Awesome pano Christopher. The balance is too much! :thumbs:Some more or less recent stuff. (My server this time)
P45 / Cambo WRS - P65 / Linhof Techno - P45 / P1 645AF
Works fine on the web for me. I'll bet the prints are fantastic.Trying to capture the grandeur of the Grand Canyon...a 8 panel stitch...reduced to 1920 pixels wide...the original image, after processing is about 43000 pixels wide.
I guess images like these do not really work on the web.

P.chong and Christopher;; stunning panoramas ,, cheers! guys :salute:
Unfortunately this is the second image in the last week that I've seen ruined by diffraction rings.

Vivek, I'm merely an image maker and bow to your greater knowledge.Those annular rings in the OOF background highlights are NOT caused by diffraction (perhaps xpixel can confirm the aperture used and the ~magnification involved to confirm that there is no diffraction).
Those rings come from the moulded aspherical surfaces in the lens' elements.

The picture was made in at almost night with 70mm, ISO160, aperture 2.5, 1/60, SF58 flash...Those annular rings in the OOF background highlights are NOT caused by diffraction (perhaps xpixel can confirm the aperture used and the ~magnification involved to confirm that there is no diffraction).
Thanks for the details. That appears to indicate the lens is nearly diffraction limited even at f/2.5 (ie., as good as it can get).The picture was made in at almost night with 70mm, ISO160, aperture 2.5, 1/60, SF58 flash...
I like to see about the same kind of photo made with a hasselblad, phase or whatever... if there is also such a sharpness and color ... till now i think never seen here
