Here is an old image from 2015.

To check the sharpness of my lens I took a shot of a wood panel.

Quoting from this article.

Leica 28mm–90mm f/2.8–4.5 ASPH Vario-Elmarit-R Lens Review - AphotoVID

The Leica Vario-Elmarit-R 28-90mm f2.8-4.5 ASPH is a great lens. Arguably one of the best medium zooms ever made. It is fairly light considering its range, and yields beautiful images. We mounted it on a Leica M9, M240, and a Leica SL for this test. The lens went into production in 2004...

CaptureOne broken for A1.

An interesting discussion.
My take away, Capture One needs to fix its software.

Wow, your 90/2.8 Macro is good on corners, too! What was your Aperture-number, though, if I may ask, was it wide open?

Thanks, much appreciated.

Aha! Thanks for the info. So, even 90/2.8 Macro works for the Landscapes! That's good to know. I guess at f11, just about a borderline to the lens diffraction. On Fredmiranda.com, there has been a pretty deep discussion about Sony 90/2.8 macro vs. Voigtlander 110/2.5 Lanthar APO-Macro as a pinch lens for the landscapes. I'd like to see more of your mundane yet pleasant shots in the days to come as you have been doing so in the past
