Lens

Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens

Affordable ultrawide-angle that doesn’t compromise image quality, in an impressively well-built housing.
— Lance
My go-to prime lens for shooting at night. I love that I can click into infinity without even having to look at the lens.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.4G Lens

The nifty fifty. Can live without it. A fast all purpose lens.
— Tim
I love making images with this lens. I’ve owned two, dropped one (grin). I started experimenting with near focusing at wide aperture and doing long exposures. Nice bokeh. Like.

Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED

I love this lens. They say it is the sharpest wide angle zoom made. I believe it. The wide 14mm captures huge sections of the sky
— Tim
This lens doesn’t come off my D750 – so sharp, fast, and fills the frame with all my night needs.

Lomography New Petzval 85 Art Lens

An odd lens and an odd focal length for NPy, but when used properly for portraits, it creates a stand-out visual difference at wide apertures and repeating backgrounds.
