p.1 #1 · El Yunque National Forest with the Sony/Zeiss 16-35 f/4

Last week we hiked in this beautiful rainforest, but since it was a long hike I decided to take just the Sony/Zeiss 16-35 f/4. It worked well for most of what I wanted to shoot. Here are a few of my favorites from that day

ILCE-7RM5 FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS lens 35mm f/4.0 1/1250s 100 ISO +0.3 EV

ILCE-7RM5 FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS lens 28mm f/4.0 1/100s 100 ISO +0.3 EV

ILCE-7RM5 FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS lens 35mm f/4.0 1/100s 800 ISO 0.0 EV

ILCE-7RM5 FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS lens 35mm f/11.0 1/10s 100 ISO -2.7 EV

ILCE-7RM5 FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS lens 35mm f/4.0 1/60s 100 ISO -2.7 EV

It's interesting that the latter two images required nearly -3EV of exposure compenation. I guess the waterfall was fooling the meter?

Nah, my son had borrowed the camera and he moved the exposure compensation without my noticing it. Thankfully I was able to save the shots anyway. It did make it easy to preserve the highlights in the water, but I had to adjust exposure in post about a stop to a stop and a third.
