Keeping Cozy & Getting a Wider View with the #Canon85 f1.2L II (see below! β¬οΈ) #One2Watch #ShotOnCanon #Canon1DX #Speedlite600EXIIRT ~ The Canon 85 f1.2L II is definitely one of my favourite lenses. Itβs tack sharp wide open (f1.2), and super bright, so it works well in low light. But sometimes you want to capture a bit more of the scene, than an 85 focal length will allow. What do you do? The trick is to create a panorama (I used Adobe Lightroom), and capture more of the scene around your subject. I also bounced my Canon Speedlite 600EX II-RT flash, from an opposite wall, with the light orange colour filter installed to help balance the colour on Alice, as she had natural light from the windows and an overhead light on behind her, casting her with an orange glow. Building a panorama this way, with the specifications of focal length, f-stop, and final resolution of file, creates an effective focal length of 58mm at f0.8. Questions? Ask me below!
