I was amazed when I ran the above image through LR4.4. The dynamic range is very good and sharpness is there too. When I import my raw files into LR I make sure that they are all zeroed which means that the files look flat and lack contrast. Totally different to how the jpg files look...overcooked.
Most of my work is done in LR and I use Photoshop at the end to do some touches, resize and normally sharpen and add a frame. This doesn't take long as I've saved some actions to do the mundane stuff.
I'm going to out a limb here and say that the file has a film like quality to it and it's the sort of look I get from my Voigtländer lenses. I like it too and strive to find a workflow that gives me this permanently. I'm still looking by the way.
As this is going to be the last post from the V1 for the moment I have to tell you that the 6.7-13 f3.5-5.6 VR is on the way. Actually by the time you read this post it should have arrived. I was missing that wide end that I know I would be pining for if I didn't have a lens in that focal range. I just hope the weather is going to get better than it's is now so I can get out get some photography done.
