Fantastic resolution, George. The S1RM2 is clearly working out well for you!

Thank you! That Sigma does quite well if you stop it down to F8, although it does fine wide-open as well.

And yes, the S1RII is truly an amazing camera. I think these new S1s are going to bring in a whole bunch of new shooters.

Thank you,, John, I like your serie about Amsterdam. The use of LUTs is really convenient. I did not know the Moco Museum. I understand it is about Modern and Contemporary art, right? Next time in Amsterdam I will visit it for sure (I know the Rijks, Stedelij, Van Gogh, Rembrandt Huis and the Cobra Museum in Amstelveen, but I did not know about the Moco, thank you!!).

So @xaviergut do you also like bananas taped to a wall kind of art? As a kid my parents often bought Museum Cards, so I’ve been to lot of museums as well . I like the old masters, not the banana tapers.
