Quote:I'm wondering - what do you need 11mm for? Just a question. Because I'm a bit lost at such focal lengths.
The answer is sort of "why do you want to climb this mountain?" "because it's there". Honestly, it was just curiosity about the brand and to have a wide angle I nearly could use as rear mirror
As a little bit more satisfying answer: I sometimes need to document machinery parts and I never have enough space or get enough angle. The lens has massive "reality" distortions, but it's also fun to use and enough to get an overview. Also (but that I haven't known before I decided to purchase it) it's challenging my Capture One skills. All of you detected corner softness, but if I posted the RAWs... :wacko: .
I would also get a oretty wide angle if I stitch tow 14 mm shots together. I'm just afraid that due to geometrical distortions, the stitcher would have a hard time. But I admit, I never tried...
