Adam Bonn Posted February 24, 2023 Share #461 Posted February 24, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I spent far longer than I thought I would trying to make a profile for the 50/1 in adobe's lens profile creator last night. This app is too old to install on my mac 🙄 so I had to piss about swapping between my old win machine and my mac and hacking the exif to get the aperture values I actually used Then I decided to edit out the distortion corrections by hand directly in the resultant profile. Anyway, I THINK 🤔 I've made what I wanted... A profile that corrects only the vignette I'll test it for a bit then if it's ok I'll share it on here... I fear I've probably just made a profile that does what one can do in a second or two with the vignette slider 😅 but what the hell always nice to try new things (never made a lens profile before only camera ones) 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M Street Photographer Posted February 25, 2023 Share #465 Posted February 25, 2023 I like your profile, unless I look the wrong way, it has a little more plasticity, the mailbox is a little more in the foreground. The vignette has been corrected. However, the longer I look at the two photos, I become unsure again. I could imagine that I'm wrong and you allow yourself a joke. No, the one on the left has your profile, I'll stick with it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Bonn Posted February 25, 2023 Share #466 Posted February 25, 2023 23 minutes ago, M Street Photographer said: No, the one on the left has your profile, I'll stick with it Yup! Correct! The biggest clue I think is the top right corner All that profile should do is remove the vignette, no distortion corrections at all I'll tidy it up with a proper name (it's called something like CV50Iv3 on my computer) and add it to thread (I'm thinking to copy the CV 50 1.2 nomenclature for the name, adobe/CV seem a little inconsistent with their naming conventions) Easier to test it if more than just me has it, although I'm not sure how to change it if the consensus is that it's junk..

M Street Photographer Posted February 25, 2023 Share #467 Posted February 25, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) I noticed the vignette correction more on the left side, on those two tubes and the bottom left corner. However, I doubt my impression that it is a bit more plastic. Could of course also be due to the vignette correction. Or my brain will get a little tricked if I stop looking at the two photos.

M Street Photographer Posted February 25, 2023 Share #468 Posted February 25, 2023 It's such terrible weather here, first heavy rain, then turning to snow, now heavy snowfall, 3 C. It's not fun to go out there and if you do, you quickly lose interest after 10 minutes. It's been like this for months and sometimes even more extreme.We'll see tomorrow, maybe take pictures.

Adam Bonn Posted February 25, 2023 Share #469 Posted February 25, 2023 It’s turned colder and wetter here too, gone are the halcyon days of fake spring from two weeks ago..

M Street Photographer Posted February 25, 2023 Share #470 Posted February 25, 2023 With the small difference, our weather has been like this for 4 months. 🥶 When I lived in Munich for 6 years between 87 and 93, we also drove to the mountains in winter because of the snow, because there was hardly any snow in the lowlands. ⛷️ You already had it "warm" and sun, but here 🌞 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J S H Posted February 26, 2023 Share #471 Posted February 26, 2023 A few shots with this lens and the M11. Wide open with not much light. I would have to say that the lens shines in this type of scenario. The color of the light was really distracting, so I processed all the shots from this set as B&W. Welcome, dear visitor!

Adam Bonn Posted February 27, 2023 Share #475 Posted February 27, 2023 But that's not to complain about this lens, all lenses have some trade off and we need to remember that this is an optic with an FLE, a ground glass aspherical element, F1.0 and costs less than a 50 summicron (a lens I love and own) I haven't had too much time to play with it at night yet... but it really seems to shine in low light Welcome, dear visitor!

Top of the creamy coloured building on the right, arse end of the tower crane at the very top I'm sorry to have to disagree with Adam. When I click double on the image (black background), on my monitor ( 4k Benq) I can clearly see the focus on the front, the first left door of the fire truck, the ladder and the man on the ladder. If you're focused on the writing on the front (are you sure about that?), then it's a slight shift in the focus point, but that doesn't bother you in the slightest. As a test, I would focus on a subject twice: With a range finder, starting with the infinity setting and once with the Visoflex to see whether it is you or the lens, after that you will have security.

Compared to my Lux ASPH (at F1.4, CV at F1) They're rounder, but have more of a fringe and both exhibit signs of internal structure I love being challenged and tormented by you. 🤭 In my opinion, the lux shows more weaknesses. The circles are rounder in the VC I assume that the circles are even rounder at f1.4 of the VC. You can remove the green lines around the circles if you want. However, it may not be that easy with a slider in the software. Here it is to be tested whether they can be corrected more easily in LR or C1. Sometimes correction is possible with LR sliders where C1 fails. It could even be that the VC is a bit sharper in some places than the Lux. I also find the bokeh of the VC a bit more pleasing, softer, well it's f 1.0, it should be like that. The structures in the circles are also more pronounced in the lux. It irritates me a bit. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
