Have to be careful with the shutter speeds when the 55/135 is mounted, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These TL zooms although great are very slow. The setting I have on my CL is auto ISO with maximum 3200 ISO. So, I don’t have to worry too much when using slow lenses. As my priority is on “A”, the camera always chooses the best speed. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked in Auto ISO settings what my minimum speed setting was (in the range between 100 and 3200, same as you). It was set to 1/60th of a second, which is way too slow, so I just set it to 1/250, we'll see how that turns out. I had a couple of shaky images recently, wasn't happy about it, but I think that should solve it, even if that means the ISO increases. I can mitigate noise in post, but not camera / lens shake.

Why do you set in shutter speed priority? I think it works better with Aperture priority , so you can control the bokeh. The camera would choose the speed that is the best.

I think it works better with Aperture priority , so you can control the bokeh. The camera would choose the speed that is the best. I have it in A mode almost permanently (especially useful with the 35 Lux of course), so that's where the Auto ISO/min shutter speed setting comes into play (unless I'm missing something). Anyway, the technique to holding the CL with a longer lens steady is different from using my S system, that is a beast which - more or less - rests in itself.

fotografr Posted March 27, 2021 Share #16 Posted March 27, 2021 I keep coming back to look at this image. To me, the beautiful use of light and shadow combined with strong color and an interesting subject make this reminiscent of the Kodachrome shots published in National Geographic a few decades ago. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you kindly. I am advanced in years, so for better or worse, I have my own Kodachrome 25/64 history, on a Leica R4 and the Nikon F3HP. Punchiness of colors was never its weak spot, especially the reds, which - sort of - bookend the image posted here (upper left, lower right). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
