The second chronologically that I shot and the first that I made with the Letus Ultimate prototype.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn\u2019t planning on going out to film as I had spend the entire previous day in Death Valley getting some lovely footage with the Extreme but Hien arrived in Vegas the previous night so I had to try it out.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We went, thanks to Nathaniel Hansen\u2019s recommendation to Red Rock Canyon, about 30 minutes out of town. This was the first time Hien had been out to watch someone film with his adaptor so it was quite exciting for him&#8230;I think!<\/p>\n<p>The Ultimate performed really well. There were one or two shots that weren\u2019t perfect edge to edge due to me zooming too much into the ground glass to get that extra bit of the lens, not good for flat surfaces or where the focal length is identical all the way across like it was here, infinity.<\/p>\n<p>I was able to stop right down when pointing at the sun and able to widen the depth of field enormously for certain shots like the opening one. A couple of shots had high shutter in but you wouldn\u2019t know!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-189 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/red-red-rocks\/dsc01140\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-src=\"https:\/\/philipbloom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/dsc01140-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload\" alt=\"\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px;
