Goin' Wide

SDP 8-6-16

After a few minor skirmishes between the SDP editorial staff and procurement division, I'm pleased to report the Editor-in-Chief prevailed and a Tamron 10-24mm lens recently was acquired and is now part of the SDP portfolio!  This was taken last night at 10mm....and there doesn't appear to be any "fisheye" bend.  Nice!  I definitely will be able to capture some beautiful sweeping landscapes with this lens.  The entire SDP staff is heading out west soon and will be touring several national parks (Arches, Grand Tetons, Yellowstone)...so, the lens acquisition occurred just in time! Really looking forward to testing it.

This is lovely, SRQ. I don't know how you avoided the fisheye look. When I am at the bottom end of my 18-135 mm zoom lens, I always get some bend that needs to be straightened in the editing or cropped out.
