The XL image is displayed in the module.
If you want to change the modal entirely you can look at this post: www.joomlaworks.net/forum/k2-en/42008-implementing-new-responsive-lightbox-for-k2-item-images

hallo kriko!

thank you for your response and the helpful post.

i read it carefully but as i can understand it will not change the image to the natural size. the href to the imageXLarge will remain i think

thank you

Yes, it will change the size but you can control the lightbox itself.
The original image is strored in the /src instead of the /cache folder so it is possible with some PHP ( str_replace php.net/str_replace ) to get the URL of the original image. Just make sure to drop the _XL from the filename as well.

The item->image will produce the image size which is defined in K2's settings.

You need to use str_replace on this variable to replace the _L or _XL of the filename and swap /cache with /src.

The link I sent you covers this procedure.

hallo krikor!

i had confused but i figured it out!

i should first swap from cache to scr, then assing it to another variable to replace the "XL" to ""

<?php $modalimage = $this->item->imageXLarge; ?>
          <?php $modalimage = str_replace("cache","src",$this->item->imageXLarge); ?>
          <?php $modalimagetrue= $modalimage; ?>
          <?php $modalimagetrue = str_replace("_XL","",$modalimage); ?>

and then i assign to the href the last value

thank you very much krikor for the useful inf! :D :D
