M10 vs M240 ISO Series from 100 to 6400: Dolls
Firmware version 1.9.4.0.
This ISO series from ISO 100 to ISO 6400 with both the M10 and the M240 assesses and compares the relative noise from each camera.
Includes image at full resolution (albeit cropped to 4K wide), from ISO 100 through ISO 6400 for both cameras. ALSO includes the full series (grayscale) for each of the red and green and blue color channels from the ProPhotoRGB color space as well as a gray gamma 2.2 grayscale series. These series really delves into the notable differences between the two cameras in terms of noise. A few years of sensor advances are worth waiting for.
Black and white shooters may find the color channels useful in seeing just how much better than M10 performs over the M240, in terms of the latitude for high quality black and white conversion.

- Save money by choosing the right lens for your needs the first time, particularly the Summilux/Summicron/Elmarit choice and/or Zeiss ZM.
- Make better images, a sort of “cheat sheet” saving yourself months or years of ad-hoc learning. Processing parameters are discussed and shown.
- Jaw-dropping image quality found nowhere else utilizing Retina-grade images up to full camera resolution, plus large crops [past 2 years or so].
- Real world examples with insights found nowhere else. Make sharper images just by understanding lens behavior you won’t read about elsewhere.
- Aperture series from wide open through stopped down, showing the full range of lens performance and bokeh.
- Optical quality analysis of field curvature, focus shift, sharpness, flare, distortion, and performance in the field.
