Is a Prime Lens All You Need?

Nice video! I have a fairly wide range of lenses for most of my cameras but I always seem to gravitate to the slightly wider focal lengths. Most of the time I really could take just one or two lenses along. The only zoom I have is a 55-110 for my Mamiya m645, it's a hefty chunk to carry, and again I seem to use it on slightly wider settings. I think that I am finally learning to carry less along with me and just work with what I have.

That cold sandwich you bought would cost at least $8 here in NYC. Wish we had Idaho prices

You'd have to hike down to the right of it from where you drove in. Amd that would not be easy so id give it a meh unless you have some attachment to it or want to take a before during and after collage.

When did you make hats? I missed that somewhere! Awesome!

Should have said what do you get when you mix sand, wind, and a zoom lens? A prime lens! 😂

I knew you were going to photograph the tree! Love it! I take pics of odd and unique trees all the ti.e now because of that tree you did a while back!

The dog in the water ans the cows wwre really good too!

Good one, Jude. Most of my prime lenses revolve around film cameras. The 135 prime is perhaps my favorite to carry around and use. No real beaches where I live either. Have a good one now.😀

I think that you can get more visual consistency between images if you stick to one focal length and of course it forces you to work the scene and come up with something different. I've found my zoom lenses less fun these days.

Idaho definitely looks better in summer than winter.
