So, for all of the other visual learners out there, who don't bother with FOV conversions & charts.... (The rest of you move along, lest you be tempted to reply: DUH...)
Recently, I had the need to explore the ranges of wide angle lenses. I have the 12-24mm for my k-5ii, but was curious how much wider I could reasonably expect to get ... I rented the 10-17mm pentax lens , and the D610 with a sigma 12-24 to compare... not apples to apples, but close enough. Here's the result... https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2FyWgglq6t8Sm9yVUFtWC1QZXM/view?usp=sharing "Corrected" fisheye image at 10mm = ff image at 12mm. Huh! I know it's not a completely fair comparison, but I really thought ff would be... wider. Still, I will not let this discovery deter me. Now that the holidays are over, expect my order to be incoming, Messrs B&H! ;) -c -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
