Hello Flexers,Here are a couple of pictures taken this morning on the beach in Hong Kong with the Elmarit 19mm R on the Nikon D700.
We have feral cows on South Lantau - nobody owns them and they just wander around eating gardens and grass and fouling the roads.
Here is one near the beach where we walk for exercise. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/R+lenses+on+Nikon+D700/FeralCow19EFilterw.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/btke4aThe (professional) photographer from which I bought the 19mm Elmarit R had a UV filter on the lens and it causes vignetting.
Please see: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/R+lenses+on+Nikon+D700/19ECheungShaFilterw.jpg.html http://tinyurl.com/ccsjygWith the filter off the vignetting is less and can be easily corrected in photoshop. For some reason (local busy broadband - it is the Chinese New Year holiday - or the Conficker Worm on the net) I couldn't upload the two photos - without filter and corrected. Will try again later.
