Voigtlander 21 f3.5 Sensor Reflection

2 of 2 new toys. Looking for flare and sensor bounce. Both are reasonable, one small flare lower left of sun. Increasing contrast higher than normal does show some weak sensor reflections. Pretty good for my tastes. Rendering is very appealing to me, great, love it.

 

At 66, it is art right? It's like everything else in life, you develop an appreciation of your liking. I'm new to this but I think barrel distortion is appreciated, and a little mid frame fall off, nice in this over bright digital world, can be restful. Again, to me, subjects at this angle need to be an element in the group.

 

Once I find my focus spot, This will be a great addition to my light lens combinations taken on backpacking trips. 12 - 35 is great point and shoot focal lengths. 50 and above require focusing skill I yet to perfect and don't know if possible due to failing visual acuity. (It's not the equipment) When I take my zooms, I tend to be at one extreme or the other. Though I adore my 12-24 f4, it is heavy and bulky for walking chest mount. These eight ounce high performance lenses are nice. On a 2 pound budget, that could mean 4 lenses. Work that into your cross country photo shoot plan. Seems to me, Adams had 3 focal lengths, 35, 50 and 85. I like 12 to 35. The 90 is my Le Conte Canyon lens. On most trips for 2022 I'll take 12, 21, and 35 primes except for the End of Road to MTR via Lake Basin leg when I'll take the 90.

 

Both lenses , the 90 and this 21, together weigh 1 lb 2 ounces. :)
