The LEICA DIGITAL-MODUL-R includes a CD-ROM (J).

duce with the Digital-Modul-R.
System Requirements
Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional or Home Edition

2. Open a window for the drive and start the installa-
tion by double clicking and follow the instructions in
the installation program.
On Windows® computers:
1. Insert the CD in your CD or DVD drive.
2. The installation program then starts automatically.
Follow the instructions. If the installation does not
start automatically, open Windows® Explorer and
click on your CD or DVD drive. In the right-hand
Windows® Explorer window you will find the file
“Setup.exe”. Run this file and follow the instructions
in the installation program.

Working with raw data
If you have selected the DNG picture format (
RAW
),
you have the option of influencing individual parame-
ters or image properties yourself. To do this, you need
an image editing program that includes the option of
opening raw data files in the standardized DNG format,
for example the Adobe® Photoshop® Elements® 3 soft-
ware supplied, or Adobe® Photoshop® CS with the
Camera-RAW plugin from version 2.3, or FlexColor
(available for download from the Leica homepage
www.leica-camera.com/digitalekameras/digitalmodul/
downloads/index.e html
During editing, you have the option of adjusting param-
eters such as white balance, tone values, gradation,
sharpness etc. to achieve an optimum image quality.
You have the option of importing DNG files from a data
carrier using the Digital-Modul-R Content window. In
this case, the file is then automatically saved in the
Imacon “FFF” file format. This format retains the origi-
nal raw data in the file. All editing is saved in the file
and can either be undone later or retrieved.
