Thanks for the insights. For my part, if I'm shooting wide and it the
focal length is not right for the shot, I just *walk*
Hmm. That's a little ambiguous... depending upon what you mean:
- Walking changes the perspective of the shot.
- Walking away means you don't get it at all.
Let's assume that you want to get the shot... ;-)
Working close-in with a wide lens, perspective is very important and
very changeable with minor changes of distance. A 20-35 affords a
great deal of versatility in perspective at a close-in distance
without having to carry several different lenses.
BTW, I'm settling in nicely with my Treo 650. It's pretty capable and
much more stable than my Samsung Palm phone. Just got some retractable
2.5mm headphones, and just installed a car kit - - Treo enablement is
starting to rival Pentax enablement.....
Good to hear you're enjoying it. I find the Treo 650 invaluable. And
yes: freekin' accessories. I've been eyeing the wireless keyboard and
Bluetooth headset...
If you want a good case, I like the ones made by Covertec. I use the
Covertec flip case ... it protects the screen well without being
obnoxiously cumbersome or bulky, and the phone slips out of it easily
for when you want completely unimpeded access to keyboard buttons.
