slightly Out Of Focus as his chosen title.
Observers have suggested that much of Capa’s work in the
war years, from the trenches and not the more usual arm’s-
length perspectives, redefined a role for action photography.
Among his favourite sayings was: ‘If your photographs aren’t
good enough, you’re not close enough.’
War action was not new to him. He had already covered,
famously, the Spanish Civil War and the Second Sino-
Japanese War, and survived the experiences. In May 1954,
he was working with two Time Life journalists covering the
First Indochina War. While travelling with a French regiment
through a known danger area, he left his Jeep and walked
towards the advancing action. There was a telling explosion
within minutes. Capa had stepped on a landmine, wounding
him fatally by the time a field hospital had been reached.
Capa’s photographic misfortunes were not confined only
to D-Day. His vast Spanish Civil War picture collection was
presumed lost for many decades after he fled Europe in
1939. The negatives appeared in the 1990s in Mexico City,
where they had been dubbed the ‘Mexican suitcase’. All items
were transferred to the Capa
Estate in 2007 and now rest in
a Manhattan museum.
As this year marks the 70th
anniversary of D-Day, there are
questions to be asked about
what the other 95 melted
exposures might have held to
show the realism facing Allied
forces on a day that helped to
change the outcome of the war.

people involved in the event. There was

much talk about many of the people there
being ‘part-time’ protesters who had taken
a week off work to support the cause.
When I was introduced to Oonagh, I
instantly had a feeling that she brought
a sense of realism and purpose to the
proceedings and I was keen for this to
be communicated in an image. I knew
then and there that I needed to capture
a portrait of her as well as create a few
documentary ‘fy-on-the-wall’ shots of
the surrounding protests. Earlier, as we
were being shown around, I remembered
I had seen the right location and made
a mental note of it.
Location is crucial to my portraits. The
environment and the consideration given to
To see more of Agenda’s it is always high on my list of priorities. I love
images, visit www. locations that have a single point of focus,
visualmarvelry.com such as a bench or a tree. I also prefer it if
they’re not too cluttered. As well as that,
I have an absolute obsession with the sky,
so I always like to include it in my images
where possible.
Since I started shooting, I’ve felt an
almost silent infuence of cinema on what
I do. I had not always been sure of how
exactly flm infuenced me, but I now know
that my images are defnitely infuenced by
my obsession with well-shot and beautifully
lit movies. In my images, there’s a certain
type of stillness. They’re atmospheric and
there’s also a notable synergy between the
person and the environment. There is a
certain type of light present in flms, which
I think exists here.
My approach to an image is always
infuenced by the combination of the
environment, person and the feeling I get
when I observe the scene. In many ways,
my camera is my voice and what I create
speaks for me – it articulates some of the
things I can’t put into words. I’m driven to
encapsulate a moment.
I took this shot with a Nikon D3X and
50mm f/1.4 lens. For the lighting, I used
fash to enhance the scene rather than
overpower the moment. I generally tend
to work with just one fash and a small
softbox (I’m not into complicated set-ups).
However, in this shot there are actually
two fashes. I used one on very low power
to illuminate Oonagh and then there’s
another in a tent behind her. Placing the
fash in the tent meant that the soft material
could diffuse the light. I knew that my

‘In many ways, my camera is my voice and
what I create speaks to me – it articulates
some of the things I can’t put into words’
lights would have to be on low power and
that the ambient atmosphere should take
the lead. Finding the location for the shot
was easy. As I mentioned earlier, I had
already taken a look around and decided
on the exact location.
I very rarely direct the subject unless a
client requests something specifc. I asked
Oonagh just to stand and be herself. I like
to let the subject and the location do their
thing, and the camera enables me to do
capture this with an image.
subscribe 0844 848 0848
In my opinion, a good portrait should
give the viewer a sense of understanding
of the person and, in some cases, even
a feeling that you have met them before
or that there is some familiarity between
you and them. This is why I love shooting
everyday people. My challenge is to
dissolve anything that gets in the way of
the audience connecting with the person.
I want to reduce the distractions, which
is also why I’m not that interested in the
equipment taking over.
I tend to spend a lot of time with my
subjects beforehand because it’s an
opportunity to build a rapport and an
understanding. The results then tend to
speak for themselves. This is important to
me because my photography is intuitive.
I’m not too rigid about the outcome and I’m
not afraid to let things happen. Once I have
understood what is needed, I like to create
a ‘mood board’ containing shots that I have
taken, as well as various other images.
My next project honestly refects the
spirit and vigour of a select group of people
who have natural prowess, leadership and
individuality, who may be unfamiliar to the
mainstream. They are doing amazing things Agenda was

AP guide to…
Patterns
and textures
There are endless photo opportunities if you take a close
look at the world around you. Lee Frost goes into detail
Try as you might, there’s just no getting
away from patterns. Wherever you go,
whatever you do, they’re there. Our homes
are full of them, from the Venetian blinds
hanging at our windows to the cutlery
arranged in our kitchen. So is nature – think
of ripples on a sandy beach, the colourful
lines in sedimentary rock or the criss-
crossing lines on a frozen puddle. Repetition
creates order from chaos, which in turn
brings strength and stability.
It’s the same in photography. Patterns
make powerful images because they attract
attention and hold it. Put one car in a car
park and you have, well, one car in a car
park. But park another 20 cars next to it
and a strong pattern emerges. It’s the same
with chimney pots on rows of Victorian
terraced houses, windows in towering offce
blocks, autumn leaves on the forest foor,
faces in a crowd, shoes on a market stall,
deckchairs on a beach… You get the idea.
Often these patterns will be so obvious

