Working with DNG raw data
If you have selected the standardized and future-proof DNG (Digital Nega-
tive) format, you require highly specialized software to convert the saved
raw data into optimum quality, for example the professional Adobe® Photo-
shop® Lightroom® raw data converter. It provides optimum quality algo-
rithms for digital color processing, allowing pictures that simultaneously
have low picture noise and exceptional resolution.
During editing, you have the option of adjusting parameters such as white
balance, noise reduction, gradation, sharpness etc. to achieve an optimum
image quality.
Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom® is available as a free download when you
register your LEICA X1 on the Leica Camera AG homepage. Further details
can be found in the registration card enclosed in the camera packaging.
Installing Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®
To start the installation, your computer must have an active Internet con-
nection (i.e. it must be online). You also need a valid e-mail address.
Have the required software license code ready – you will receive it in the
reply mail from Leica after you have chosen to download the software.
Should you need any support concerning Adobe® Photoshop® Lightroom®:
You will find a support form on the Leica Camera AG homepage in the
owners area where you registered your camera and downloaded the soft-
ware.
System requirements
Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 2 or later Windows® versions;
Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later
On some Windows versions, it is possible that the operating system will
issue a warning about a missing Windows signature. Ignore this message
and continue with the installation.
Installing firmware updates
Leica is constantly working on developing and optimizing its products. As
digital cameras have many functions that are controlled electronically, some
of these improvements and enhancements to the functions can be installed
on the camera at a later date.
To do this, Leica provides firmware updates at irregular intervals, which
you can easily download from our homepage.
When you have registered your camera, Leica will inform you of any new
updates.
