The 24mm Focal Length
I have 24mm lenses in some of my camera systems but not others, and up until recently while I own thses lenses I didn't use them much unitl this past winter, with the Nikkor Ais 24 f2.8 lens with my black Nikon FM. I also used that same lens on this year's NLP trip up to Norhtern Muskoka and I really loved the photographs I got out of it. So with a recent trip into the city, I packed my Nikkor N 24 f2.8 lens with my Nikon F2SB instead of the Nikkor H 28 f3.5 lens. The 24mm lens got used just past sun down which this time of year was around 5 PM. I need something that can hoover light in and the same time deliver reasonably shart results I can print from. The Nikkor N 24 f2.8 delivers in this case. I also love the OM Zuiko, and Canon FD SSC 24 F2.8 lenses. They both deliver in spades in this focal length camera companies usually go to town and deliver a stunning piece of glass. I'm still on the hunt for something in Pentax K mount and Minolta Rokkor MC/MD mount, patience ...
