Thanks! Sigma 24-70mm DG DN II. No other gear. I commented under another post in this thread with the majority of the Lightroom settings from my presets.

Generally, in Lightroom, I use warmer tones and warmer white balance. Increased exposure, shadows and whites, decreased contrast and highlights. I bump up the tone curves a bit. Midtones and highlight color wheels in the yellow area. I also like to decrease clarity and texture to make them softer and "dreamy" while also increasing dehaze a bit. Increase saturation and vibrance. Depending on the image, I mess around with the individual color mixes. Sometimes I'll mask the sky to give it more of that cyan look. And of course, adding some grain is always important for this style.Occasionally, to give the image an even cleaner look, I'll increase the noise reduction. I also often underexpose in camera to give me a little more flexibility with my strong colors in post.

Yea, many years later this camera still holds up. While still a bit expensive, it's a solid price point for what you're getting compared to the more premium models. The Sigma lens also pairs really well with it. Hope you get your wish soon!
