Dr. G Posted April 23, 2024 Share #11 Posted April 23, 2024 Nice work. You managed to keep the sky relatively even with the polarizer on the 21. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to be careful. I lost a few because I turned the polarizer a little too far. I think if one stays aware and is cautious, CPLs can work on this lens. When photographing near the saltwater I like to use a polarizer— one, for glare/reflections and two, for protection against saltwater spray. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When photographing near the saltwater I like to use a polarizer— one, for glare/reflections and two, for protection against saltwater spray. I have no first hand experience, but I think I remember reading that a linear polarizer lessens the chance of only having one side of the sky dark when using it on wider lenses. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planetwide Posted April 25, 2024 Share #14 Posted April 25, 2024 (edited) Buy a Linear Polarizer, they work much better. Edited April 25, 2024 by Planetwide 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post lightsourcekauai Posted April 26, 2024 Popular Post Share #15 Posted April 26, 2024 One from yesterday with the SL2 and 21 APO. I put the camera with lens attached in a small Pelican case and strapped the Pelican case to the back of my motorcycle and went for a ride up to Koke'e State Park. I love how small the 21 APO SL is! I know that for M users it may be big, but compared to my previous lenses from Zeiss and Canon the 21 APO is indeed, small! Welcome, dear visitor!

lightsourcekauai Posted May 3, 2024 Share #16 Posted May 3, 2024 Really enjoying the 21 APO so far. However, I am getting a few soft images at f/2.0. Has anyone else noticed this? I will have to do a controlled shoot soon to test this, but it's something that I have noticed after coming home from the recent sessions. Anyway, here's one from earlier this week at f/7.1 with the SL2. Welcome, dear visitor!

Been using my 21 APO wide open for street photography and zero complaints...uber sharp. Even did the old brick wall test and it was extremely close in performance to my 35 APO. The extreme corners tightened up at f/2.8, but at f/2.0 there was nothing to complain about....I have found resolution to be consistent across the entire imaging plane, unlike my 16-35 SVE, which I traded in for the 21 APO (and soon to add 28 APO). Fantastic images! Edited May 3, 2024 by jplomley 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic images! Interesting. Good to hear about your results. What I think I’m seeing is that when putting focus on distant subject it is soft. Almost like shooting at infinity where everything is just kinda focused but nothing is crisp. It could totally be user error on my part which is why I need to test it on a tripod, make notes about exactly what I’m doing and examine the results. Or perhaps I just need to get to know the lens better. Glad you like the images. Mahalo! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SL21 I have us also very sharp at all apertures and distances, f2 at infinity included. Nice shot! ( but would dampen the violet/magenta cast in the foam/on the rocks in the foreground).
