Had to go outside tonight for a test of my Canon EF 24mm F/1.4 mkII
What do you think? Is it worth the US$1500?

But I shot 625 images tonight and will do a time lapse soon Helge

But it being a prime helps a lot Chopper Al wrote in post #11621534 Man, I would love to get up north one day just to view the light show. Great image. Al Last night it was really amazing. I actually packed and left before the aurora disappeared! We have had so much since Thursday that it helps for a while. megrac wrote in post #11622111 Thats awesome! Thank you Ed Harp wrote in post #11622167 Wlil that lens do that for me in Iowa? Nice aurora. Depends on what you want to shoot? But this is an great wide angle lens. Will also be perfect for other low light conditions Helge
