One of the most difficult lens to focus I've ever worked with.
Thank you for looking.

the results are great but not sure Mongo would want to go to the effort of trying to use this lens.

The real standout for Mongo is the beautiful processing. Colours are vibrant, crisp and deep. Particularly like #3

Thank you guys.

Mongo,
Nothing special in the pp.
Just some levels adjustment and, lately, I've been using some clarity (maximum eight).

Funny: of late, 8 is the max I go on clarity these days also ...

Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) is rather the common derawtisation engine, common to Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, After Effects and Bridge. The engine of Adobe Lightroom is also based on the same technology. But, to my knowledge, ACR is not a standalone application
