Just testing the lens at Skogskyrkogården (the Woodland Cemetary) south of Stockholm. I usually don't post images here but I won't be using these for anything so decided to share. All taken handheld and fairly casually framed but shows how the lens handles this kind of thing. May supply hi-res and/or raw later but google drive was such a hassle so will see. The files have been developed in Rawtherapee using their "auto matched" colour profile and corrected using a lensfun profile I've created that so far corrects for distortion and tca. The lateral CA of this lens is quite strong but also cleans up quite well in post. Two of the images are testing how I might use the out of focus behaviour of this lens for my type of work.

The buildings seen here was designed by Gunnar Asplund. The landscaping was primarily by Sigurd Lewerentz who also designed a chapel on the site.

Yesterday I did some street and architecture shots. In some images the lens' distortion is clearly visible. My example shows a in Capture One Pro corrected image using distortion correction set to 25. Best visible in short gif-demo, gif file created with GIMP.



Distortion correction recommended for images showing straight lines.

Black & White Version of an architectural panorama.


K-1 | FF | Landscape Orientation | DFA21Ltd. | 3 rows x 3 columns | 4:3 crop

Stitched in Capture One Pro 22, Spherical Projection. Perspective Projection didn't work because it exceeded maximum size allowed in C1Pro 22. In this case I didn't distortion correct the single images.

The D FA 21mm f2.4 Limited is quite simply a pleasure to use and allows you to see a different view of the world. The woodland shots were in quite bright and contrasty conditions but when coupled with the DR capabilities of the K1 MkII this pairing allows shadows detail to be brought out and highlights supressed.

One final one from the previous outing (took a bit more manipulation to get it looking okay)!

(Interesting: I'm having a lot of trouble getting the tone colour looking the same when posted here as in my photo editor on the same monitor. It's usually not an issue.)
