btw, I just posted a comparison of the Sony FE 2/28 agaoinst the Zeiss Distagon 2.8/28 on my blog. The results aren't unexpected but it might be interesting for some of you anyway.
Super nice 2nd Tokina shot Phillip, plenty 3D there for me. I'll head over to your blog now to see what I can make out of the FE28/2 bokeh at various distances :- )
Here's a more challenging test of the HDR option in LR6 (desktop) in a setting where manual adjustment using brushes or gradient filters isn't practical. Its a combination of three images, spaced 1 stop apart. I was particularly impressed with its ability to handle the moving water, where I was able to very easily mask out the multiple images. I had tried processing this using a single image, and got nowhere near this, particularly in the shadow detail along the far bank and in the sun-lit foliage. Only downside is that the raw HDR image is enormous - 154 Megs and it takes a while to load or process.
The panorama option is also really effective - much more effective than dropping out to jpg, exporting, stitching, and re-importing.

Made me look . Thanks!
Here is another image from Iceland..... again . This is from Jökulsárlón, the famous glacier beach. The slight burst of the low setting sun lasted maybe for 3-4 minutes and the sky turned grey again. Oh, well.
