That's right, I was referring to the Minolta/Sony version, not he ZA.Well there is 2 versions the latest is a Zeiss 50 1.4 and cost about 1400.00
My problem is the 55 fits 2 out of 3 bodies the A7r and A6000 and I'm buying the A77Ii. The other problem is I don't use a 50 mm much but its a nice 75 on the A77ii and A6000. I could just get the Sigma 50 1.4 since it is fairly cheap. I'm still short on cash to get the 16-50 2.8 DT which I need. Mental debate on this one. I like the 55 and my copy is brilliant . It's actually perfect
Eduardo,
Very nice color IR! I shoot a lot of B&W IR with Canon cams converted with deep IR filters, not color, but I find both ACR and RawTherapee can create nice B&W images. When using ACR, I open the RAW, white balance on a cloud or something appropriate (or just do it by eye to start), then convert to B&W and begin to adjust the various RAW conversion settings to taste. I then open in Photoshop and use either Nik software or OnOne software to tweak the image to give it more or less of a traditional B&W, IR "glow". I've just begun to explore using RawTherapee RAW conversion software for IRs so don't have much in the way of wisdom there other than to say at first blush it seems very good at obtaining great results right from the get go. You may want to give it a try. They just added support for the A6000 and the software is free (if not easy to use).
May I ask what lenses you're using for the IR shots? I'm very tempted to sell my recently converted Canon 5D2, buy a 2nd A6000 and convert it. I'm really loving the A6000 (my first ICL mirrorless - I'm a fullframe DSLR kinda guy but maybe not for much longer) and wouldn't mind a small IR cam that can share my E mount lenses. I'm using the 16-70 f/4 and 10-18 f/4 lenses and wonder if they'd be OK with IR.
Cheers & thanks!
Nothing in the manual, so I just did a comparison with Lens Comp set to both AUTO and OFF. Using the Zeiss Touit 12mm it is clear that when then 6000 is set to AUTO for Lens Comp then lens corrections are transferred to the raw file. For images taken with Lens Comp OFF the same in camera corrections can be obtained by turning ON the appropriate lens profile in LR.Can't find my manual for the 6000. If the lens correction settings for distortion, CA, and vignetting are set to AUTO or ON in the camera do these corrections get applied to the RAW files or not? I have lens profiles available in LR and don't want to end up making lens corrections twice if they are already done in camera.
Thanks Eduardo. The 32mm Touit Planar has the classic Zeiss contrast and biting sharpness. The 12mm distagon is also excellent.
