Hi Folks,
Basically, I feel I am a bit uncertain about a longish lens, despite placing a WTB for a Schneider 350mm on this forum! I have a 90, 135 and 210mm. I am generally a medium-wide, medium long sort of photographer (based on 35mm use). I live in a flat area and when photographing locally don't often feel the need for very wide, but surprising find the 210 often too short. I would like a longer lens for compressing features and for times when I simply can't walk in closer and also when in more hilly areas for isolating distant views. I also need to carry the lens so am ruling out Tele lenses (Nikon 360/Fuji 400mm). So, it comes down to Nikon 300mm or Schneider 350mm. The former is less costly than the latter! I feel that an extension bracket and fujinon 450mm might just induce too much wobble in the wind and so not really solve my "problem"
Any comments on how different the field of view is of the 300/350mmcompared to the 210 and if they really are sufficiently different? (I have a cardboard masked frame to have a rough idea and I often find it further from my eye than lenses I currently have).
Cheers
Graham
