Sublime shots Owen !
I have planned to go to scotland next summer, and especialy in the Isle of Skye. I'm a prime shooter and i've never done landscapes...
What Lens did you use here ? Can you share with us ?
As I don't have any WA, i'm debating between 21mm and 24mm.. What would be your choice ?
Hi Sam
These images were all taken with the Canon 17-40mm f4 L.
Focal lengths in order of images 22,19,40,17mm. Looking at your lens collection I would be more inclined toward a zoom that covers ultra wide angle to standard. If you are looking for a single lens to use for landscapes then the zoom range would afford far greater advantage than whatever image quality improvement you would gain from a prime.
Great compositions could be achieved with either of the focal lengths you suggest, if I have to chose one it would be the 21mm but only because that is the nature of my shooting style.
Thank you Owen !
I know that a zoom would be useful, but i always see myself selling them when i buy them (i've had a 24-70, I have an EFS 17-55 2.8 IS, but it will also go...)
I'm debating between the Zeiss Distagon 21 F2.8 and the Canon 24 L II. If I was doing a lot of landscapes I would chose the Zeiss in a heartbeat, but I do a lot more portrait & environnemental portraits... so difficult to chose ;-)
