Phase One IQ4 + Schneider Kreuznach LS 35mm f/3.5 Examples: Northern Death Valley Area

I am struck by how the Phase One IQ4 consistently delivers image better than any camera I have used before.

These examples in the Death Valley area. These images use focus stacking, assembled using Zerene Stacker.

In diglloyd Medium Format:

Schneider Kreuznach LS 35mm f/3.5 Examples: Northern Death Valley Area

Includes images up to full 151MP camera resolution (14204 X 10652).

Separately, I show why the 35mm f/3.5 should be strongly preferred over the Schneider Kreuznach LS 40-80mm f/4.5-5.6 zoom:
