I gotta get my S5 Pro out and about more often! This thread might get archived.

I think my S5 might be collecting dust a while longer while I test out my A7.

With A7 being a new idol, the thread will surely be archived very soon...
Here is one of the most recent - January in Izu Peninsula, Japan

^ Nice Avocado! This morning I pulled out my S5 Pro for the first time in ages. It's now the only digital camera I have any interest in. I slapped on my new 20mm F/2.8 AIS lens and it makes a nice small combo. Easy to focus too. I'll have to take that out for a spin sometime soon.

I gotta bring my S5 Pro to life again. It's been sitting idle too long.

Even tough I am not using my S5 since I got the D800 I have to say its skin tones fear no competition and it still amazes me how it handles highlights, an amazing camera, such a pity Fuji didn't develop a newer S-CCD to fit into their own bodies.

Yep it is pity..
I can imagine what this tech could do with 36 mpix FF.
Or 24 mpix APS-C.. doesnt matter much.

It preserves something of its fingerprint even after bit of processing..

Old hazy Zeiss 50/1.4 C/Y around f4 or f5.6.
Probably a good lens, just needs CLA and even after year of owning it I still didnt find time to do it.. or forced myself to send it to Zeiss.

Heh, trust me, back element is pretty hazy. Visible a lot when shooting against sunlight/bright sources and when its f1.4-f2.8. I checked it even looking thru with LED flashlight. Stopped down and without much light its okay, just needs a lot of contrast bump. I pretty much never post un-processed pics, and all my pics have a lot of contrast, tonal contrast, micro contrast tweaks with various ways of sharpening.
Which is why I appreciate S5 Pro files in their 14-bit form, cause when shot right (which is slightly over-exposed) they are very durable in post-processing. My Sony A35 files after same treatment simply fall apart into noise, blotchiness and banding. Old KM-7D files are suprisingly much more durable then A35 too.. but that 12-bit limit is visible sometimes.
Shame there is very few cameras with such dense files as properly shot pics from S5 Pro.. Mostly its MFDBs or high lvl 14-bit pieces and only few there too..