Patterns and textures AP guide
that you can’t avoid noticing them, but the
patterns that make the best photographs
tend to be more discreet. The only way to
spot them is by distancing yourself visually
from whatever you’re looking at, so instead
of seeing something purely for what it is,
you look at the lines, shapes, colours and
objects within it. In other words, you need to
view the world in an abstract way because
patterns essentially are abstracts – small
parts of a much bigger picture.
NaTure’s way
The natural world is full of fascinating
patterns, but because most of them are
on a small scale you have to really look
to fnd them. Dewdrops on a spider’s
web may stand out like a sore thumb
as they glisten in the early morning
sunlight, and you needn’t have eyes
like a hawk to recognise the potential for
a strong image in a multicoloured feld of
tulips. However, the regimented rows of
fungi on an old oak tree, the delicate
veins in a leaf or the crystals in a
snowfake are less obvious, unless
23
AP guide Patterns and textures

you’re actively seeking them.
Patterns can also be formed
simply by a lucky combination of
circumstances. Ripples and refections in
water are perfect examples. If a gust of wind
blows you get one, and when the wind dies
down you get the other. Both are patterns of
a kind and well worth shooting.
Fluctuations in the light play an important
role in creating patterns. On a dull, overcast
day the only patterns you’re going to fnd
are those that really exist, but if the sun
comes out, shadows create patterns all of
their own and lend a strong graphic quality
to your pictures.
The best time to exploit shadows is early
or late in the day, when the sun is low in
the sky and the shadows are long and thin.
Keep the sun to one side of your camera so
the shadows become an integral part of the
composition – or even become the subject
all on their own. This can look superb when
a series of shadows are cast by features like
trees, railings, columns, people walking down
the street or tables and chairs outside a
café, because you end up with a contrasting
series of lines that compete for attention
that add impact to your pictures.
Shooting from an elevated viewpoint
and looking down is another way to make
good use of shadows, or you can look for
the dappled shadow patterns cast by light
fltering through the branches of a tree.
Patterns needn’t always be regimented,
and they needn’t comprise the same
elements. You can take great pictures of
things like windows on the side of a building,
for instance, where lines, circles, squares and
different colours create several patterns at
once. Where patterns are very regimented,
as in balconies on a high-rise hotel, it’s a
good idea to try to break the pattern so your
shot has a focal point and a sense of scale.
A person standing on one of the balconies
would do the trick, or in a feld of ripening
corn all you need is a red poppy.
the right equipment
When it comes to photographing patterns,
your eyes are far more important than a
load of gear. You can take superb shots
with a smartphone or a digital compact,
although as with most subjects, a DSLR
and a few lenses will give you more scope
for capturing what you fnd.
Telephoto and telezoom lenses are ideal
for shooting patterns because they allow
you to home-in on interesting details and
exclude periphery information from the
frame. A 70-200mm or 75-300mm
zoom is ideal for the job and you can simply
adjust the focal length to crop out unwanted
detail until the composition is perfect. For
example, to make the most of the repeated
windows in an offce block you need to fll
the frame with them and keep out all traces
of sky, people or anything else that breaks
the pattern.

Patterns in nature tend to be on a
much smaller scale, so you will need to
move in closer to fll the frame. In many
cases, the macro facility on a zoom lens,
or a 50mm standard prime lens, will
allow you to focus close enough on things
like the patterns created by fungi, tree
bark, condensation on a window, lichens,
seaweed and so on.
For smaller subjects, a macro lens or
some kind of close-focusing aid - such as
an extension tube or close-up lens - will
be necessary. This is where it gets exciting,
because by moving in really close, you can
emphasise patterns that perhaps weren’t
obvious to the naked eye, such as the
veins and cells in a backlit leaf or crystal
formations in ice.
Whichever lens you decide to use, the
key is to think carefully about each shot.

Patterns and textures AP guide
Achieving that is all down to subject
choice and lighting. Obviously, it helps if the
subject you begin with actually has a texture,
although most things do. Rough surfaces
such as rock and tree bark are ideal because
they have an obvious texture. We also know
what those textures feel like so our brain
makes an immediate association when we
see photographs of them. The coastline is a
perfect place to fnd interesting rocks, with
barnacles and lichens thrown in for good
measure, while woodland and gardens are
obvious locations for tree bark and other
natural textures. Peeling paintwork is always
a good one too – look for it on old fshing
boats and fshermen’s huts, and keep an eye
our for coils of rope and piles of fshing nets.
Lighting can make or break a good
texture shot. Flat, overcast days
aren’t as useful because the light is
too soft – you need strong light that

Mono can be a very

that is perfect
for patterns

Patterns in mono
If Pure , unadulterated patterns are your goal, then consider converting your
shots to black & white. By removing colour, far more emphasis can be placed on the
patterns and textures within a subject or scene. Often it is possible to reveal powerful
patterns that weren’t obvious in reality, simply because the colour provided too much
of a distraction and the eye couldn’t see beyond it.
Black & white is a very graphic medium, because it reduces everything to a bare
minimum and reveals the bones of a scene. Lines, shapes, and the play of light and
shade suddenly become far more important, and the viewer no longer fnds a picture
appealing because they can identify the subject, but because of the visual strength
created by the elements within it.

