It started with the Canon standard zoom EFS 17-55f2.8 IS - take your pick, but I don't see that close to unique or nightshot lenses ^_^

 

... and feel free to come up with UV lenses, gearbox zoom or simply the cuddly feeling of some rubber rings 

 



 
I did some nightshots yesterday night and had troubles to focus. When I started to buy Nikon, the 14-24/2.8 was a tiny echo from the cheerful report of a Canon shooter who adapted it to his EOS 1D whatever mark. Honestly, I had no idea that I would own it only half a year later. These days it's more balanced, I think. Some glass would be worth to go Canon, but not necessarily accept the shortcomings of their sensors. Which I honestly expect to see in direct comparison - but not in real life. For Canon speaks also that I could adapt nearly all available lenses. And the Canon glass also is adaptable to Sony, so kind of investment protection.

Joju,


Night shots come with focusing problems by definition. AF systems generally do not work below EV -1 or thereabouts, which is independent of iso etc.

The only solution is MF, I am afraid.


Kind regards, Wim
