The Leica D-Lux 5 also has different aspect ratio’s one can choose with a simple slider-switch above the lens. Here, I selected the 1:1 aspect ratio to give a classic Hasselblad square feel to the image. Aperture priority, F2.0 JPEG straight out of the camera.

I shot this image of a light with a Leica D-Lux 5 on dynamic B&W mode. What a sweet little camera! At f/2.0 on Aperture Priority ode, I even got some blur / bokeh happening front and back of the point of focus.

Recently I was downtown at night after a rain. I noticed how nice some of the backlit advertising panels reflected on the wet streets as people rushed back and forth on their way home after work etc.. I focused my 50mm lens across the street an at 400 ISO, 1/60 f/1.4. I shot a few images hand-held as people passed the signs. I liked the play between the posture of the dancers on the signs and that of the man on the street as he walked by in a sort of dance of his own. Sometimes, all you need is a little light to make an image.
