Not Telling
These stats are all for underwater images shot with a Nikon D3 (FX), between April 2008 (when I switched over to digital) and last weekend (when I first tried out the Nikon 16-35mm).
All Images
--------------------------------- Total underwater images 10913 --------------------------------- Sigma 15mm FE 58.36% Nikon 16-35mm 0.41% (Very New lens) Nikon 20mm 13.21% Nikon 60mm 5.54% Nikon 105mm 22.47% --------------------------------- Total wide angle 71.99% Total macro 28.01%
Keeper Images
--------------------------------- Keeper images 1952 --------------------------------- Sigma 15mm FE 60.09% Nikon 16-35mm 0.10% Nikon 20mm 11.32% Nikon 60mm 5.12% Nikon 105mm 23.36% --------------------------------- Wide angle keepers 71.52% Macro keepers 28.48%
Favorite Images
--------------------------------- Favorite images 551 --------------------------------- Sigma 15mm FE 40.83% Nikon 16-35mm 0.00% Nikon 20mm 1.27% Nikon 60mm 4.54% Nikon 105mm 53.36% --------------------------------- Wide angle favorites 42.11% Macro favorites 57.89% ---------------------------------
So a lot more overall shooting with wide angle lenses, but the favorites lean more towards macro. Interesting!
By the way, is there an easy way to get all these numbers without creating separate collections to do the counting? I'd never used Lightroom before and didn't see anything relevant in the menus or help (although I didn't spend a ton of time searching).
And since the topic of the 16-35mm has crept into this thread, I gather from other sources too that it is better than the 17-35mm underwater and is stunning behind the Zen 230 dome. For now, I'm shooting it with my existing Subal 8" Fisheye dome, with a 70mm extension, and am trying shots with and without a 2+ diopter. This is all to keep me busy until it's time to splurge on the Zen dome and have a really sweet combination
Cheers,
