Fall Foliage with Fuji Medium Format RF

[bherman]

Hi All;

I have a Fuji GW670III with 90mm Lens (44mm equivalent in 35mm) and also a GSW690III with the 65mm lens (28mm equivalent in 35mm).

I'm going out for a brief trip to the Wayside Grist Mill in Sudbury, MA. The trees are pretty nice this time of year, and there is well...an old Grist Mill. All in all a very nice shoot.

Any recommendations on which on to take (taking both is not an option).

Thanks
Brad

Take the 90mm. You'll miss a couple of shots that would've worked great with the 65, but you'd miss a lot of shots that would've worked great with the 90. I've been getting some beautiful stuff with an SLR and 50mm prime. The colors this year are about an 8-9 on a scale of 10 here in CT. You might be slightly past peak in MA. Don't be afraid to go out if it's raining lightly. I got some great shots in the fog yesterday. Very nice effect. Have a ball!

I'd take the 90 if I truly could not find a way to take both. Articles in the press/media indicate the fall colors have been getting flat the last few years and the same is true this year as well. Climate change is mentioned as the culprit.
