I'm traveling to Alaska this summer and want a wide angle lens for 4x5 landscape work. So far, all I have is a 150/256 beautiful Schneider convertible lens from the 70's. It's super sharp even opened up and has been great for portraiture and some still life/nature shots. I now want a good lens for landscape work.
I'm a student and I can't spend too much on the lens which brought me to the 6.8 90mm Schneiders that can be found for under $150.00. However, the lack of movement and lack of coverage with that lens scares me. So far, I shoot almost exclusively B&W but I'm hoping to get into color soon. Im relatively new to the LF thign but I've been looking around and reading this forum constantly looking for other lenses.
The Rodenstock Grandagons seem awesome but they are kind of expensive. Same deal with the SA 90mm 5.6 lens.
I don't really want to deal with a f/8 lens just because if I want to shoot at night in Alaska with the wide angle, I'll be out of luck.
So, please, any suggestions, corrections, thoughts, opinions would be MUCH appreciated.
