Help Choosing a Wide Angle Lens
Posted: Sat Nov 11, 2017 3:27 pm
Hi There. I got close to NO experience with wide angle lenses, so i think I would ask here. Tomorrow im going to this place called ZONGO between the andes and the jungle in Bolivia and I have to rent a wide angle lens for my Ursa Mini Pro.
The 2 lenses I could rent are 18-35mm or 11-16, but I can only choose ONE.
So question: If you pause this video here:
at 3:08... you can see a little house in the left corner. That's where we will be shooting. If you want to see the walls in the background, just from looking at the picture... would you go with 18-35 or 11-16 ?
Do you think 18 would be enough, because I only own lenses from 35mm up and I can only rent one lens.
This place is pretty far away from civilization, so I can't go back to get another lens once I'm there.
Any opinion would be gr8, THANX
The shoot is not about landscape, but the landscape is part of the story.
Would you dare to go there with a 35mm as your lowest focal length knowing that you might waste some landscape-shot-oportunitues?
