The Leica D-Lux 6 is one of the top choices for photographers who
want an advanced camera they can carry around to capture great
images without the complication and weight of a DSLR or other large
camera. With features such as a very fast lens with an aperture of
f/1.4, excellent image quality, and a solid array of burst-shooting
capabilities, the D-Lux 6 has attracted an enthusiastic following.
However, the camera does not come with a detailed printed manual
for reference, making it hard for users to find answers to
questions about the use of the camera's many controls, menus, and
features. With the release of this guide book to the D-Lux 6, White
Knight Press has provided users with a comprehensive guide to all
operations of this sophisticated camera. Using a patient,
tutorial-like approach, the book provides guidance to beginning and
intermediate photographers about how to accomplish things with the
D-LUX 6, as well as when and why to use the camera's many controls,
menus options, and other features. The book does not assume
specialized knowledge by the reader as it explains topics such as
autofocus, manual focus, depth of field, aperture priority, shutter
priority, exposure bracketing, white balance, and ISO sensitivity.
The book also provides details about the camera's numerous options
for playback, setup, and customizing the operation of the various
buttons and other controls. The book contains approximately 400
photographs, almost all in full color, illustrating the D-Lux 6's
controls, shooting screens, and menus. The images also provide
examples of the various types of photographs that can be taken
using the many creative settings of the camera, including the
Creative Control settings, which let the photographer alter the
color processing and other aspects of images; the Scene shooting
mode, with settings that are optimized for various subjects,
including landscapes, portraits, and action shots; the Photo Style
menu option, which provides the ability to customize the appearance
of images; and the camera's strong array of features for continuous
shooting and shooting in dim lighting. In addition, the book goes
beyond the bounds of everyday photography, and introduces more
advanced topics such as infrared photography, street photography,
digiscoping, astrophotography, and High Dynamic Range (HDR)
photography. The book also includes a full discussion of the video
recording abilities of the D-Lux 6, which can shoot high-definition
(HD) video with stereo sound, and which offers manual control of
exposure and focus during movie recording. In three appendices, the
book provides information about accessories for the D-Lux 6,
including cases, external flash units, viewfinders, and filter
adapters, and includes a list of web sites and other resources for
further information. The book includes a detailed appendix with
helpful Quick Tips with insights into how to take advantage of the
camera's features in the most efficient ways possible.
