I like the work you are producing with the M10 and 50 Summilux. For some reason the work you did with the D850 seemed so sterile, for lack of a better description. The portraits with the Leica seem to have some soul. I also use the very same Leica gear as well as occasionally my D810. Been shooting Leica’s since the late 1980’s. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy looking at your site daily.
Thank you kindly, Marcus.
“Sterile” isn’t a word I have considered to describe my D850 images, but I think you’re right. The only thing I know for sure is that some emotional spark was missing while I was photographing with Nikon gear.
With respect to the M10, it kind of bothers me a little that I’ve experienced a drop in image quality (on purely technical terms) by moving to it from the D850. The D850 sensor is that good.
Marcus, on another point, you have been shooting with Leica cameras for a lot longer than me! It must be very rewarding to revisit decades-old film images.
IMO the Leica colour stands over the top of the Nikon – It’s “thicker”, fuller and far more natural. It’s closer to what you see in Medium Format, thought the greens in the M10 are a little flat and unvaried, ie. less true to natural variance that you find in film and medium Format Digital. Colour is far more important than a few more megapixels to me, and what I have observed in the reactions of the everyday viewer.

However, I’ve decided to heed my own words ( https://prosophos.com/2013/03/08/the-picture-youll-never-see/ ) from not too long ago, and forgo chasing technical perfection for now.
