Hi everyone.
I shoot a MMIIex/YS-60. Don't everyone roll there eyes. I've had it for many years and am very good at geting it to do what I want in macro and 35mm. I finaly have some extra $$ and am looking to get a WAL. I only want one and can get both for the same price. I mostly dive off the CA coast so I do alot of macro work. I like the idea of 16mm alowing me to get closer but I worry about coverage with a single strobe. I'm mainly want the lens because with 35mm in 20ft vis. you often can't see your subject through the murk and get it in the frame at the same time. I just wan't to get closer to objects. I'm not photographing huge scenic vistas in the tropics. Will a 20mm suit me fine? I worry a 16mm up close is to big and will give me lighting and "fish bowl" problems.
I would love any advice.
Thanks so much.
