Check out my final review on the GF20-35mm / f4 here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d591ypZrf5O9Z6Q.html

What you have to have for the white angle lens is a central focus point in other words. When you're shooting wide, you need to stand almost straight in front of your subject and then let everything fan out left and right from that central point. It's a little bit hard to explain, but I'm a landscape shooter and I do use white angle lenses from time to time and usually there is some distortion one of the things that you can do is change it from the super wide to about 20 mm and you will get way less distortion so that's something to keep in mind but if you're standing in the middle of a scene and you want equal parts of the scene in focus, you need to stand central to that spot and everything equally fan left and right and you will get less - sometimes none at all

I am obsessed with your modular wall shelf!

Thanks as always for your support Dylan!!! Hope you enjoy this one.

Mike, I shoot professionally with all the big bad Sony bodies, a7R5, a1, etc.. how is your experience with the dynamic range on the medium format Sony sensor in the GFX compared to the full frame Sony sensors? I’m a sensor snob and have been curious about picking up a GFX 100s more for my hobby/boutique camera. I know with the larger sensor I’ll have better low light but I’m trying to decide if it’ll fit my shooting style and flow. Thanks

I only have a little experience with editing Sony raws. In my LIGHT experience… the dynamic range on a GFX will naturally be better. At least 25% on the lower end. The GFX raws are better, I think it just comes down to do you need AF? If so, Sony is your camera. Also, it was shocking to me to edit Sony files in LR and discover they really have no nice camera matching profiles. Fuji has some awesome ones that can serve as a nice base for your edits. Keep in mind if you want a GFX for a hobby/walk around camera, its hugeeeeee. Hope this helps.

@@MikeBanom thank you!

When you say hdr, do you mean 3 or more bracketed shots merged in lightroom? There isn’t an hdr mode on the gfx.

Hey Jason! Yep, that's correct.HDR is basically multiple exposures of the same shot, so you would need to use a tripod. And you can merge them in LR, photoshop, etc. It will yield a hyper realistic image depending on how you edit it. More detail in the whites, blacks , colors, etc.

I used to get that on the 23, it's actually not flaring it is because there is a light hitting the back of your filter, unless you are using a screw on?all you have to do is shield the back of the filter especially on the edges....not much of a problem, however I find the distortion to be extreme, I was on the fence but have to decided now thanks you

Very interesting! I will look into this, thank you. Distortion is def extreme vs the 23mm, but it is a smidge wider.

If you are shooting long exposure why don’t you stop down?

When doing a long exposure, I want that really nice shadow detail, properly exposed. But valid point. If I'm not doing an HDR shot, i'll give it a try. Thanks!

Which hdr program?

I do HDR in Lightroom then touch up anything in PS if needed.
