Imagine a kit only a little bit bigger/heavier than an EOS-M, with very similar IQ to what you're use to right now. it exists ![]() I've been interested in the Fuji stuff but the reality is the photos that are important to me is vacationing stuff, dance recitals, choir concerts. I also find myself in a lot of low light situations where flash is not an option. Example: My kids birthday party at a place that does go cart, bumpers, games, laser tag, and mini putt putt. The sig 35 was my only option as I needed 1.4 and I needed some shutter ~320ish and my ISo was still 8000-12800. It's not great images but it captured those moments for me. Bounce was out since the walls were all purple and dark green and such and the ceiling was black colored insulation.

Longer focal lengths you can easily blow the background to cream and not get the story of the environment. On the other hand sometimes you "want" to force the eyes only on the subject. Here are 2 examples of the 24L II wide open. For reference. Full exif by clicking it. ![]() ![]() ![]() IMAGE LINK: https://flic.kr/p/nfxBRy ![]() ![]() ![]() James Patrus

Bounce was out since the walls were all purple and dark green and such and the ceiling was black colored insulation. I'm gonna try out this rogue flash bender and play around with it to see if that will help me out. But this is why I want to add a 24L... it's low light capability and it's wider than 35. I use the joe demb flipit for a bounce card. My most favourite ultra versatile modifier is the spinlight 360. The 360 has no limiations of where you want to bounce light regardless of what flash your using. 5Dmkiv |5Dmkiii | 24LmkII | 85 mkII L | | 16-35L mkII | 24-70 f/2.8L mkii| 70-200 f/2.8 ISL mkII| 600EX-RT x2 | 580 EX II x2 | Einstein's

At least 24mm will give you the option of cropping minimally to "almost" replicate the fl of a 35mm and possibly similar perspective. When I look at some photo's I've taken at events I feel the 35mm just misses the environmental background missing some emotions of "guests" at the ceremony. 24mm is wider and captures the moment and if it doesn't work I'll do a minor crop. Well I have been walking around w/ the 14-105 and trying out specifically 24/35/50/85 and I really see a need for all A7rIII | A7III | 12-24 F4 | 16-35 GM | 28-75 2.8 | 100-400 GM | 12mm 2.8 Fisheye | 35mm 2.8 | 85mm 1.8 | 35A | 85A | 200mm L F2 IS | MC-11
