1. The first session we used the GH2 + 7-14mm lens. We underestimated the contrast (need for HDR).
2. We shot with the 5DII and the Zeiss 21mm in 3 shot HDR. Due to operator error we got high ISO images with ISO bracketing. Images were ok but grainy.
3. This time we shot with GH2 + 7-14mm (at about 10mm to match the angle of view of the 21mm Zeiss) and 5DII + 21mm Zeiss.
5DII 3 shot HDR (at 2EV steps) and GH2 7 shot HDR (1EV steps). In the end we liked the GH2 image better due to improved DOF of the lens (likely could have used higher f-stop on the Zeiss).
Processing:
- Lightroom
- Unified Color HDR Express
- Our own sharpening
- Nik Silver Efex Pro 2
Here is the 5 shot portfolio:

All sort of feedback welcome.