glances over the surface of whatever DIY textures

it is that you’re shooting.
Early morning and late afternoon
on a sunny day are generally the best times
because the sun is low in the sky and the
light rakes across everything to reveal the
fnest of textures. Ripples in sand look fat
for most of the day, but in the frst half hour
after sunrise and the last half hour before
sunset even the gentlest of ripples are
revealed by long, weak shadows that are
cast across them.
The low sun is also good for revealing
texture in buildings, such as stone, brick,
weathered timber, torn posters, rusting
metal. But don’t discount the middle of the
day. It’s not so useful for natural textures,
especially those on the ground, but in the
The low angle of urban landscape it can work brilliantly, as
the sun is perfect the overhead sun glances down walls. It has
for revealing the the same effect on vertical surfaces as the
ripples in sand low sun does on horizontal ones, so you can
shoot textures at any time of day.
Alternatively, create your own texture
shots by lighting objects artifcially. A slide
projector or digital projector is ideal for
this because you can place it next to your
subject and then use the powerful light to
reveal texture. A powerful torch would work
too, but a projector has a stronger beam of
light and you can vary its size by adjusting
focus on the lens.
Try this technique with dried leaves
and fruits, dead fowers, seashells, pieces
of driftwood and anything else you can
think of – just arrange them on a suitable
background on the ground, place the
projector a few feet away, aim the beam
of light from the lens and then shoot from
above your subject. You’ll need to change
the white balance setting on your camera
to tungsten so the images come out looking
natural, but other than that it’s easy and
highly effective and a great way to spend a
wet Sunday afternoon! AP

two Manchu photographing ordinary people in their
soldiers daily lives.
Thomson’s achievements are all the
greater because he worked at a time
when photographic equipment was heavy,
bulky and awkward, and the results were
unpredictable. Despite these limitations, he
produced a signifcant body of high-quality
work that now has great historical interest.
He initially studied chemistry (an essential
skill for any photographer in the period) in
his native Edinburgh, before setting sail for
Singapore at the age of 25. There he set
up a business making marine chronometers
and optical instruments with his brother,
William. He also opened a photographic
studio specialising in portraits of merchants.
His fascination for the culture of the region
led him to travel widely through Malaya and
Sumatra, where he photographed native
people. He also travelled to India and Ceylon
(now Sri Lanka), then Siam (now Thailand)
and Cambodia, where he shot portraits
of those countries’ kings. He extensively
documented the ancient Angkor Wat temple
in Cambodia.
Thomson returned to Britain in 1866,
where he published his photographs and
gave lectures on his work, before returning
to the Far East the following year. He set up
a studio in Hong Kong, from where he made
frequent trips to China during the next four
years to photograph its people and culture
in the fnal decades of imperial rule. His
travels in the region included a 3,000-mile
journey along the Yangtze River.
Photographing in remote regions at the
time was fraught with diffculty. Thomson
used the most advanced method available
at the time, the wet-plate collodion process,
but the large wooden cameras and tripods
were cumbersome and the processing
chemicals were often hard to fnd.
The fragile glass plates had to be coated
with light-sensitive chemicals and exposed
while still wet, then immediately developed
and fxed. Thomson would have used
a portable darkroom, which included a
light-tight sheet of material and bottles
of hazardous chemicals.
After spending almost ten years travelling,
Thomson returned to Britain in 1872 and
settled in London. He published more books
detailing his travels and wrote technical
articles for periodicals. In 1876, he began
the project for which he is best known: Street
Life in London. This was a monthly magazine
that Thomson produced in partnership with
the journalist Adolphe Smith.
Its purpose was to highlight the plight of
London’s poor, who were either begging
on the streets or forced to work hard for
long hours and little pay. Although Britain
was wealthy and economically prosperous,
there was growing concern among social
reformers that little was being done to help
those in poverty.
Thomson believed that photography could
be a valuable tool in showing the
‘struggle for life’ on London’s streets
with ‘unquestionable accuracy’. In

Moscow rain Max Saprykin Fujifilm X20, 28-112mm, 1/40sec at f/2.2, ISO 1600
THERE’S a lot going on in
Original Max’s atmospheric picture of
a rainy evening in the Russian
capital, and it is easy to see what
caught his eye and made him
take his camera out to get this
shot. I think the subject is the
couple under the umbrella, but
Max is giving us other powerful
things to look at too, which
make me question whether the
couple are the subject or not. Of
course they are, but the man in
on the left is trying to grab our
attention – first by being well
lit and exposed, and second by
looking towards us. He is better
exposed than the couple, who
don’t have eye contact with us.
There is a further element
trying to draw our eyes away from
the rather annoyed but nicely
Cropped and brightened side-lit lady, and that is the bright
light shining through the glass of
the shelter. As it is in the middle
(and by far the brightest) part of
the frame, it is hard to ignore.
When we come across
scenes like this we have to make
choices, and in this situation Max
Curves needed to concentrate on one
subject – or to take two pictures,
as I’ve shown the original divided
Channel Mixer

42 www.amateurphotographer.co.uk I 7 June 2014
in half in my examples.
To get anyone to concentrate
on the girl we need to cut away
the distractions and make her
brighter. I’ve used an unusual
shaped curve to brighten her
face enough to draw the eye
without blowing out all the
highlights. I’ve kept the dark
tones very dark too, as the
strong contrast maintains the
atmosphere of the scene.
The red umbrella is a classic of
photography, but it only deserves
to be when it is a subject. Here
the girl is the subject, and the
umbrella is not very interesting in
its own right. I used a red/green
channel mix, emulating the effect
of an orange filter, to switch the
scene to monochrome. The
upright crop still left too much
space above the subject, so I got
rid of it with a square crop. I then
re-injected a hint of that original
tungsten-orange glow with a
colour layer overlaid on the black
& white frame.
The edit is a nice image and
at least it is clearer what we are
supposed to look at. Well seen,
Max, but give us less to distract
ourselves with next time.

