It truly is other-worldly
As you probably know it is one of my favorite places
My pleasure
Thanks for the kind words
Great Barry:thumbup: Love the look of the 135mm lens. Mine arrives this morning and fingers crossed for perfect symmetry. I'll know very quickly.
Cheers.....

Just took my new Tamron 24mm f2.8 out for a quick spin
It is very small and light (which I love)
The first photo is at f11 and the 2nd at 2.8
It appears to be sharp throughout the frame w a nice smooth bokeh
If you want larger views just click on either image
I will probably be taking it out for more extensive testing later today and will post if I do
My initial impression it that it's a winner especially at it's price point
By the way this is mostly straight out of the camera with minimal sharpening applied

Thank you Victor....Hope all goes well with the arrival of your 135mm lens this morning (+ that you end up with a well corrected example
).I assume that you went with the GM rather than the ART in the end....either way both are great lenses...I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine
Look forward to seeing your images later on.
Cheers Barry

Yes, Barry..... I did order the GM. I've just checked the corners at f1.8 with my usual decentering test and they are extremely sharp through the EVF. This is extremely encouraging and I expect the lens to perform flawlessly with my standard test shots. This may have to wait until the weather clears up a little.Thank you Victor....Hope all goes well with the arrival of your 135mm lens this morning (+ that you end up with a well corrected example

Although I haven't mentioned it in the past my real enthusiasm for this camera is for use on my Actus. Given the image circles of my Digitar lenses and the Rody 90 I can easily shift 20mm and still remain inside the very sweet spot of those lenses given the size of the sensor. I can make a 16X9 image with the camera in portrait position which consists of 5 very quick shots (20mm L&R with each shot at 10mm steps) and this makes a 160MP+ image. I have lots of room for rise giving me nice straight lines. Granted I don't have the ability to isolate with those lenses like I can with the Sigma/Sony lenses but they aren’t designed for that. This is all very exciting as I can travel with the Actus and maybe three lenses and the Sony with maybe three lenses and have the best of all worlds. I've been waiting a long time for this. My Phase 4150 is already starting to get lonely...
Will post back when further test shots are taken....
Cheers....

Grandkids, retirement, selling a house and buying another - all getting the way of visiting and posting - back in a regular way soon, I hope.
In the meantime, Ireland.

I’m pretty sure the inhabitants in Ireland from -4000 to -1000 bc saw rocks differently than we do - they moved each one, sometimes, hundred of miles to build their rings and dolmens.
They missed this one - the sleeping rabbit in the Burren:

Hi Barry,
I had a day trip to Weymouth a few months ago but the weather was not conducive to building sandcastles so I hopped on the No 1 bus and did
a non-stop circular tour of the Isle of Portland (not as far as the lighthouse tho') and grabbed this quick shot on the way back to Weymouth
of Chesil Beach which stretches for 18 miles into the sea mist.
I processed it to look like an old handed-tinted pic.
I found Portland a rather strange place for some reason, perhaps the gloomy weather, and may return next year to have a further look.
