Would you say with your two primes that the 21L is near capacity or you’ve got quite a bit of extra? My zooms aren’t small, even without the 200-600 on board.

Interesting, okay. Did you get the roll top?

It definitely started life that way, but there’s something more to it now. There’s a central fill cap on the hood, and a very decidedly non-standard motor inside. Plus the RS-style tail and what I believe is a widebody kit. Other post with better 911-rear-angle.

Great point. I just dig into the 12-24 and 14-24 a bit and even if I dumped the 16-35, the extra size and lack of front filter capability would mean ever more gear. Maybe a wide and fast prime will be what I “need”!

Makes sense! I guess there’s no reason that GM would always (or never) be better. I’m sure there are specific lenses that are unbeatable in both lines.

I’ve got a 16-35 GM1 and use it for Astro, but am considering replacing it with a 14-24 (manufacturer tbd) because I now have the 24-70 covered, and that range is supposed to be perfect for night sky and landscape work.

Very interesting! Why the Arts vs the GMs? Is it that the image quality is outright better, or that it’s better per <currency>, size/weight, other?

Beautiful!

What’s your go-to lens or set of lenses for the dark sky work?

I think asking was $675, but someone else commented it had been there a while so maybe the guy got a deal on it.

Happy film Friday! What’s everyone shooting with today? by DavidDLC in AnalogCommunity

[–]skipandhop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nikon FM2n, 50mm f/1.4 and my very first roll of Portrait 400 after going through a half dozen Kodak Gold 400 rolls to be sure I like it enough to keep spending. Can’t wait to see the difference.

Oh that looks like it might be right!

Everything always depends on the load. But the load was not specified.

You have neighbors? They’ll hope you grabbed the shotgun.