PICTURE Through a window

OF THE Maria Louceiro
WEEK Canon EOS 350D, 55mm, 1/320sec at
f/5.6, ISO 1600

THIS is an outstandingly beautiful image,

and very classic in style. It reminds me
of the kind of moments the American
photographer and painter Saul Leiter
captured with his Argus C3 – mixed
perhaps with countless wonderful street
photographers from the middle of the last
century. It is a timeless image that has just
enough on show to get our interest, and
enough concealed to create a delightful
sense of mystery.
I only wonder if the colour is a little
strong. It is the coloration that I see first,
rather than the subject, which makes me
question Maria’s use of it. I’ve produced
another version, with a little less magenta
and overall saturation, but I’m not sure
which works best. And please notice that,
like Saul himself, Maria used an everyday
camera to shoot this – nothing expensive.
It’s a wonderful shot, Maria that deserves
my picture of the week award. Well done.

Original to get our interest’ Edited

At least the pigeons are happy Mike Gould Nikon D90, 18-105mm, 1/125sec at f/5.6, ISO 200
MIKE describes this image as ‘A grim day at the
beginning of 2013, taken in one of my local parks’, and Original After curves adjustment
it really is a very grim-looking image. The problem with
miserable pictures like this is that people tend to turn away
and look at something else. I wonder too if Mike meant it to
be a miserable picture or that is just the way it turned out.
There is no getting around the type of day it is, but we
can work a bit harder to create an interesting picture. First,
we need to correct the exposure, as Mike has allowed the
camera to rear up at the sight of snow, producing a grey
layer on the park floor. We don’t want the snow to become
a blank white, but it does need to look almost white.
To achieve this balance, I adjusted the midtone slider
in Levels to brighten the whole scene, and then lifted the Edited
lighter midtones using Curves. The curve also pinned
down the shadows, to add some weight and definition
to the pigeons, the man and the bench he is sitting on.
Mike could have done this at the time of exposure, with
a +2EV adjustment to the metering.
The tones are about right now, but the red brick of
the building in the background, and the man in the
high-visibility jacket, are overpowering the subjects in
the foreground. The only answer for this is to take out
the colour, which I did using a red channel conversion in
Channel Mixer. The red channel monochrome is bright and
punchy, giving us good dense blacks. All that remained to
do was to crop the excess image area from the top and
bottom of the frame, to concentrate our attention and to
create a nice widescreen movie-style format to the picture.
We can see that the scene is still quite miserable,
but now I think the picture is more exciting with some
additional atmosphere.

On the waterfront
The Lake District is not only AP reader Rob Howell’s favourite
shooting location, but it’s also his home, and few people
know it better. He gives Jon Stapley a few tips
THEY SAY that you never have to
venture beyond your doorstep for a good
photograph. In much the same way that it’s
the photographer and not the camera that
takes a great picture, it’s the photographer
and not the subject that makes a great
picture. So while it is certainly nice to load
up the car and head off to somewhere like
the Lake District, it is worth remembering
that a great and memorable photograph
can always be found by looking just outside
your house. Of course, this is more literally
true if you actually do live in the Lake
District, like AP reader Rob Howell.
That helps.

for as long as he’s lived there, and it’s clear
just from talking to him that he knows the
Lakes like most people know their own back
gardens. In no time at all, we set to trying to
prise some secrets out of him.
AP So, what kicked off your
journey into photography?
RH It was about seven years ago.
It was just by the nature of
the places in North Wales I was going to
through the sports I’m into – climbing and
mountaineering. Going to the sorts of places
where you do these kinds of things makes
you naturally want to take photographs
anyway. Then I started to take a bit more
interest in what I was doing.

AP And after that you moved
to the Lake District, which is
possibly one of the most photographed
places in the country. How do you make
your photographs different to the
legions of others taken there each year?
RH Local knowledge really helps.
One thing I’ve noticed, having
lived here for quite a few years, is that the
famous locations, the places that people
are keen to go to, the ones you see photos
of over and over again, tend to be actually
roadside. The most photographed locations
are literally by the side of the road! It’s a

weather isn’t as important – I go
out a lot when the weather forecast
is very mixed, because that often produces
really dramatic lighting.
AP Living in the Lake District, you
must see it in all seasons and
weathers. With summer practically upon

the Lakes in the summer months?

in the south-east corner of the District, so
if I want to head out to the west or to the
north-west I have to plan for the hour and
a half’s drive it’ll take to get there. If I want a
morning shot I’m restricted to wild camping,
and in the evenings I’m guaranteed to be
out very late. And then the other thing: the
tourists. The population quadruples over the
summer. The roads are really busy – you
can’t go anywhere popular. That’s when you
really have to scratch your head and think,
‘Right, where can I go? Where are people
not going to be?’

producing dramatic skies and
interesting scenes, and can often make
the light much easier to work with,
acting like a giant softbox for the sun.
3
GET AWAY FROM THE
ROADSIDE As Rob says, the
most popular locations in the
Lake District are closest to where
people can park. Move away from the
car and you might stumble on scenes
no one else has found.
4
TRY CAMPING OUT If Rob wants
to catch both the sunset and
sunrise in a particular location,
he sets up a wild camp for the night.
You need a lightweight tent and a spot
where you can see both east and west.
5
BE PREPARED TO REACT
QUICKLY If Rob sees a shot,
depending on the wind or the
light he snaps a few frames as fast as
he can. ‘I’ll try to get the tripod out as a
back-up, but often it’s gone by the time
it’s out of the bag,’ he says.
AP Is there anything you prefer
about the Lakes in summer?
RH [long silence] Not so much.

