Thanks, Pete. Wishing you all the best for 2023 and hope you'll find some time to go out for some 'wildlife' snaps ...

Hi there Alan, when I first started using the Leica Elmarit-R 2.8/60mm Macro I found some serious vignetting.
Later it turned out that my Novoflex adapter was the culprit.
I'm now using a Kipon adapter (L/R-GFX) and now there is only a hint of vignetting that is or hardly disturbing (to me) or (more or less) easy to fix in PP.
The second image is the best proof I think: no 35mm Format Mode, no Cropping in PP, no Vignetting correction in PP.
But you'll notice a little darkening in the corners.
So to answer your question: yes this lens does cover the 44x33 sensor pretty well.
Kind regards.

I'm sure it must have been no less than f/11 ( ISO 5000 | 1/125 s ).

My last photographs for 2022. The 19thC signal box (now disused) on the eastbound platform of the Metropolitan Line at Liverpool Street Underground Station, in London.
Incidentally, from now on I am switching all Fuji postings to this thread as it seems more 'active' the the 'fun with'. So expect X-T4, X-H2S and any other Fuji cameras I might own in the future (still torn about the X-T5/X-H2) to be posted here.
Let the good (Fuji) times roll!
X-T4, XF35f2

Hopefully they leave that signal box intact and preserve it as monument.
All too often these interesting structures are demolished.
Good show, Louis. As they say: 'the more the merrier' ...
Kind regards.

One of the most annoying birds that has acclimated to the UK, is the Ring-necked Parakeet. Legend has it that the 50,000 plus birds, largely in the south-east of the country are descended from a pair that Jimmy Hendrix is reputed to have released. In reality, many were imported as pets from their tropical homelands and then either accidentally, or on purpose, released. It is incredible that they seem impervious to the increasingly variable and often hostile winters here in the UK where they thrive.
Out of interest, are they found in other areas of northern Europe?
They are an invasive species and today 10 of them were in our apple tree at one time. This displaces native birds who are unlikely to feed at the same time - let alone find food after these 'locust-like' birds have blown through the area.
Both photographs are X-H2S+XF100-400, processed from the RAW files in DxOPureRAW2, which did surprisingly poorly at removing the aberations from the twigs against the sky in the second photo. On the other hand, the 100-400 isn't all it is cracked up to be as a lens.

OCCII, Amstelveenseweg, Amsterdam NL...
| gfx-100s | gf50 |
The OCCII is a venue for alternative and independent music at Amstelveenseweg 134, in Amsterdam, Netherlands. The organization is mostly run by volunteers and has its roots in the squatting movement. The original building was squatted in 1984 and "legalized" in 1989.

I haven't been getting out much lately, but decided to try the 65:24 aspect ratio on my GFX-50R and Panasonic S1R. The widest GF lens I have is the 35-70. Here are a couple of shots from my first outing shooting in this aspect ratio with the 50R and that lens. I'm enjoying it. I don't shoot scenic landscapes very often anymore. I am more attracted to local spots around town.
