I’m a LA based Climber, lover of cameras, diver, always failing surfer and Geologist by profession. I love to read - fiction - essays - poetry - philosophy. And if I’m not exploring the planet, taking photos , I’m playing Mass Effect for the 100th time.
I used to rent the 70-200mm f/2.8 for weddings, I’m just not interested in carrying a lens that large around (EVER). The 70-200 f/4 does feel that much smaller, but I believe it retains the internal zoom, which is great for photography, keep dust and shit out.

Of course the most superb version is really the 28-300L

In my recollection, it was significantly lighter than the F2.8 version. I’ve used both and I owned the F4 version for a long time, I myself would buy the F4 version again, the F2.8 version is way too bulky and massive for my taste.

Sounds like a job for a 70-200mm, that gives you options. Canon makes the f/4 version which is affordable and fantastic and uses these days goes for very little $$ compared tot the f/2.8, which you don’t really need for landscape work.

Evening shots! Early morning shots there were weird because the lights coming from the east, not the Oceanside

Aperture priority 100% for me, I almost never want shutter priority, and fully manual is fucking boring, but I’ll do it if I have no choice.

So it’s just some old long stored FP4? Either way FP4 is such a beautiful film.

I think it pushes really well, I mean Delta is an amazing film as well, you can’t go wrong either way! I find Kentmere to be a perfect price point especially to buy a 100 feet

These days, I generally prefer kentmere 400 as an all-around shooter film.

Yeah, but let’s be honest, it’s just gonna be another footnote in the history books assuming we have them in the future, of things that dis administration totally blew off and didn’t give a shit about and nobody actually did anything. we’re past the point where these guys care

It’s hilarious how canon still makes that exact same camera😂😂.

Yep, they’re not gonna let it fail, all the while they’re going to claim something about free markets.