ROB’S FAVOURITE
PHOTOGRAPH
ROB SAYS this is probably his
favourite photograph at the moment,
just because the light is so unusual. ‘It
goes back to what I was saying about
how hard it is to get original shots
of a popular area,’ he adds. ‘The day
was really cloudy, with some heavy
showers, and I’d just gone for a walk
and hoped for the best. I got to the
top of a hill, and then suddenly the
clouds broke up and there was this
massive blast of sunshine. Without
that light there wasn’t even a photo
worth taking, but the way it lit the
scene really dramatically created
something unique. You could go back
there hundreds of times and never
have the same lighting again.’

Leica T (Type 701)
Leica’s compact system camera has finally arrived, but how
will Leica users feel about the 16.3-million-pixel Leica T (Type
701) and its radical design and handling? We put it to the test
Richard Sibley
Deputy editor
HANDS up if you want to own a Leica
M-system digital rangefinder camera? OK,
hands down again. Hands up if you can
afford one? What about the lenses? Buy a
Leica M, or even the less expensive Leica
M-E, factor in two or three lenses, and you
could easily spend £10,000.
Leica cameras cost as much as they do
due to the use of high-quality materials
and German construction. There is little
expense spared. Yet Leica cameras are
designed to be functional. They are not
just pretty, well-constructed cameras,

but tools that could last a lifetime.
That’s not to say the Leica M system is
perfect. Some of us prefer the convenience
of autofocus, and some would rather not
have to remortgage our homes to own
one. So why doesn’t Leica make a more
conventional compact system camera? Well,
the company finally has, with the launch of
the new Leica T (Type 701).
The new system looks set to answer the
needs of many different users, but the main
one will be the price. At £1,350, it is far
more affordable than a Leica M-system
camera, but the company has cut no
corners in the construction, style and quality
of the camera. So, for those wanting the
experience of owning a Leica camera, it has
just become a little easier on the wallet.
However, as we will find out, the design is
somewhat radical, and will no doubt divide

many as to whether it is contemporary and
forward thinking, or whether design has won
over function. Let’s find out what the Leica T
is actually like to use.
FEATURES
The Leica T has a 16.3 million-pixel, APS-C-
sized CMOS sensor, with a sensitivity range
AT A of ISO 100-12,500. There are no extended

has the usual selection of automatic,
aperture and shutter priority
exposure modes, as well as manual
and a small number of scene modes. The
scene modes are just one indication that
Leica is targeting a new market with the
Leica T, but the biggest indication of this is
the fact that the camera uses a touchscreen.
The camera’s sleek design, scene modes
and touchscreen show that Leica is perhaps
aiming at a younger, less conservative
audience than it is with its Leica M-series
cameras. This younger market is more
used to handling a camera touchscreen
on a smartphone, with built-in memory,
and is quite happy to spend £500 on a
smartphone and £1,000 on a sleek laptop.
Wi-Fi connectivity is built in to the Leica
T, making it easy to share images between
the camera and a smartphone. The Leica T
app is currently only available for Apple iOS,
but as well as sharing images it also allows
for the camera to be remotely controlled via
an iPhone or iPad. This really is a modern
and forward-thinking camera. In fact, many
people have described it as what Apple would
make if it made a compact system camera.

BUILD AND HANDLING
I had two initial reactions when I picked
up the Leica T for the first time. My first
was, ‘Wow! This camera is beautifully
designed and crafted from a single block
of aluminium.’ Interestingly, this is a very
similar technique to the way that Apple
– a premium brand, like Leica, that has
managed to cross over into the mainstream
market – makes some of its MacBook
laptop computers.
Leica joined forces with Audi when it came
to designing the Leica T, and the result really
is beautiful. The camera’s sleek finish is the
result of polishing the camera, by hand, for
45 minutes after it has been milled. Above left: The about the idea. However, the 3.7in

