A bit too contrasty for my taste. Detail from the center of the flower is lost. I think that in this circumstance, the Leica 28 Elmarit v.2 would acquit itself better. Just my personal opinion, having shot the Nikkor 28/2, ZF 2/28 and Leica 28 Elmarit for comparisons like this. The decreased contrast and increased resolving power of the Leica shines in lighting like that seen above.
I didn\'t really put attention on processing here. I could have easily processed it to show more detail in the centre of the flower, but then the sky would have been blown out. I used the Camera Standard profile in LR3 and this often causes posterization in the shadows, but the Adobe Standard profile does other unwanted things.
Anyway, this was merely an example of the edge outlining/contours that I was discussing with Edward. The Leica might not show that effect so strongly.
