Re: Wide angle for K-X?

I did a quick check in Lightroom, and since last March, I have shot over 1000 frames with the 21mm; that surprised me; I didn't think I'd shot that many. I went with the 21mm prime because I really wanted to go light in terms of weight for the wide end and have a lens that wouldn't call attention to itself. I am a huge fan of the DA* 50-135mm--a superb lens--and I'm sure the DA* 16-50mm f 2.8 is equally superb, but in considering a wide lens for weight, street work, and family snaps, (anything really--Ted has shot some beautiful landscapes with the 21mm) you just can't go wrong with 21mm. Despite its 3.2 f-stop, it also performs well in challenging light situations. I've put together a gallery of 12 pics shot in different light situations. I didn't use any flash for any of these pics. The meta data is at the top, and a very brief description of the lighting situation is at the bottom. All of these pics have had some tweaking in post-processing, but nothing extensive--I might have lightened up darks or shadows a twinge or bumped up the lights or increased exposure by +19 or 29---very quick tweaking done in a matter of seconds. If I could only take two lenses while traveling, I would take DA 21mm the DA* 50-135mmand, well, I'd probably have to sneak the FA 50 mm f1.4 in my brazier--that's great lens too in my view--I'm kind of partial to that lens as well :-).

Re: Wide angle for K-X?
Nice collection Christine! I particularly like the last shot, of Darrel. And I agree with you about the 21mm. I have been surprised by how much I have used mine. In my film days I seldom used my 30mm or 31mm (approximately the same FOV), but the 21mm has been one that is always carried and frequently used. I also have the 14/2.8 and the 15/4.0 lenses. The bulk of the 14mm is offputting for me, but the 15mm is another winner in a class with the 21mm. The 14mm is in my small stack of items I have decided to sell one of these days when I get around to it... stan On Jan 2, 2010, at 12:00 AM, Christine Aguila wrote: Hi Sandy: Like Godfrey, I'd like to recommend the Pentax DA 21mm.

I am a huge fan of the DA* 50-135mm--a superb lens--and I'm sure the DA* 16-50mm f 2.8 is equally superb, but in considering a wide lens for weight, street work, and family snaps, (anything really--Ted has shot some beautiful landscapes with the 21mm) you just can't go wrong with 21mm. Despite its 3.2 f-stop, it also performs well in challenging light situations. I've put together a gallery of 12 pics shot in different light situations. I didn't use any flash for any of these pics. The meta data is at the top, and a very brief description of the lighting situation is at the bottom. All of these pics have had some tweaking in post-processing, but nothing extensive--I might have lightened up darks or shadows a twinge or bumped up the lights or increased exposure by +19 or 29---very quick tweaking done in a matter of seconds. If I could only take two lenses while traveling, I would take DA 21mm the DA* 50-135mmand, well, I'd probably have to sneak the FA 50 mm f1.4 in my brazier--that's great lens too in my view--I'm kind of partial to that lens as well :-).

Cheers, Christine - Original Message - From: Sandy Harris sandyinch...@gmail.com To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net Sent: Friday, January 01, 2010 9:49 PM Subject: Wide angle for K-X? I'm on a limited budget, looking for fairly lightweight travel combination. I have a fairly strong bias toward primes, though just getting the 16-50 as a single lens does tempt me some. My last good camera (stolen some time back not yet replaced) was an MX and on it, I used the 85/1.4 for at least 75% of shots and a 28 for most others. I had the 40 mm pancake and a teleconverter, didn't use either much. So this one will be a K-X with the 58/1.4 Voigtlander. Comments on that choice appreciated too. What I really want to know, though, is what can folks suggest as a wide angle to go with that? Zeiss is beyond my budget and a 12-24 or 10-20 zoom too heavy. I need a good prime, around 24 mm, at a moderate price. The Pentax 21/3.2 Limited and Sigma 24/1.8 are obvious possibilities; either might suit but I'm not sure either is ideal for me. What else should I be considering? Checking Pentax's site, I don't see a 24/2 or 24/2.8 among current offerings. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Geso Stouffville walk II-1-1-10
Actually this thread has reminded me that I once filmed inside a series of deep freezes - a collection of rooms within rooms, varying in temperature in the first room at -5c, through to -15c in the second room, and finally through to -25c. Even with winter jackets on, we could only be in the final room for about 5 minutes - the camera was not set up for such conditions and plastic cabling will do funny things in such cold. Even in 5 minutes the zoom remote on the pan bar was frozen solid and it became painful to actually breathe so the [food company manager] brought us out. It was very quickly gave me a lot of respect for people that live in cold conditions. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche -- http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: Wide angle for K-X?
Hello Sandy, It would help to indicate realistically how much you are willing to spend. There are quite a few options that have a wide range of price. Also, since you are talking about an APS-C format, how wide are you really thinking? 28mm for full frame is not really very wide, just starting to get wide. For APS-C that is about an 18mm lens. So it you really want wide, you are looking at the 14/2.8, 18-55, 16-45 and 16-50 for current lenses. More info would help us give more useful opinions. -- Best regards, Bruce Friday, January 1, 2010, 7:49:39 PM, you wrote: SH I'm on a limited budget, looking for fairly lightweight travel SH combination. I have a fairly strong bias toward primes, though just SH getting the 16-50 as a single lens does tempt me some. SH My last good camera (stolen some time back not yet replaced) was an SH MX and on it, I used the 85/1.4 for at least 75% of shots and a 28 for SH most others. I had the 40 mm pancake and a teleconverter, didn't use SH either much. So this one will be a K-X with the 58/1.4 Voigtlander. SH Comments on that choice appreciated too. SH What I really want to know, though, is what can folks suggest as a SH wide angle to go with that? Zeiss is beyond my budget and a 12-24 or SH 10-20 zoom too heavy. I need a good prime, around 24 mm, at a moderate SH price. The Pentax 21/3.2 Limited and Sigma 24/1.8 are obvious SH possibilities; either might suit but I'm not sure either is ideal for SH me. SH What else should I be considering? Checking Pentax's site, I don't see SH a 24/2 or 24/2.8 among current offerings. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

That could be due to the micro contrast enhancement trick I use on

clean to begin with no amount of tricks will make it look a lot better.

PESO High Voltage Headshot
Just an old warning sign I saw at La Granja manor (south of Valldemossa, Mallorca, Spain) and found kinda fun. La Granja is a medieval manor now converted into a museum based on its own history; well worth a visit if you are in the area. Friends own a small apartment on a hilltop overlooking Puerto de Andratx which has a fabulous view but is in somewhat poor repair so they rent it out for 15 to 25 € a night which is next to nothing by any standard. Thus, I will definitely be going there again some day. http://tinyurl.com/yeedjp4 Same Picasa web album as always Comments appreciated as always Cheers Ecke -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Even with winter jackets on, we could only be in the final room for about 5 minutes - the camera was not set up for such conditions and plastic cabling will do funny things in such cold. Even in 5 minutes the zoom remote on the pan bar was frozen solid and it became painful to actually breathe so the [food company manager] brought us out. It was very quickly gave me a lot of respect for people that live in cold conditions. Friend of mine who lived in the UK for a number of years opines that no one in Canada really understands rain and no one in the UK really understands cold. There might be some truth to this.
