saw so many awesome skiiers out at Steamboat this year but NO boarders. However it was early in the season and the pipe and park weren't fully constructed yet.

TL · 03-04-2011, 12:31 AM

there's a good mix of boarders & skiers here....i have a few more pics to edit and post of my buddies doing some sick jumps

The1 · 03-04-2011, 06:10 AM

what camera are you using to get so many shots in? 7D, 1D or one of the nikons?

TL · 03-04-2011, 10:27 AM

Nikon D7000 on continuous high shooting mode (6fps) with Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 lens

The1 · 03-04-2011, 08:38 PM

High frame rates are fun

Chewy734 · 03-07-2011, 10:22 PM

Its sitting in my wish list on Amazon right now

Generally accepted as the best wide-angle lens for the aps-c Canon's right now (at least from what I have read and some pretty good images on Flikr-roo)

Litos · 03-08-2011, 08:33 AM

i'd have the Tokina 11-16 but it's not FX compatible

and the 14-24 is @ $1600...........

sooo many things i can do with $1600 though:

1) cam the SRT8
2) get some staggered 19's
3) get a 14-24
4) get some coilovers for the SRT8
5) get a 55" LED 120hz Samy (already have the 52" TOC 120hz LCD Samy)
6) trip back to D-Land with the kids
7) hookers and cocaine

If you want to be a winner, it would be an easy decision for you... #7.

That's mostly caused by tilting the sensor back in relation to the subject buildings. Spending a fortune on a lens would not have prevented that. (Spoken by one tha's spent fortunes on lenses).

The image is sharp, vignetting is very moderate and the small issues could be easily fixed in post, if desired.

I'm always interested to see peoples' reactions to this kind of huge distortion (leaning flagpoles and leaning buildings). I take it out of my images, but lots seem to prefer this "artificial" perspective. Khaye1 seems to like it.
