Hi everyone,
First post so go easy on me!
I am currently rigging a Nikon Z6ii camera with a Sea Frogs Housing and a single strobe/flash light and looking for lens recommendations. I know that two stobes is better, but this will get me going to start with.
With a budget of no more that $1700AUD for the lens, looking at three options:
* 14-30mm F4;
* 17-28mm f2.8;
* 20mm f1.8.
Would like to also use the lens as an every day lens mainly for landscapes and astro-photography although I currently have a 14mm Samyang manual focus which I will keep as my go to astro lens mainly for timelapse.
Kinda leaning towards the 20mm f1.8 at the moment to avoid having a zoom ring in the housing and it adds some additional focal length as an astro lens but not sure that this lens will be wide enough for most underwater photography? So then the 14-30 or 17 to 28 might be better?
Thoughts?
Appreciate it.
John K.
