Showcase Sony FE 12-24mm G (SEL1224G)

[dbmiller]

I couldn't find a Showcase thread for this lens, so I might as well start one. Mods can move if I missed an existing thread.

These are at 12mm, and on the A6000. I can't image how wide this will get on FF.

And now for some FF pics. One with a Haida 64x (6-stop) ND filter, the other without.

Beautiful! But how did you get a 25 sec. exposure without a ND filter on the second shot?

Sun was nearly set, and opened up to f/4 instead of f/8. In actuality, the scene to my eyes looked more like...

... and when I was first setting up, almost an hour earlier, exposure without ND was only 1/3rd of a second.

Nice shots, I've had mine about a month now and love it, it's a good lens

Nice location and well captured.
I think the non-nd filtered shot ticks all the boxes

Two from today. One cropped to 3:1 pano. The other is cropped 16:9 to fit my laptop screen.

6-Stop ND plus CPL. ISO-50 to get that extra shutter speed. Both at f/8, 2s for the 3:1, 1.6s for the 16:9.

I used the Sigma 12-24, and it was probably my favorite lens, but twice as heavy as this one. That is actually one reason I switched from Canon to Sony. The problem now is getting enough money to buy one! I'm going to look into it tomorrow. Can't wait to get back to Ultra-ultra-wide.

I sold mine, switched brands, came back to Sony, bought a new one...and mine's still the last pic up...odd.

Lately people tend to post in the pic-a-day or subject forums instead of the lens showcases.

This is clearly a very nice lens.

Yeah, we need more showcase pics from several lenses - I've been trying to post there instead of pic-a-day, unless we already have a bunch of pics in the thread for whatever lens I'm using.

I have noticed many of our showcase threads have stagnated. I can understand that as I do not think everyone looks at the showcase threads, and people like to post where they think their content will be seen. It seems pic-a-day is perhaps the most popular thread on the site (no special admin insight there, just my perception).

Speaking for myself and not the site, I think it is OK to crosspost to both pic-a-day and a lens showcase. Win-win.
