Schneider Kreuznach LS 240mm f/4.5 Example: Alpenglow On Mt Whitney (Phase One IQ4)
I have a ton of images shot the past two days, an I have only glanced at a few of them. I don’t know if this is the best morning shot from yesterday, but it shows what alpenglow looks like as the sun hits the Mt Whitney Spires from the Alabama Hills.
Schneider Kreuznach LS 240mm f/4.5 Examples: Alabama Hills and Mt Whitney Area (Phase One IQ4)
Includes images up to full 151MP camera resolution (14204 X 10652) from f/2.8 through f/11. Includes both a color version and a black and white rendition.
I have many more examples, but little time to organize, assess and process because I am focusing all my attention on making images, what with only 3 days remaining before the IQ4 has to go back. It feels disappointing, because I have finally figured out how to work around the oddities and bugs of the IQ4, and it is just so exciting to see the images that it delivers.
Mt Whitney is seen near far right in the far distance.
