I have to echo what Lloyd said, it's a beautiful image, and my favorite one of the series (so far). I like the way her left foot points in. It gives the photo a more casual feel.Another from the 35 Lux wide open...
I printed this one today and the print is sooooooo nice. Love the M8 files...
Hmm well, the zeiss is cheap as chips (1/3 price of the 35, and 1/5 price of the 24) it's probably sharper than either of them too (perhaps it's not quite as subtle however).It's difficult to see what you're doing with the 35 lux, what Jaap is doing with the 24 lux, and what Jono is doing with the Zeiss 25, and not want to buy more lenses. Must resist urge to buy another lens (must... pay... off... home... repair... bills... instead...).
Cheap is good (or at least cheap in relative terms). Are you able to use the 24mm framelines in the built-in viewfinder?Hmm well, the zeiss is cheap as chips (1/3 price of the 35, and 1/5 price of the 24) it's probably sharper than either of them too (perhaps it's not quite as subtle however).
Absolutely, and it's coded as a 24mm elmarit as well (John Milich did the coding).Cheap is good (or at least cheap in relative terms). Are you able to use the 24mm framelines in the built-in viewfinder?
Beautiful image, Jono. Clear and clean. Never would have suspected HDR.HI There

Nothing wrong with the lens or the photograph (both lovely), but what have you done to your son that he'll pose? . .. I have three of the buggers, and trying to take a photograph of them is more difficult than getting a saddle on the horse!Just got a Zeiss 50 Sonnar (traded in my 50 Lux for the 90 Cron and this sonnar) so I tortured my son with the 1st test shot...
Taken at 1.5

Thanks, Lloyd. The processing seems to enhance the three-dimensional quality of the image, especially with the 18mm shots that have a full-frame depth of field.Very nice, David. Almost looks HDR.
David, they're all great, grand job with the conversions . . . have you tried silver efex-pro for the black and white . . it's gloriously . . . erm . . . glorious!Thanks, Lloyd.

I have tried it, though I haven't progressed much beyond the defaults. I should dig into it deeper.David, they're all great, grand job with the conversions . . . have you tried silver efex-pro for the black and white . . it's gloriously . . . erm . . . glorious!
Hi DavidI have tried it, though I haven't progressed much beyond the defaults. I should dig into it deeper.
Here's one where I used the new processing, and then ran it through Silver Efex Pro for good measure.
