RF 10-20mm f/4L IS STM

I suspect the profile isn’t marking those areas as ‘out of frame, paint it black’, which means it tries to stretch the neighboring pixels to fill it.

I wonder if Adobe is experimenting with having generative AI fill in those black borders and forgot to turn on the settings for the ‘dumb’ border algorithm.
How does Canon's DPP rendering look? First day I had the 10-20mm, DPP looked fine, but the corrections wouldn't just transfer with RAWs to LR Classic.

Latest update to LR has corrected the 24-105 2.8 issue!

Hospital Cellblock looks really cool!

I've had more practice correcting the distortion and vignetting. Here I've used LR CC's RF 14-35mm profile to start, and then expanded with the distortion slider until I was just at the limits of where the lenshood petals are visible. If you've seen Fro's video about this lens, you know that without correction it captures slightly more than 10mm.

Vignette, exposure, contrast, and sharpness slightly corrected in LR CC--globally, without selective editing.

I forgot about this photo! It really is stunning!

A couple from Glacier 3000 during a trip to Les Diablerets, Switzerland. Sun broke through sometimes, but the ~3000 m peaks with the bridge between them were mostly in the clouds.

I am historically awful with ultra-wide angle lenses, but I decided to rent the RF 10-20mm f/4L IS STM for my current trip to Scotland. I haven't had any landscape opportunities with family and all, but I head to St Andrews tomorrow and I'll definitely get out and do that coast line. This is just a standard in a museum image, but I think I may have to buy one of these lenses and spend a lot of time with it and find some inspiration from people that are good with these sorts of lenses.

Here are a couple more with the RF 10-20mm f/4L IS STM.

I didn't much in the way of scapes, it was a family trip afterall. I did some decent portrait/people stuff, but I'll keep my family off the internet. I am going to buy this lens and keep trying to get better with the ultrawide. I'd rate some of the shots 5/10, which is better than it has been previously.

It would have been cool to shoot golf with it at St Andrews, but those boys paid a lot of money to do it and I didn't want to get in the way.
