wide angle lens picture

[lowbudget]

what are you guys shooting with your wide angle lens???

 

[iceemn360]

What make are you asking about (ie. cannon, nikon, sony, pentax)? im shooting with a pentax DA* 16-50 F2.8 contiguous as my main wide angle. but i think others here might better direct you for other makes.

heres typical shot from my wide angle at the wide end

I shot with a Nikkor 14-24mm wide angle on my Nikon and use it both on land and underwater (even though its not ideal underwater in my setup). It is however a fantastic lens.

Here's a rather touristy shot I took in London (first day I had the lens and took it out for some practice).

nice, would like to see more. dont really matter what brand. but i do have a canon.

Wide angle lenses can also be used, quite dramatically, for close-up work.

[lowbudget]

wow, which one are you guys using? thinking about getting the canon 14-40 l

 

[t5Nitro]

Think you mean the 17-40L? Great lens.

beerguy is the only one from the above pictures that uses it.

 

[lowbudget]

yeah i meant 17-40l, my buddy is going to let me try his out see how i like it and if its wide angle enough.

If you've got a crop body camera, 17 isn't very wide. If that's the case, check out the Tokina 12-24; I loved that lens.

 

[lowbudget]

i will be joining the lens with a 40d, thanks i check out the 12-24

 

[rhoptowit]

you could get the ef-s 10-22mm

 

[Maxxumless]

Like the others said, 40D is a cropped body (I have a 40D as well). Watch out for vignetting with such wide angle lenses (darkening of the boarders).

I have the 10-22 sigma on my canon 20D... I really like it.

 

[lowbudget]

wow sorry for the late response, but you guys are right 17-40 isnt that wide. im gonna have to try and rent a 10-22

This guy just happened to be cruising thru my yard as I was playing with my new Sigma.

and a weak Aurora..

This is my first "wide" lens. Really wide at least.

I had the 20mm and it is wide but not really VERY wide. I like the new fisheye but haven't had much time with it yet.

20mm

This one was with a zeiss 21mm on a 1ds II

Oh man, Horseshoe Point. I love that place. Nice shot. I need to scan my sldes from that area.

Horseshoe Point, or Dead Horse Point?

 

[IPT]

No, I think that is "Horseshoe Point". There is another place called Deadhorse point where they suppossedly drove the horses over the edge. If I remember corrctly that is in one of the state parks and it isn't as spectacular as Horseshoe. Horseshoe point is just a lookout of the horseshoe shaped bend in the river outside I forget what town..Page maybe.

This was back in the MF film days for me but I remember wishing I had a lens with a wider view.

 

[brent ward]

Yeah this is horseshoe bend near paige, az.

Deadhorse point is in canyonlands, NP in Utah.
