Felt good to use my Batis 18 again. It had been relegated to my shelf while I was using the 16-35 GM. I'm also glad I didn't sell it because it has just that extra bit of crispness you find in a high performing prime.
Used the SR app at 256 shots to blur the students out. Then blended in a darker frame for the highlights.
Two from the CZ 28/2.8 (CY). This one is afflicted with a little CA even at f8, I didn't bother to clean it up for here. The small cost to extra effort in post is heavily outweighed by the sure hold this versatile lens has on so many subjects. It's typical of why we more experienced folks enjoy and respect the 28mm focal length. I call it the normal wide angle FL. It surprised me at the definition and hue separation in this unusually rich forest shot under the ultra bright 'light box in the sky' that is the Indian monsoon (hence the CA). [On a7r]
