I'm going on a two week long intersession photography class with my university to Junction, Texas, which is a very rural, forest-y area.
Well, I have some extra cash to throw at some rented lust gear for the two weeks. I mean, it's not like I get to just take two weeks JUST TO TAKE PICTURES in an area that I wouldn't normally get to go to all the time.
So, my choices are either to rent a 5D Mark II with a 14mm f/2.8...
...or I can rent a 5D Mark II to use my 85mm and 24mm I rent the sigma 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 to use with my 60D.
I just want to say that the ultra-wides will most likely be used for landscape, so I'm not too worried about the f-stop difference. Which would you choose? Is 8mm (12.8ish mm on 1.6x crop) too wide to be really applicable, or does it open up a lot more creative possibilities than the 16mm?
