The 22 f/2 is great in low light, especially for the price. I'm not sure I'd call it wide-angle, but I guess that's relative. The two native Canon wide-angle M lenses, the 11-22 and 15-45, aren't ...

Thanks. I'm always trying to learn something new.

Would you be so kind as to describe how you processed these? Particularly the first one, how did you get the sky to look like that? Is it a single exposure or multiple stacked together?

There was a cool-looking frost pattern on the top of my car this morning.

I normally use this lens in low light/indoors for people pictures, but it's nice outdoors too.

I'm no expert on wildlife photography, but I would think that in general if there is not a lot of light you should definitely use the widest open aperture possible to keep the ISO down. The last ...

Some people have fancy radio controlled articulating setups with video downlink. To be honest, most of the time I have my hands full enough just flying the kite that I'd rather let it just take ...

Yes, I think you're right. I believe they used balloons too. The first use of kite aerial photography that I've heard about was from 1906, a truly impressive panorama of San Francisco after the ...

I went back a few days later (today) and got lucky with just the right amount of wind for my biggest kite. These weren't taken with an M, but I figure they're on topic. It kind of makes me wish I ...

Thanks for the compliment. I am impressed with this lens. I had the 18-55 but sold it after receiving this one and seeing how nice it could be at wide angle.

I was hoping to get some aerial pictures of this lake with my kite today, but alas, it wasn't meant to be, and I had to settle for pictures from the ground. Still beautiful though! You can ...

Thanks, Sue Anne. It's a fun way to do photography.

Here are some pictures of the Chesapeake Bay that I took yesterday.

Hadn't gotten a chance to fly in awhile. It was a cold, gusty day, but I managed to get some good pictures at a new location with a new (to me) camera. I can definitely tell the quality is better ...

I was looking for this thread a week or two ago when I got my 15-45. Must have missed it. Here are some of the pictures I like best with this lens so far. I like it better than the 18-55, mainly ...

I thought, hey, I didn't know there was a fixed telephoto EF lens. Maybe it would be cheaper than a zoom and I could use it with the adapter. Then I looked it up. Oh, it's an L lens. Never mind. ;) ...

But later clarified that she meant Jupiter+Saturn. Hopefully you get a chance to do it. I'd like to see how it looks at 400mm.

The planets are pretty bright, so they don't really need a long exposure. Of course, they're just basically going to look like orbs without pretty strong magnification. Here's what I was able to ...

Which star are you talking about? For astrophotography in general, if you don't have a tracking mount, you are going to be limited by the exposure time to avoid streaks, so you want something with ...

That's understandable, I guess. Personally I'll stick with my $400 M50 (a $200 net upgrade from the original M after selling it) and cheap lenses. :)
