Hey Mark,

I like this vertical shot, it has nice leading lines in it.

Did you shoot at f5.6 just so you could focus stack? Shooting at f5.6 makes no sense to me unless you have a bad copy of the 14mm Rokinon. In my testing of that lens it was sharpest at f11. But that lens resolves so well even up to f22 with such minimal diffraction that to shoot all the extra images needed for focus stacking seems like quite the waste of time.

A very nice result here, but I really think you put more effort into it then needed.

Thanks Jim. We have already debated/argued about this. As I told you on the other post, my tests differ from yours. I find the lens sharpest from f/5.6 to f/8, and the image is sharp as a tack all the way through. But thank you for pointing that out, because it made me re do the tests twice on two Rokinon 14mm lenses. (4 tests).
