Thanks Sergei.Shelby - nice.. makes me question my decision to not go longer than 150 on 645..![]()
I had a bit of utterly bad run with KEH lately. So are , apparently quite a few of my russian readers. So i am a bit reluctant at the moment..BTW... the 210/4 ULD is so ridiculously cheap on the used market that you can't go wrong just trying it out.
The latest 28mm D certainly isn't a fish eye. The monstrous manual 24mm Mamiya was very much a fish eye lens however.I think 28mm is fish eye, is it not? 35mm is widest "super wide" , which i have manual copy of. Its a nice small lens. And 77mm makes it great lens, b/c i can swap filters between RZ lenses and this one)) I.e neutral density & polarizers .
The 24 on eBay.The latest 28mm D certainly isn't a fish eye. The monstrous manual 24mm Mamiya was very much a fish eye lens however.
Had the 24mm before when I had ZD. Found it acceptable sharp on ZD and with a mild fisheye effect due to crop sensor. The 24mm fisheye is old design for originally Mamiya 645 Pro.
I had a couple of them too and concur. Not all that sharp, had significant CA, and if you de-fished, you ended up with a marginally usable effective 32mm or so...Had the 24mm before when I had ZD. Found it acceptable sharp on ZD and with a mild fisheye effect due to crop sensor. The 24mm fisheye is old design for originally Mamiya 645 Pro.
When upgraded to 28MP Aptus 65 the 24 seemed not as sharp per memory, due diffraction. Sold it and went with 28mm wich is not fisheye and very sharp and rather stellar. The 28mm is a recent design for digital.

Ed - terrific work.Something a little different. During my visit to Paradise Bay in the Antarctic Peninsula I took dozens of photographs of this same mountain from the deck of our ship within a span of about 5 minutes. The view kept changing every few seconds and it was an incredible experience watching the ice, water and clouds change so rapidly.

Thanks - yes Phocus does produce files that are free of linear distortion and vignetting - in two of the images I put vignetting back in post. I'm using a circular polarizer on it - I lightened the sky with the color mixer in the mailbox shot because the tree was merging with it.These are great 28mm shots Woody. It looks like the lens correction software is doing a great job with any WA distortion.
