Portra is one of the Fuji presets I think - cheaper way to go (if I ignore initial capital outlay). Lovely macro definition from the new lens.

Interesting that while the optics of this lens are duplicated in the DFA version, the FA rates higher in the PF database. It will also be interesting to see how it stacks up against the MacTak in your hands - faster and auto, but will it match the MacTak character that you've been able to draw out so successfully. The joys of new toys.

Hopefully they won't shoot her down! You'll need to be careful stumbling around in the dark too.

LOL I'm looking hugely forward to these trials. Top image above too.

Plenty of weird subjects to get Mavica's perspective on.

Would a pack of coyotes be anything to be wary of from your point of view? Or would they just skulk off when they realised you'd seen them? Lovely warm earthy tones in this one.

Interesting internal structures (skeleton) of the decaying cacti.
Haven't come across that video vs. stills situation before, but then Petrov tends to be out when the sun is high to get nice sea colours.

Great colours and nicely timed. That gull has a prime viewpoint; the heron couldn't care less. San Diego?

Surprised how little distortion is apparent - did you defish it? Nice clean edges against the sky and an inviting warmth everywhere.

Wonderful pop for the woman and so expressive; very strong engagement with viewer:thumbup:.
