Re: Flash(es) recommendation

So I am looking for at least a couple of flashes. I am considering the Godox T350S + X1T trigger, but I am not sure those will have enough power for high magnification work. Any suggestions are welcome. Discussion has driven away from the original subject. I am interested too! I actually shoot with...

Focus Braketing Plugin in Capture One? Who will do it?

Hello, For my professional work in studio I shoot a lot of objects in size of a can. Often I will make some 10 pictures focus braketing using C1. Therefore I use the focus controls in C1-liveview: I trigger the camera, change focus, trigger camera etc. Since C1 is now open to thirdpart plugins, I re...

The Lomo 3.7x has pretty good coverage, with or without tube lens
My copy is poor on FF on edges and worse on corners. Hafe not tested with TL, since I have to find a 100mm TL first (on 100mm 2.8 Canon hard vignetting)

It seems the only possible solution is the Fuji WI-FI app for Android or iOS, and who know how well that works. And I really don't like the idea of needing a tablet or phone on my workbench just for that purpose.. And what about capture one? THere is a free version for fuji thetering. I use the pro...

What about a Sigma Apo 180mm 2.8 Macro?
I have it, but I never used it for macro. It is a very sharp lens, apo correcction is good. Very very heavy (a lot of glass).
I bought it for portaits with shallow dof. Bokeh is a bit too nerveous, not as soft as the Canon 70-200mm 2.8.

What I see is what I hoped to see, ie that the Rayfact and 105IXL are very similar at f4. This gives me some additional confidence in both results, as it seems they are both diffraction-limited. The RayFact is clearly better at f2.4, so it appears I have made a wise purchase with this lens. T.4he L...
