chrismitchell Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 The difference in price, oh, about $2,000. If I want the Nikkor, I most likely will have to wait until next summer. The Samyang I can buy next week, maybe $300 to $500. The question is. Is the Samyang worth owning? The no autofocus might not be a problem. I am attempting to figure out astrophotography, (not as easy as it sounds.) I see my self sitting in Yellowstone Park taking long exposures of the Norris geyser basin, or figuring out how to combine photos into one.

chrismitchell Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 I finally got a fx camera. z5. For the next years I will be slowly accumulating lenses. Maybe even get a 60 mega pixel z in a few years? As I grow old I will be spending a lot of time in National Parks. I am going to post a couple of pictures from my rx100. As a basic idea of what I kind of pictures I am trying to figure out.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismitchell Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 These are a couple of my first efforts with the in camera multiple photo settings. I admit I haven't got it figured out yet. I only am only posting them in hopes of getting some lens advice. I expect to pursue this style of photo and get it figured out after a while. These from Z5 with an 24 200 f4 - f6. That's the most camera I could pay for at one time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_halliwell Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Apart from the somewhat bizarre derailleur + star trail shot, you seem to be doing OK! Something very weird going on with the left horse's ears.....:eek: I have the previous version of Samyang 14mm, there is some coma on FX, but not so bad. The newer version is a new construction, so hopefully better corrected. The Nikon 12-24mm Z is just pretty expensive, the 14-30mm Z is cheaper but has pretty bad coma too.
