…and grass, foliage, etc. At times a reason for me.
Agreed, vignetting could likely be an issue with a 95mm polarizer.
Appreciate seeing these samples all the same.

I would hesitate to use a polarizer on a lens this wide,but if you do it takes 95mm filters.. I would like the option of N.D filter,I am considering the 95mm True Match…[Read more]

Many thanks.

Here is a backlit shot.. straight into the sun,, there is streaking but I find this happens with CCD's.. nevertheless the lens handles the scene well,easily dealing with the dark branches against the bright background with hardly a trace of C.A..

Alex I will post a few DNG's asap.. it's about the same size as the 70mm but heavier,the image seems to have minimal distortion and it's a great F.O.V for landscapes and interior's..

Marc, I did not know that Profoto made an AIR receiver unit. I see that B&H has a transceiver for Hensel units…but nothing specifically for Broncolor. I will have to look into this further but if they work like Pocket Wizards it should do the trick. Thanks for the heads-up.

Can confirm CS 1/1000th sync with Profoto AIR … no vignetting, clean corners.
Most other radio transmitters top out at 1/500th sync with leaf-shutter lenses. The extra stop with an AIR radio does help in overcoming the sun or white skies, and 1/1000th shutter even helps when shooting a longer hand-held lens with fill flash at wider aperture…[Read more]

David K replied to the topic Radio triggers capable of syncing at 1/1000 s in the forum S Lenses 13 years, 4 months ago
I recently looked into the same issue and was told that only the Profoto Air Sync radio trigger will do the trick. Most radio triggers send a signal that needs to be coded, sent and uncoded. The Air Sync apparently sends a constant signal which is interrupted to trigger the flash. I shoot Broncolor so this isn't a viable solution for me. If I…[Read more]

I also love Mac because it's in sync with my iPhone and iPad. They are work together nicely and are completely compatible. So if you have — or planning to get — iPhone or Pad then it's another reason to get Mac.
