Approaching the Scene 106: The Nikon 20mm 1.8 Z, The Milky Way & Portland Protests

(Links Below) I finally got a chance to try out the new Nikon 20mm 1.8 Z lens in good Milky Way conditions as well as test my iOptron star tracker. I'll show you why the two combined for the highest quality Milky Way work I've done yet. A lot of you have been asking if my family is OK with all the unrest in Portland. Here at our house, you'd never know anything unusual is happening. To see what's going on myself, I put on double masks and went down to the federal buildings. I'll give you a report on what I saw happening. At the end of the video I also announce a photo contest for ON1 Plus members in August sponsored by my friends at F-stop.
