Taken near central this morning. Sat under a flimsy umbrella in the light rain for about an hour- good practice for keeping gear dry in these conditions.

First time using the new 'dehaze' feature in Lightroom, quite an impressive improvement over the RAW shot. This is nearing 1:1 crop from a 55-300mm DX lens, shot with the FX D750.

Right on! I do have a Tokina 12-28mm DX which (like you would assume) has unusable vignetting at just under 18mm and below, using FX.

1/320th, 4500 ISO, f/5.6

I assume you mean DX to FX vignetting? The Nikon 55-300 DX is actually surprisingly usable on FX @ 300mm, with some vignetting that is easily fixed in post if using the full image. Vignetting on this lens is heaviest around 95mm, with about 20% unusable. If I'm using this telephoto I tend to be at or around 300mm anyway, so it works pretty well for me while I gather the funds for the new 200-500mm Nikon ;)

Yup full 300mm! I just checked and comparing the two I would say it's cropped at about 85% magnification, not sure how to calculate that though.

The RAW file's specs in pixels show 6016x4016 while cropped is 933x960.
