Popular Post hiepphotog Posted November 29, 2015 Popular Post Share #1 Posted November 29, 2015 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) I think it's beneficial to have an image thread of a group of focal lengths so that we can share our pictures. It's also good for potential buyers and newcomers to look at and decide which lens/focal lengths they might want to purchase next. I see common thread keeps popping up asking others' opinions about certain lenses a few times a year. And most of the time, the opinions varied greatly. Personally, I shoot mostly UWA with a 50. So I hope other focal length groups would be created as well. Look forward to seeing your images.

Popular Post keithlaban.co.uk Posted November 29, 2015 Popular Post Share #7 Posted November 29, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm not over keen on the look of SWA lenses. Given the constraints of the subject I'll typically use the longest focal length possible. That said and for my interiors work I'll invariably use my 21mm SEM. Simply the best wide I've ever used. Examples below. 75 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiepphotog Posted November 29, 2015 Author Share #8 Posted November 29, 2015 Very nice captures guys. Keith, sometimes you just can't substitute an UWA, even outdoor, with a longer focal length. Indeed the lack of compression due to the capture distance might make things look detached. Anyway, here are a few "normal" looking pictures with the ZM 15: 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithlaban.co.uk Posted November 29, 2015 Share #9 Posted November 29, 2015 Keith, sometimes you just can't substitute an UWA, even outdoor, with a longer focal length. Agreed, which is why I said Given the constraints of the subject. Given those constraints I prefer a more natural perspective. As a painter I feel the perspective of UWA lenses is just so...well...photographic. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelwj Posted December 1, 2015 Share #12 Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) As a painter I feel the perspective of UWA lenses is just so...well...photographic. But isn't that kind of the point? It is a photograph after all. On the other hand, when not used well they can make very mundane 'forced' photos, so I see your point.

As a painter I feel the perspective of UWA lenses is just so...well...photographic. Yes. I think it has something to do with our 'natural' way of expecting the perspective to relate to the square of eye level. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
