Are the Tamron or Laowa cropped at all? The Laowa I assume is the Zero D 15? It’s impressive!
Thank you. No cropping on the Tamron, it covers the sensor pretty well, there is a bit of softness that never corrects at the very corners but it's not an issue IMO. For the Laowa I did a crop vertically top and bottom, not due to an IQ issue but for the intended composition.

All of these lenses seem to do very well, but I'm especially impressed with the Tamron. Is this on the Fringer adapter? If so, how is autofocus with this combination?

That's right, I'm using the Fringer. AF seems fine for landscape and posed portraits. I don't think it's enough for something fast moving but I think that's also a camera factor (GFX 100S II) and true for many lenses. One additional benefit of the lens is that it focuses REALLY close, will have some examples of that coming up once I edit them.

A very nice image and I love seeing lenses that get pigeon-holed as a one-trick pony (this one known to be a portrait lens) doing more than one trick.

Thanks Jon. I'm still learning my way around it, to be honest. I'm always taken aback at how much contrast must be added back in post with it, although I suppose that's what you want for a primarily portrait lens.
