Pentax 645Z DA 28-45
Panoramic taken last night - cheated a little as pano's should be shot with camera in portrait orientation. Shot in landscape which makes it more prone to distortion. Came out well I think. This shot demonstrates the ability to recover shadow detail with 645Z files. I expose to the left as 645Z files are more able to recover shadow than highlight detail. In excess of 2 stops were recovered in this shot from the shadows.
The pano was created using LR6 new photo merge tool. Very good, very easy, using the autocrop.
645Z FA 33 - 55 f/22
Love the light, composition and feel.
Super to know about the pano tool.

The 645Z and 90 mm Macro. Not sure this camera and lens combo's focusing speed will keep up with him when he grows up a bit. Do any of you have recommendations for FA 645 lenses that might have a chance of tracking such a subject when they get energetic?
Aww, lovely shot and story.
Well, good question. We will see how the Z responds to the test!
I'm looking forward to them.

lol, I feel your pain.
I've used the Arctic Buttery spin brush with success on my Canon 1 D ll sensor with quite a bit of success.
