I really like these files for B&W conversion. In the past, especially with the old Olympus 12 megapixel sensor, I struggled with banding a lot. Not with this sensor. I can safely say now that this is the best sensor I have worked with in the last few years, and I have worked with a lot (and still do). No banding or discolouration anywhere to be seen. Converting these images is just a dream come true. It saves a lot of time too because you don't have to go back and correct some part of the image that was overseen during the initial conversion.

I had to publish another one this evening and it's one from the Heliar 75 f2.5. Just got this the other week and I was looking forward to trying it out. Just another normal lens I thought until I ran the raws through Lightroom and opened them in Photoshop. What a terrific lens. I really don't know why the seller got rid of it. Didn't cost me an arm and a leg either. Great clarity and I like the rendition it gives me. Simply a wonderful lens to use. Build quality is also extremely high.

Amazing creatures on this world of ours.
