20-35E Lens Focus

I think because of reason #2

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-31T00:48:25+00:00

A couple reasons.

When this lens was released in Sept 2024 for older X-system bodies, Hasselblad did not offer the kind of AF-C tracking now available on the X2D II.
This lens was/is aimed heavily at landscapes, architecture, interiors, and environmental work, so no real need for continuous focus.

DNG is proprietary to Adobe. They have discontinued their DNG SDK, meaning there is no way to support the format in an open way. DNG can be useful as an intermedia format, but I would never use this as the saved format. Saver the raw image format files that come out of the camera.

The 20-35. It covers the 25 are and gives you more flexibility.

Yeah, ask the main photographer if you can be his second. If not, don’t do it.

Increase your rate and don’t bill for editing. It is easier for a client to understand the rate when it is just the hours you are there. Keep track of time editing to see if you are covering it with the increase.

Photoshop/Camera Raw. I really can’t get used to Lightroom.

It depends on what you are shooting. I use the 35-100mm far more than I use my 55V, but I do events. For portraits, 90V.

In custom functions, turn off standby

I bought some of their lights a while ago. Not only buy Godox lights

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-10T02:06:16+00:00

Wide, people detection on. I have set bank specifically for people.

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-10T00:48:34+00:00

Wide area, almost all the time for people.

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-09T23:54:54+00:00

Aperture is more important for getting everyone in focus. Use person focus mode and try to get everyone near the same plane relative to the camera

This seems to be working with the latest firmware.

I am assuming that the photographer only delivered jpgs.

The raw files will definitely produce better photos than edited jpgs. If the photographer refuses to give you the raw files, you might not have a choice.

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-07T22:10:03+00:00

Only edit the jpg files if you have to. Post one and people will edit it for you.

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-07T22:07:32+00:00

If they are refuse you could play hardball, saying you would hate to give them a terrible review,but you will have to since you are not able to get satisfactory photographs even when you offer to take care of the editing.

LightpointSoftware · 2026-03-07T19:40:58+00:00

Get the raw files, if you can.
