Hesitated to post this image mainly(!) for technical reasons; bothresome, unpolished lower left hand corner colouration due to PS 'Content Awarnes' removal of half a dozen of floating birdies captured at 1/4s with B+W Kaesemann CPL (someone would notice it sooner then later!)
Note to those who already rejected the idea of shooting with 'flowed' Sony A7/x cameras; lower left hand corner exibits Sony RAW compression artifacts and birds were in motion due to loud shutter release!

A7+CV12/5.6This is a great shot! Congratulations!!
Do you need to put in a lot of post-production work with the CV12?
Thanks. Marc
Thanks Marc.
Not too much PP work with the CV12 once its established.
In LR, I keep a copy of an image that I adjusted for the vignette and light magenta cast on the corners.
The adjustments were made using the adjustment brushes.
So when I have a CV12 image that I need to adjust, I just go to this image, then click back to the new image I want to adjust and press "Previous"
That will copy all the adjustments onto the new image.
I do this because I dislike going back and forth and needing to remember with image was shot with the CV12 if I use the Adobe Flat Field plugin.
Plus it generates many files and it confuses me.
Alternatively, the most 'loss less' way I have found would be to use a +1.7ev (or +2) image, open both 0ev and +1.7ev images in PS and use a mask created with the 0ev for the +1.7ev layer.

This thread just keeps getting better. A pleasure to catch up. Here are a few animal shots at the Arizona Sonoran Desert Museum, not really something in my comfort zone. I have to admire the people who do this professionally. Not many keepers for me. A7r with Zeiss Contax 80-200

Thank you all so much again for the lovely comments and the 'Likes' for these two shots ! Your enthusiasm for this Cormorant Fishermen series has re-invigorated me (I don't enjoy the processing part that much ( *embarrassed to say* ) and I was up until 04.30 last night processing more in the series (unfortunately no more as yet taken with the A7).

I think this original shot is the best, all the other ones are nice, but this one is great because it is so simple. Sometimes everything just happens in a shot and nothing needs to be invented. Just frame that one and relax with editing of the others in the same series

Great shots Helena, which lens do you prefer?
Thank you! As you may know I have three lenses for A7; C/Y 18/4, 28/2.8 and 85/2.8. The 85mm is no doubt best, but the 28mm is my favorite, mostly because of focal length. The 18mm is very sharp over most of the frame and has nice rendering, but also field curvature, so I have to be careful with placing focus or else there are unexpected un-sharp areas. It will probably get easier/better with more practice.

Yes I was aware (envious!) of your C/Y collection. They're lenses I am thinking about, too. The 28mm does indeed get good reviews, but I am wondering if something around 24mm would be more useful to me... I am not sure.
Thanks for your feedback, at any rate!

I took a vertical shot in this room last time I was there with very little added light, I think I prefer this version with painted walls, floor and the girder at the top
