Like you I’m not a fan of a systematic wide-open lens photography but some times fast lenses comes handy. Shooting wide open has its times and when these times are the right ones the result can’t be but amazing.

I’ve been experimenting with wide portraits lately (Fujifilm 16/1.4) and so was drawn to this series. I’ve been wondering whether the Q2’s 28mm would be wide enough for me.
Thanks,

Well Choi, for me who visited Bukhara many decades ago and also had a couple of good local acquaintances there, these photos are very touchy. And, BTW, in my photo perception, beat the other thread.I know these do not give you a clear idea of how the city looks like. You may wish to refer to the other thread.

I think 28mm is pretty wide even for street portraits. Having said that, 21mm may have its charm at times.

It's nice to see some film shots taken decades ago. They all still look familiar to me. Thanks for sharing your well-kept photos.

Many thanks Josh. I think your Q2 would make a formidable tool in these places.
