I’ve published some examples taken in the Alabama Hills and Mt Whitney area.

Voigtlander 50mm f/2 APO-Lanthar Examples: Alabama Hills

Includes single images, panoramas and focus stacked images, some up to 237 megapixels.

I am quite behind on my processing of images, but one thing I can say is that the Voigtlander 50mm f/2 APO-Lanthar is a world-class performer and would be an unbeatable value at twice the price. It is also one of my favorite lenses of all time for focus stacking.
