The Ultra Wide Angle Thread

[Old Timer]

Just so you know here is what happens when you use a 12-24 DX lens on a full frame body.

That's some serious vignetting.

[Old Timer]

That's some serious vignetting.

Yeah it can be kind of a neat effect in the right situation. If you back it down a bit it is still usable on the D700, but I am drooling over an ultra wide that is designed for the full frame camera.

Sort of like looking through the keyhole, eh.

Downtown Chicago at Blue's Fest today... playing with the new (used) Tokina.

[Liz]

CaraRose,

Congratulations on your new Tokina. These are very nice images.....

It looks like you're enjoying the wide angle. Keep posting those pics! I don't have my Tokina anymore, but love viewing shots taken with it.

[Frog]

Cara, is that the 11-16 or the 12-24 ?

[CaraRose]

Thanks Liz

It's the 12-24, Frog.

[Frog]

That's the one I have...love it even if I don't use it much.

Ultra-wide @ 3.8mm

[Frog]

Cool shot!

The widest that I have is the 24 70 but have the Tokina 11 16 2.8 and the nikon 14 24 in my cart at Amazon want the Nikon but can't justify the $$. Tokina would probably be fine. Need to make up my mind and pull the trigger on one of these soon maybe fathers day :confused5:

I'm very happy with my Tokina and I've never heard a negative on them.

Nice,Greg. What is the crop?

[Greg McCary]

Nice,Greg. What is the crop?

I did crop it a little and did a lens correction in PS. Or did you mean what is it? I think it's hay. But I am a suberbanite so I really ain't sure.

[Grandpaw]

Took this a while back with my Sigma 10-20mm taken at 10mm on a Nikon D90. I have sold 4 or 5 of this picture at a 20x30 inch size framed. There is a 20x30 inch copy of this photo in the welcome center at the Gulf Island National Seashore Park in Ocean Springs as their main picture , Jeff

[Greg McCary]

Nice Jeff.

[Grandpaw]

Nice Jeff.

Thanks Greg. It doesn't have it here but if you could see it hung on the wall of the welcome center framed, double matted and in the 20x30 size it does have the wow factor there, Jeff

[Frog]

lol, Greg...I did mean what crop is it. Doesn't look like hay to me but maybe you have different hay back there.

I remember that one, Jeff...either here or via email. It is a great shot.

[dolina]

Yes, the center watermark is distracting but I don't want my photo stolen.
