From this year you'll need to purchase tickets to get in. They're limited to 1.5 mio visitors for the year.

 

 

Not true... but maybe they should!

 

 

The country where I was born is literally been worn out by the so many ( and growing) visitors not all of whom are respectful of the place.

rumors, makes good titles, nothing has yet been decided and in any case not for next summer, and most probably won’t ever happen.

 

Same would apply to Venice and Florence ( in Venice would be a lot easier and yet...). There have been rumors for ages there  to do the same thing in the same way. The problem is enforcement.

 

They never did it there.

 

Anyway, should you be interested this article of a local paper says that it was something that someone, the president of the National Park ( hardly a major political authority) simply hypothesized reducing the number of the visitors by centralizing the booking of the visitors from abroad and of course the National and international press blew this up to the point that all manner of tourist organizations started to revoke their bookings while NOTHING has been done yet!

 

The local population is angry and against this rumor, which is not even a plan.

 

It was just an interview when someone said that the present situation might lead to that! This is the usual way rumors in the press work. Also it would only impact people who book holidays directlly there  but there will never be the possibility to check day trippers ( whose impact is the largest) just coming down with a car from any major city east or west of the 5 terrre.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
