Hi!
Nice "Mandelbrot's lichen".
How do you like the ZF35 with Ds3? Is it ok @f/2 or 2.8? Have you compared it to 35 L?
Cheers,
J

Hi
I really like the zf35, though it would be nice to have auto aperture... I've not compared it to the 35L, though digilloyd has a comparison that suggests that the zeiss has an edge at wide apertures and certainly I think it's superb shooting between f2 and f4.
The lichen shot was at f5.6 and was taken precariously balanced on a slippery rock - so despite the tripod it was hard to focus (even with live view) and keep everything still - but here is a centre crop at 100% before black and white conversion (processed in LR with 50, 0.5, 50, 5 sharpening). Becuase I was struggling with not falling the corners weren't in the focus plane, but if I get chance I'll shoot something similar to give an idea of corner sharpness.

Here is a shot of my older daughter with a 100% crop. This is at f2 or 2.8 and shot at 1600iso, then pushed 1.1 stop in LR with nr at 33, 31 and sharpening 50, 1.2, 48, 55.

Hope that's of interest, and if I get chance to compare to the canon I will!
