Charles, note tree cover in #2 suffers defocus color fringing. Thanks to owners posting earlier in this thread, I was made aware of this weakness in the E and purchased anyway. Fringing conditions are pretty narrow: wider apertures, slight degree of defocus, high contrast area. I mean to test whether it clears at f/2.
Thanks for the heads up Rico I uploaded the wrong shot. Quick fix in Lr and should be fine now. Just about any fast lens wide open with extreme back lighting and fine branches and leaves will exhibit some CA.

Some shots first day in Spain, Pontevedra
Alright, now I'm jealous: Charles running loose in Spain with the 28E. Great color palette. I look forward to being there virtually via this thread. Spain is my top choice for next travel destination.
Charles is in his element—maybe he'll return to Australia, or maybe he won't! Those crowd scenes could not be more photogenic. I don't usually look at EXIF but it's fascinating to see your broad range of exposure choice.

Thank you Rico Yes Spain and this part of Europe is a photographer's paradise. It is still summer and the sun does not set until very late and all day the lighting is soft as contrast to Australia where the lighting is so harsh. There are parties here where people drink but they are so mild nothing in excess and they love food and music. Yes definitely my style of living

Love your photos Charles. Reminds me of how much fun I had with my D700 + 35mm in Spain.
Thank you very much Dave Just a wonderful place particularly since my father lives in Pontevedra Great excuse to visit...
The 28mm is very different from the 35mm and 24mm. I love it as expected for street shots as the best technique so far is AF-C and 3D focusing. You find your subject and recompose your image and the exposure and point of focus remains.
