DwF Posted April 12, 2020 Share #1 Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) These were taken at the crack of dawn in Skagit Valley, Washington State. This is a beautiful place to be to catch sunrise and so my son and I were there this morning. In such a wide expansive place as this, I realize how easily the 90mm lens becomes my 50. That extra reach in such open space feels about normal, and so it was, the "fat Tele" affixed to my camera for the entire outing.

Advertisement Posted April 12, 2020 Posted April 12, 2020 Hi DwF, Take a look here 90mm, the new normal?! . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
FrancoisF Posted April 12, 2020 Share #2 Posted April 12, 2020 Beautiful set DwF! I have a Leica Elmarit R 90mm that I put on my Nikon D700. It's a great combo! Regards. François 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterm1_Leica Posted April 13, 2020 Share #3 Posted April 13, 2020 I have a soft spot for short to medium tele lenses and often prefer them to "normal" and wide angle lenses. I especially like them for street photos as they allow longer reach and helps avoid disturbing the subject plus their lesser depth of field helps with background separation. I especially like the feel of the fat tele elmarit on my Leica. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwF Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted April 13, 2020 Thank you Francois, that sounds like a nice combo and I bet that lens balances nicely on the D700 body. And Peter, I haven't been as comfortable with the 90 on the street but it certainly lends itself to that and especially being so compact as this little fat boy!

Tom Johnston Posted April 13, 2020 Share #5 Posted April 13, 2020 The Fat Tele-Emarit has a lot going for it, size, build, design, and what it does to space. This was on an M10. This example is from a series I've been doing for the past couple years with different cameras and lenses, from different vantage points, playing with the space involved with the renovation of a building that was long vacant and dubbed by the locals as the "mistake by the lake."