FEATURES IN USE TOUCHSCREEN OPERATION

WITH virtually no physical controls
on the Leica T, most settings are
changed using the touchscreen’s
virtual menu system. At first glance
these appear to be basic settings, but
they are actually fully customisable.
By pressing the on-screen settings
button, the main menu opens to
reveal a series of simple on-screen
buttons. These control features
such as the AF or shooting mode,
or the colour setting in use. Initially,
I thought the camera was missing
a number of key settings, but a
quick press of the ‘+’ button reveals
a further set of buttons that can
be added to the menu. In fact, it
is possible to customise the menu
buttons so you can decide which
settings you want and the order in
which you want them. Holding down
one of the on-screen buttons allows
it to be dragged to a new position
on the screen, so you can place the
settings used most frequently to a
premium spot.
Changing the settings is
straightforward. Some of the buttons,
such as the AF mode, can be altered
with a simple tap, such as switching
from AF to manual focus, and then
it is tapped again to switch back. The
same applies to image resolution.
There are five image resolutions,
from 16.3 million pixels to 1.8 million
pixels. Pressing the on-screen button
cycles through each setting.
Other buttons, such as the colour
mode, reveal an on-screen menu
when pressed. You simply press the
required setting, such as vivid or
black & white high contrast.
Up to three user profiles can also
be created. These allow the on-
screen custom menu layouts to be
saved, so if more than one person is
using the camera each can call up his
or her own set-up menu. Alternatively,
different profiles can be used for
different styles of photography.
When it comes to playing back
images you have taken, I won’t
reveal here how you do this, as it
will spoil the fun, but it is actually
straightforward – if you know
how to do it…

takes the highlights The one slight quirk with the Leica T’s
right to the point of touchscreen AF selection is that once the
clipping point has been selected and focused, a half-
depress of the shutter button doesn’t refocus.
This means that if you select a point and then
want to recompose slightly, you have to select
the point again rather than half-depressing
the shutter button. Another thing that may be
slightly annoying is the lack of a screw thread
on the Leica T shutter button, although with
the camera having Wi-Fi remote control this
shouldn’t be too much of an issue.
Given the quality of the Leica T’s body, it
is a shame that the door for the memory
card and USB sockets is made of plastic.
The reason for the use of plastic is to enable
the use of Wi-Fi, which won’t transmit
through metal. Similarly, the battery door is
plastic, but this also has a bizarre unlocking
mechanism that is either annoying or a
genius idea. A lever unlocks the battery
cover, but when you try to pull the battery
out you can’t. You have to half-push the
battery and cover back into the body to
release a catch to enable the battery to
come out. I presume that this system has
been set up to prevent the battery from just
dropping to the floor, but I think it is a little
over-designed.

Leica T (Type 701) Camera test
AUTOFOCUS
Unlike more recent compact system
cameras that have either a hybrid or
phase-detection AF system, the Leica T
uses a contrast AF system, which is more
conventional for a CSC. That is not to say
the Leica’s AF is inferior. Contrast-detection
AF can be more accurate than other
methods, and overall I found that the
Leica T confidentially found focus in good
light. Although it wasn’t the fastest AF
system I have seen on a compact system
camera, it was fast enough to meet the
demands of the photographers at whom
the camera is aimed.
In low light, the AF of the Leica T struggled
a little, although the AF illuminator on the
front helped the camera to lock focus on
subjects that were up to a few metres away.
Selecting the AF point via the touchscreen
was a real benefit and I found that it was the
AF mode I regularly used. Face detection
and multi-point AF modes are also available,
as is manual focus.

METERING
The Leica T has spot and centreweighted
metering, as well as evaluative (or, as Leica
calls it, multi-field). I used the Leica T in
bright sunlight and very dark, overcast
conditions, taking a variety of shots, and
the multi-field metering produced excellent
results almost without exception.
The metering will take highlights
right to the point of clipping, which

NOISE, RESOLUTION
AND SENSITIVITY
It may sound quite obvious, but to get the
best from the Leica T you really need to
shoot raw images. While the JPEGs are
sharp from both lenses used with the
camera, the JPEG compression, noise
reduction and image processing can just
take the edge off the camera to reveal
what is a staggering amout of detail for a
16.3-million-pixel camera.
The raw files reveal much more detail.
A quick tweak to the sharpness and local
contrast of the DNG raw images improves
the detail resolution, and applying just a
tweak of luminance noise reduction in
Adobe Camera Raw goes a long way to
taking the edge off any noise that begins
to appear at ISO 400.
As can be seen in our resolution charts
(page 52), the Leica T only really resolves
detail up to around 26lpmm at ISO 100.
This is about the same as most other
cameras with good 16-million-pixel sensors.
However, looking at the raw images it is clear
to see that the camera still recognises lines
right up to the maximum value of 40lpmm.
Not all the lines are present, so unlike the
Nikon D800E and the Sony Alpha 7R, it
doesn’t outresolve the chart, but it does
register some lines and detail. Most other
cameras of this resolution would simply
produce a blur by this point.
We conducted our resolution chart
tests with both the 23mm f/2 and the
18-56mm f/3.6-5.6 lenses, set to a
focal length of around 35mm. Both
lenses showed a very similar degree
of detail in the centre, with little to pick
between the two.
Colour noise is very well controlled in
56 www.amateurphotographer.co.uk I 7 June 2014

JPEG images throughout the ISO sensitivity
range, although there are some hints of
purple and magenta noise at ISO 6400
and above. Luminance noise reduction does
reduce the level of fine detail, but overall it
leaves enough texture on most surfaces so
the image is not obliterated. Knowing these
limitations, I would happily shoot between
ISO 100 and ISO 1600, but I would make
sure that I was shooting raw+JPEG to really
get the most from the camera.
DNG raw files are easily edited in Camera
Raw and it is possible to remove virtually
all colour noise from even high-sensitivity
images. Luminance noise can be reduced,
and again, far more detail can be resolved
in comparison to the JPEG files.
26/30
VIEWFINDER, LIVE VIEW,
LCD AND VIDEO
Those photographers who were hoping
for the Leica T to be more akin to a micro
version of a Leica M-series rangefinder will
no doubt be disappointed by the lack of
optical viewfinder. An electronic viewfinder is
available in the form of the Leica T Visoflex,
which will cost around £400. I didn’t have
the chance to use the Visoflex during our
test of the camera, but look out for a
review of it in a future issue.
The 3.7in touchscreen looks excellent.
With a 1.3-million-dot resolution, images
look detailed and vibrant, and the screen
displays a good level of contrast. The screen
is similar in size, design and finish to that of
an Apple iPhone 4. It is also bright enough
to be used easily on a summer’s day.
As a camera designed for photographers,
video is something of an afterthought on the
Leica T. Full 1920x1080-pixel resolution
can be captured at 30fps, but there is no
external mic port. However, the accessory
shoe on top of the camera has numerous
connections, so while a microphone
accessory isn’t currently available, it may
be in the future.

