😁
Oly includes starry sky AF mode so why not a fast wide prime?
No idea why not, but neither P nor O has gone in that direction. OTOH, Oly's
wide primes aren't stellar, to date.
Oly has the non-rectilinear fisheye but how about a true 7 or 8mm f1.8?
I imagine the Laowa 7.5/2 isn't good for astro? I didn't get along with it for travel; I just didn't take notes and do
the EXIF. Walking around a Dzong, inside and out, juggling three cameras, didn't work for recording. 😁 Later, I think I
got all of them at least labeled. By default, anything without an EXIF lens, on the E-PL7, on that trip, had to be the
Laowa. But no aperture info.
Absent the need for astro, I've been pleased with my Panny 7-14/4 and 8/3.5 fishy Still waiting to see how I like the
Voightländer 10/5.6 in the field. The corners are seriously stretched, but I see it as a panorama lens, where those
parts get cropped.
At least it does EXIF!
Turning blue, Mike
