I'm looking for advice on what lens to bring with me on a hike this year to the top of Half Dome. I'm bringing my M and was thinking my 35 cron would be an ideal travel package w/ respect to weight, but wondering if this focal length will do the wide majestic background justice.
I started thinking maybe something wider would be better but at the same time, I will be shooting a lot of people in the group while up there and want a good mix of scenic background and people (don't want to get them too distorted). What do you all think?
If it does require something wider, I'll likely just try and rent it since this is a one-off trip so a particular lens recommendation would be helpful. Speed is definitely not going to be an issue as it'll be bright out and I want greater DOF to give the background some sharpness so my only real concern is focal length and weight.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
