I have the m version. Will be getting the z version next.
Love this shot. Excellent capture. If I would change anything it would be to get rid of the big white border. IMHO, it takes away a lot from an otherwise awesome picture.
Tired of staying home so I decided to take the 21mm and SL2-S to the gorge. Not much here but it really shows how sharp this lens is edge to edge. Shot at f4 and ISO 200.
Thanks gip. Just got the new v3 15mm Super Wide Heliar and working to get the feel for it. This is slightly cropped, but it works well Full Frame on the Sony A7 with the thin filter stack modification. And, you're right, the light was lovely which is what drew me to this.
I read some info on the M8 and discovered it has no AA filter, nor IR filter. The Kodak sensor is rather unique also, and designed specifically for that camera. Kodak no longer makes sensors, so this combination won't be repeated. I like the colors the M8 produces.
I love the tension in this photo. Excellent use of the ultra wide. I notice Sony 7R is gaining ground and if I judge from your pictures and Terry's there is an obvious quality merit.
I did! Actually, the thing is; when you hold your camera at arms length, and lock her eyes by establishing eyecontact, you avoid the look in the camera . . . :-)
Wonder what it looks like in color. I've got two versions of the CV 15; both give magenta discoloring on A7r as well as on NEX 7. I suspect the sensor of the 240 handles it better . . .
I like the composition with the blurred figure in the foreground and the two lonely men eating in the background. A simple direct approach to "a day in the life..." photo.

thanks very much for your comments!
I use the 18mm finder and have to guess the rest - and try again, if it is not ok. :))
For the sky I use the red filter emulation in Nik Silver Efex and some other tools and UPoints
I know this is an old post - but what a wonderful shot. This is one of my favorite lenses and I have many examples at the top of this thread -- but none do justice to it. This shot does. Spectacular.
They were all listening/watching a hawker in front of the Ripley's Believe It Or Not attraction on Hollywood Blvd. And then, probably, to McDonalds for a happy meal.
Wow, this is fantastic. composition and processing. Excellent job. If I were to do anything different, I would crop it a little tighter and remove from the top to bring focus to the eye much quicker. But, that's just me :) Excellent shot!
Thank you Herman, treats himself about a map of the city of Lisbon, a street directory to facilitate to the tourism a public plane of the streets.

Really, and onlooker, in this case is upside-down. But the dynamic range of the sensor allows the reproduction of tones of the clarity the darkness.
Onlooker.

(Jerseyville, IL) This girl from the Staunton IL High School track team just seemed as if she could not make up her mind about going over the hurdle. It was a sunny, but cool day as she followed all of the other runners.
The crowd is watching the finish line.
The Snyder Sports Complex in Jerseyville is where the Jersey High School team hosted the co-ed track meet.
One of the things that I could not figure out initially was the light and dark streaks on the ceiling. After standing in the same location that I shot this image from, I discovered it was because of the front windows in his shop and the light reflecting from cars as they drive by.
(Jacksonville, IL) This is an image from the 2011 West Central Illinois All Star football game that was held at Illinois College. The north and south teams are comprised of recently graduated high school seniors that are invited to participate.
For many of the players this is the last time they will play football as part of a team. As you can see the uniforms and equipment is a bit different from player to player with only the jersey being the same.
These players are watching the last few minutes of the game from the bench.
Another frame from the Virginia IL BBQ of Marty Stuart performing. The crowd shot with the buildings in the background were waiting for this show.
I decided to keep this as a color image rather than convert it to B&W. The lighting was bad and the color temperature of the lights was all different.
These musicians perform in all different kinds of venues and I decided to keep it color to give a little bit more of the flavor of the conditions they perform in as they go from one performance to another.

I was surprised this image was usable considering the lighting was so bad, the camera was hand held and the shutter speed was so long. Even looking at the display after the shot I wasn't sure.
These people are waiting for country music performer Marty Stuart to begin a performance in Virginia IL at the annual BBQ that raises funds to keep up the town square. Most of the buildings you see in the background are not occupied and the money raised goes to keeping them repaired.
I had been shooting baseball most of the day and stopped to try the BBQ. I decided to stay and shoot a few frames. Immediately before this frame was shot and before the show was to start, an intense thunderstorm passed over that almost destroyed the tents. The storm passed within minutes, the air temperature dropped and everyone returned for the show.
@jalle,
thanks,
For PP I use almost always Lightroom 3.
The B&W image stays internally in color and you can tune for example the blue from the sky down to get a black sky or in this picture tune down the skin colors to make the skin lighter
hope that helps :)
Nice shot. I almost feel like I am in the dark ages looking at this.
Were was this taken?
Thank you for your comment.
It is a panoramic view of Segovia in Spain, with the Alcazar as the most representative monument.
Thank you for your comment.
Yes, this was the APO Lanthar 50 Z (Z Mount). The Z Mount Version has a MFD of 0.45m, that is much better than the M mount version (0.7m). Try it, it‘s incredible… ;-)
I have the m version. Will be getting the z version next.
Love that lens. It is spectacular.
Love the 1.0 but I struggle to focus with the M. Much easier when used on the ZF.
I need a fountain like that on my patio.
Yes, a fountain like that would be cool… This one belongs to a castle nearby. And yes, focusing this amazing lens on the ZF is MUCH simpler.

Yeap. Far from Florida 😄
If you ever watch Game of thrones. House of Dragons, this is where some of it was filmed.

Winchester is commonly described as the ancient capital of Wessex.
This shot was taken just outside the Priory

Love the image and effort in creating this.
Wonderful rugged countryside.

with the 12mm and pointing down that much you have to keep your feet out of the picture :)
I use the 18mm finder and have to guess the rest - and try again, if it is not ok. :))
For the sky I use the red filter emulation in Nik Silver Efex and some other tools and UPoints
the only thing that bothers me: I would align it perfect vertically :)

Glad you liked it.

The "North" team did not win.
