we have lived in a post colonial world for a while now, so it’s hard to see the value in keeping the old stereotypes alive and promoting this kind of image making as a valid way for photography to be in the world. This video is a great example of the way westerners use people of color as the background scenery for white narratives. When critics say that photography isn’t neutral in things like objectification of the other, and promoting a colonial world view, etc videos like this are exactly what they are talking about. At this point it is impossible to parody Leica because the company has become a perfect parody of itself.

Just a minor correction, onm the D-Lux 8 (unlike the Q3) you cannot export or import profiles. Not a problem at the moment as it’s the original firmware but I do hope that when they issue an update it does not delete all your profiles - I changed quite a few of mine having watched your video!

Hola Nick desde Buenos Aires! I just bought my D-Lux 8 a couple of weeks ago and LOVE it, and your video really helps me with my settings! I have made my adjustments per your video and works great, so thank you! One question, in Scene Mode, the "Miniature Effect" or the "HDR" is not highlighted, and does not allow me to press it. What can I do to make work? Gracias Guillermo

Very clear explanation! But.. His example of using jpeg for bird photography is a bit unfortunate. In wild-life photography you want the raw files because of dynamic range that is retrained in the raw files.You want that additional data for processing the images later.. yes there are lot of pictures to sort to, but you want that additional data!

Thanks for the walkthrough! One question: Is there an option to quickly toggle between focal lengths? I assume there is not. But maybe it would be possible for you to suggest that to Leica for a firmware update. I imagine it like on the Q - System, where you can toggle between the (virtual) vocal lengths. In this case probably 24, 35, 50, 75mm. So when you see something and push the button three times, you know it will be at 50mm.

Many thanks, Nick, for this excellent review. Seeing the D-LUX 8 as a major facelift of its predecessor Leica have worked on all major weaknesses, including the menu structure which appears so much more mature and intuitive. Although as a conscious user of zoom lenses I also miss the "step zoom" and "zoom resume" features I'll definitely upgrade to this model. I do trust a firmware update will bring these back.
