I just added a few of these BTS Shots to my Dropbox, I could cry every time I see the results here in the forum. I don't mind my images being downscaled but they are just not sharp at all, anyway: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1cyvmdwjl3iodxb/AADO4nhV5qdvEnLvFijC33FCa?dl=0.

I love the colors and tonality of this image.

Do you use a kind of software plug-in or filter? If so, which?

If not, then how did you get this result? ... if I may ask... 🙂

Hi Ben, I like your image styles. For the Classic Presets, which film simulation do you typically use. Do you pay attention when taking the photo or in post processing to lighten it up and do the contrary of dehaze (haze) , lower contrast etc to get the film look? Thanks.

I would also be curious to learn more. Those colors look amazingly natural. Very nice indeed.

Oh sorry! Have missed your post! Thank you very much for your kind words! I am using mainly Capture One with some official styles. These styles form the basic look of my photographs and then I'm trying to finetune a bit.

I tended to use the classic presets from Andre Duhme (https://theclassicpresets.com/) but currently I am mainly using Capture One with some official styles as mentioned above. What I am using as a starting point on a regular basis is to directly select Base Characteristics -> Curve: Linear Response. This kind of removes some of the harsh contrast of modern lenses - at least a bit and I like that. Most of the images referenced are edited with the Latitude - Sunbound Styles, e.g. SB-01 - Serengeti. Then I usually add some minor colour / curve adjustments, maybe vignetting, bit of grain. That's my approach :)

Cheers!

Thanks for your answer. Classic Presets are cool and so are the RNI styles. I made the same experience with the linear curves. It feels more natural. Somehow modern lenses look great and at the same time it can be too clinical also for my taste. Will take a look at the Sunbound Styles. Sound interesting and your images look great.

The 28 Summilux creates such beautiful results. 

A question for anyone who owns both the 28mm and 35mm Summilux:  Is the rendering of the 35 close to that of the 28, or is it significantly different?

They're different.  The 35mm fle is very crisp and transparent.  The 28mm summilux is warmer and has a bit more subtle contrast.

So I'm going to want one of each, for different uses.

My wife will be overjoyed to hear the good news. 😁

No offense, but they are. They're probably special to you because of the special person in the photo, and that's great. But in terms of rendering, they look dull, transparent, and boring to me.

but I have always found 28mm the most boring focal length for full frame

I can understand that, considering that, from what I can see, most of your photography is about portraiture. At least based on what you post on here. 

I used to dislike 28mm a lot. It's only when I got into street photography that I understood the potential of it for environmental portraiture. That being said, I still prefer the 35mm focal length.

Anthropomorphism. It’s the photographer’s responsibility to make non-boring pics.

Sure. But his responsibility is easier to bear with an interesting lens! The 35 FLE renders like a Sony lens. Other very credible member of this forum have backed me up on this, Jeff, if you remember...
