There are certainly a lot of great WA vistas in Yosemite. There are also
some fascinating 'distant vistas' up on the walls that require a long
lens. Although most of my shots were in the 35-105 range, 200mm was
useful and I got one shot I love with 300mm. Next time, I'm taking
something even longer, and maybe the 18mm as well. It was late winter,
with a dusting of snow while we were there, so the air was clear when
the clouds cleared.

Having dropped by Yosemite NP a few weeks ago to see the sights and by the way
snap a few photos, the second thing I noticed after the awful air quality in
the main valley was that all of the "serious" camera people were shooting with
200mm+ zooms on their cameras. What up with that? If there's anyplace on the
planet that cries out for prime lens shooting with a 28mm or wider, it's
Yosemite. I didn't bring my wide adaptor to screw onto the C2500 so I am
going to have to do a bit of stitching, just to be able to show some of the
amazing vistas.
Of course for photos, Winter is a much better time of year, if only for the
better air quality. This reflected in the shooters as well, with the view
camera crowd being in evidence at the prime viewing sites.
