Does anyone have experience using the Leica 28mm
I've been looking for something wide for those times when I walk through small festivals and parades.
28mm os a fantastic foco lenght in my opinion, I have used something different for festivals and parades that I personally find amazing 21mm it gives you an incredible zone focusing
I imagine that with the 21mm, you can set it and forget it and use it like a point-and-shoot.
Exactly!!!
28mm is really all I use. It's a tough lens, as it may seem flat at times. You really need to be close to subjects, or layer, to get the most out of it for street. Once you understand how it works well, and under what conditions, you'll love it.
Controversial take in the street community - but with a high megapixel camera, 28mm can provide some great opportunities for cropping.
In all, it's my favourite focal length. I use a 28mm Summicron as my main lens, and a Q3 28. Check out my gallery, 90% were shot on it, while my film photos are all on a 35mm lens (as I'm more patient and purposeful with film)