Competition
Sony NEX-7 Fujifilm X-Pro1
TESTED AP 19 NOVEMBER 2011 TESTED AP 31 MARCH 2012
THE LEICA T enters one of the most hard-fought
areas of the compact system camera market, with the
24.3-million-pixel Sony NEX-7 currently one of the best-
selling cameras. The NEX-7 is a few years old now, and can
be found for just £650 with a kit zoom lens, making it good
value. It shares similar dual control dials with the Leica T.
Those who were hoping for a full-frame compact system
camera should look no further than the Sony Alpha 7,
which is around £1,500 including a kit lens, and third-party
mounts are available for Leica M lenses. However, if you
were hoping for something more like a rangefinder, then
the best option is the Fujifilm X-Pro1 with a 16 million-pixel
X-Trans sensor and a hybrid optical and digital viewfinder. It
costs around £900 with a 18mm f/2 pancake lens.
Verdict
THE LEICA T probably wasn’t what most people were
expecting when they imagined a Leica CSC. The lack of an
M mount, viewfinder and control buttons will no doubt mean
that many photographers write this camera off without even
picking it up, which would be a shame.
While the control system may be unconventional, it is
functional, fairly straightforward and, more importantly,
much easier to use than that found on other cameras that
have gone down the touchscreen-only route. It is a great
piece of design, and while it lacks a few more advanced
controls, it certainly isn’t lacking in key features, such as
touchscreen AF point selection and Wi-Fi connectivity.
In terms of image quality, the Leica T performs well. It
matches some of the best 16-million-pixel DSLRs in terms
of resolution, with a good level of noise control.
The Leica T isn’t too expensive, although the major catch
is that the two lenses currently available cost as much as the
camera itself so the price rises from £1,350 to £2,500.
I like the Leica T and as a travel camera it would be a
good companion. However, it doesn’t really do enough to
convince me that I should buy it over, say, a Fujifilm X-Pro1,
Fujifilm X-T1 or full-frame Sony Alpha 7.

Intuos Pro
Callum McInerney-Riley tests Wacom’s latest pen-and-touch tablet. Boasting wireless functionality
and a pen with 2,048 levels of pressure sensitivity, is it the perfect tool for photo retouching?
FOR MANY years, Wacom tablets have
been considered industry-standard tools for
creative professionals. They are commonly
used for photo retouching, illustration,
graphic design and architectural drawing,
among others. A graphics tablet allows
users to sketch, draw, plot, retouch and
design with far more accuracy than the
conventional mouse set-up.
Last August, Wacom revamped its
tablets and brought us the Intuos and the
Intuos Pro range. The Intuos series is an
entry-level pen-and-touch tablet, while the
Intuos Pro series is the high-end pen-and-
touch tablet aimed at enthusiasts rather
than beginners. The Pro suits the kind of
photographer who spends a lot of time on
post-production.
FEATURES
There are three versions of the Intuos
Pro. The small version measures
320x208x12mm and the area where the
pen is active is 157x98mm. The medium
version measures 380x251x12mm with an
active area of 224x140mm, while the large
version has dimensions of 487x318x12mm
with an active area of 325x203mm.
The pen boasts 2,048 levels of pressure
sensitivity with 60 levels of tilt sensitivity.
With such a high range of sensitivity and
tilt functionality it is possible to emulate
traditional brushes, pens and pencils to
give photographers more control.
Wireless functionality is included with the
Intuos Pro. It is powered by a battery that
is charged via Micro-USB. A small wireless
Wacom Europe GmbH, Europark Fichtenhain A9, 47807 Krefeld, Germany. Tel: 0207 744 0831. www.wacom.eu
adapter plugs in to the USB port, and so
long as you have the drivers it’s ready to go.
The medium and large tablets have eight
programmable keys, while the small version
has six. Wacom calls the programmable
keys ExpressKeys. These can be customised
to any shortcut you wish, such as launching
Adobe Photoshop or something as simple
as adjusting your computer’s volume.
In addition, application-specific shortcuts
can be set up. For example, users can
customise one of the ExpressKeys with the
Photoshop shortcut for ‘step backwards’
- Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Z - and this would work
exclusively in Photoshop. This allows users
to configure their set-up depending on
what they are editing and continue to edit
without disrupting their workflow.
In the middle of the ExpressKeys is a
touch ring. This has four customisable
functions and by moving a finger clockwise
or counter-clockwise, this ring can perform
functions such as brush resizing and
zooming in and out.
The Intuos Pro has multi-touch
capabilities, allowing users to control it using
their finger. Essentially, you can turn the
Intuos Pro into a giant trackpad complete
with gestures.
PERFORMANCE
As the small version of the Intuos Pro is
smaller than a 15in laptop, I found it was
easy to transport it for editing on the go and
the active area was sufficient enough for
most image edits. However, if I had no plans
to carry it around, then the medium would
7 June 2014 I www.amateurphotographer.co.uk
Wacom Intuos Tablet test
be the best size.
With 2,048 levels of pressure, the pen
can be fine-tuned in Photoshop using flow
and opacity and then it becomes incredibly
responsive. Also, with custom-textured
brushes, it’s far easier to retouch blemishes
on skin without making specific areas look
out of place. AP
Verdict
FOR THOSE people who spend
a lot of time poring over pixels in
Photoshop, a tablet is certainly
a worthwhile purchase. The
Wacom Intuos Pro has numerous
customisable buttons that take a
while to get accustomed to, but once
you’re used to them it supercharges
your workflow. Things such as
sampling an area, changing a tool
and resizing a brush are all as
simple as a tap of an ExpressKey
or a twiddle of the touch ring. If a
good image has the potential to be
a great image,
the Wacom
Intuos Pro will
help you to
achieve that.

