So as part of my artistic renaissance, I've decided to test myself...

I've been spending money like a drunken sailor on new gear lately (it's okay though, I still have 8x10 view camera levels of credit to burn ) so I decided to go full send and picked up a 10-20mm for my D7100, 15-30mm 35mm equivalent…glass that wide is pretty difficult to use well, and I'm looking forward to the challenge! Stay tuned…

(if you missed my renaissance so far, for therapeutic reasons I got some new gear and I've been putting it to decent use, to some encouraging reviews)

Get used to shooting HDR on it…I’ve found that’s the only way to deal with the weird meter readings you’ll get. When I still had an RB67 (7 pounds with standard lens and waist level finder) I bought a Tiltall tripod, which is great for using that lens.
