Really beautiful. I like the rendering of the lens.
Thanks Pete.
The Hasselblad H lenses get along with the S2’s sensor quite nicely.
The HC50/3.5-II, 100/2.2, and 150/3.2N are a particularly nice set of lenses to use with the Leica … dual shutter capable, good handling size for the S2, and all use the same 77mm filter size.

Hi Marc,
Great to see your take with the 100. I am wondering if you can share your processing with the H-lenses. I am not quite getting the colors/look with mine so need to learn from you. Thank you in advance!Arif, I just use LR and the lens profiles Leica provided for the HC lenses.
In the case of the HC100/2.2 when strong backlighting is present (like it was in the Bride and flower-girls photo) I may have to use a bit more manual purple fringing correction. This shows up more frequently with the S2 than with my H4D/60.
Mostly process for skin-tones by eye. The S2 tends toward more magenta skin so I frequently use the specific color correction tools in LR to make minor adjustments until the skin looks like the above pics.
What specifically are you having problems with?

Really nice photos Marc. I gotta say, there is no way to detect the difficulties you had by looking at the photo. The exposure looks great to my eye.
Thanks Mark, RE: difficulties …
Never let them see you sweat … LOL!
What is also so gratifying about using these tools is the remarkably consistent look and feel attainable between the S2 and M9P … while I also use a Sony A900 and Zeiss optics, as well as process images from my second shooter’s Nikons or Canons, none have that synergy … that certain richness that is easy to see and hard to explain.
My hope is that the M and S functionally evolve to a point I can eliminate all the other cameras … and we are getting close. I hope the new M with CMOS maintains that image synergy.
Me likey Leica

The first shot of the bride with the kids at the railing is a stellar image. Congratulations.