AP GLOSSARY
Long-exposure noise
Last week’s glossary took a look at high
ISO noise, but there’s another cause of
this unwanted texture that can degrade
the fine detail in our images – long
exposures. Unlike high ISO noise, which
is largely a result of signal amplification,
long-exposure noise is a result of
heat. Whenever your sensor is actively
recording an image, it generates heat.
The longer the exposure, the greater the
heat build up is, and there will come a
point when ‘thermal noise’ starts to have
an adverse effect on your images.
However, the good news with long-
exposure noise is that it’s consistent, so it
is easier to identify and – if not eradicate
entirely – at least reduce. In this case, the
answer comes in the form of ‘dark-frame
subtraction’, which you will probably find
in your camera’s menus labelled ‘long-
exposure noise reduction’ (or similar).
When activated, long-exposure noise
reduction tells the camera to make
two exposures. The first is a ‘normal’
long exposure, in that the camera
opens the shutter and exposes the
turns out not to be your perfect partner, it’s
unlikely that you’d lose more than a couple
of pounds selling it on, and certainly a lot
less than you’d lose if you bought new and
made the wrong choice.
Having said that, if second-hand is
a definite turn-off, perhaps Canon’s
PowerShot G1 X is the one for you. Again,
it seems to tick most of the right boxes, and
its 14.3-million-pixel, 18.7x14mm sensor
(bigger than micro four thirds) delivers
image quality comparable to some APS-C
DSLRs. It does fall short when it comes to its
close-up performance, though. The macro
mode only focuses down to 20cm with the
lens at a wideangle, 28mm equivalent focal
length setting. This makes the optional FA-
DC58C filter adapter and a 58mm screw-in
close-up lens almost essential if you have
any close-up aspirations, adding both bulk
and cost. You can expect to pay £450-
£500 for the camera, adapter and a +10
dioptre close-up lens, but that is perhaps a
little more than the ‘reasonable price’ you
alluded to. Chris Gatcum

Immediately after the first exposure, a
second exposure is made for the same pieces of essential kit

open, so the ‘image’ that the sensor for your summer travels,
records should be entirely black (if the

building up on the sensor, this second

ALTHOUGH the Minolta Vectis S-100 is barely Editorial team
a teenager, it is already less usable than most Group Editor Nigel Atherton
cameras in my collection, including those nearing Group Editor’s PA Christine Lay
Deputy Editor Richard Sibley
100 years of age. The reason is that the APS Deputy Technical Editor Michael Topham
format, which the Vectis uses, was a short-lived Technical Writer Jonathan Devo
innovation, and it was swept away by the advancing Technical Writer Callum McInerney-Riley
tide of affordable digital cameras at the turn of Features & Technique Editor Phil Hall

be exploited by all APS cameras. The entire film Production Editor Lesley Upton

camera could write digital information, that was
later read by the processing equipment and used to
set different aspect ratios for the prints. Information
could also be printed on the back of the photos.
In common with most newly introduced film
formats, cameras were made with various degrees
of sophistication, ranging from a simple fixed-
shutter-speed, fixed-focus, fixed-aperture point and
shoots, to SLR systems with interchangeable lenses.
The major players – Nikon, Canon and, in this case,
Minolta – all produced APS models, but these seem
to have found their way more quickly than any other
format into the junk boxes at car-boot sales and
charity shops. Some obsolete film formats can be
‘hacked’ by the enthusiast, for example, by slitting
larger film and re-rolling old spools. However, I defy
anybody to reload an APS cassette. APS can still
be found online, but the last batches were made
in 2011, so it’s only a matter of time before they
disappear altogether. These cameras have joined
other illustrious dead formats like the 126 cartridge,
although that was in production for 45 years,
compared to 15 years for APS.
There were a number of very small, neat and
well-specified APS cameras,
which I can understand might
have been attractive to the
discerning holiday photographer,
but the Vectis S-100 is a
heavy, bulky affair, and is quite
unwieldy compared to, say, the
Minolta Dynax 5 full-frame
SLR of the same era. Given
that the negative size of the
Vectis is only 56% of that of
the Dynax, it’s difficult to see
why someone in the market
for a single-lens reflex would
plump for APS over 35mm.
That said, it has a zoom
lens with a useful 5:1 ratio,
and various programmable
exposure modes, including
