Went to The Late Rembrandt exposition in the Rijksmuseum. Really crowded! And really dark rooms, so 1600 ISO.
This is "The conspiracy of Claudius Civilis" against the Romans. Never saw it in reality.
On loan from Stockholm.
The lighting could be the invention of a photographer.
SONY FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 on A7s - Additional thoughts about this lens.
After several days out on the desert with this single lens I am really impressed with the convenience of framing shots quickly over a broad focal range. Many shots would be very difficult to obtain in the rough terrain without a backpack full of lenses and a lot of hiking time. I never go on the desert alone and I almost never go with fellow shooters who would be patient. You can make the shot and keep moving. It is also easier to protect a single camera and lens from wind, dust and rain. As to the images themselves, the SONY FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 on A7s creates an amazing raw file with wonderful shadow detail. I keep forgetting that I am working with smaller images than my A7r. There is also an image quality that I can not describe. This lens likes this camera. I am reminded of Charles' comments on the A7s and 50 Nocti f/1.0 combination. Having said that, the lens is certainly not perfect. It has a very stiff zoom. Wide aperture enthusiasts need not inquire. It is a great landscape lens. If the lens performs as well on the A7r, a compact super wide like a Leica WATE along with this lens would (pardon the pun) cover the whole landscape in a small package.

I presume safety is an issue here if going alone - I face similar issues here with occasional solo outdoors shooting in NZ, but find a great sense of security in carrying a personal locator beacon - much cheaper than a new lens, and a great fall back in the unlikely event of anything going wrong.
Hi all. I am a long time lurker who took a lot of inspiration from all of you at the Alternative Gear & Lenses forum and in particular from this amazing thread. Here is my first post.
Ok, I have seen this happening often in this and other threads, but although I have been looking for it I could not find the solution. So how to get this work?
