Some images from Italy (Central Alps and Rome) taken with the new king of wides :giggle: at least in terms of field of view.

Some of the images are single shots, some are panoramas. It is funny how, no matter how wide a lens I have, sooner or later I find myself wanting wider for some shot :ROFLMAO:

A few considerations:

  • Loved size and weight: it's no effort to carry around and even my 10yo daughter was comfortable holding it on the R5+battery grip
    • added bonus: she found it funny and wanted to take photos of us and me to take photos of her, which is an increasingly rare occurrence nowadays
  • It's well built and does not feel cheap
  • Not a huge fan of the lens cap - it takes a while to mount sometimes
  • The lens is sharp and cannot fault its image quality
  • I guess, as photographer, 10mm is fun but, ultimately, too wide in most circumstances - difficult to achieve a good composition without too many unwanted elements in
  • 20mm is a much more versatile fl, especially if people are involved
  • Panoramas are doable at 20mm but at 10mm you get in iffy land... too much distortion
All in all, I will keep it, but it is a niche lens for me - I really really want the 35mm f/1.2L as some of you may recall :LOL:
