Thanks Rick.

I did the same shot with 3 fine lenses. The Zeiss Loxia 21 as shown, the Zeiss Batis 25mm and the Nikon 14-24 (my standard long term nightscape lens).

The Loxia is the finest lens for this type of shot I have used. The Zeiss Batis 25 is close to it as well. 21mm means perhaps 2 extra images to match a 14-24 panorama shot at 14mm but less distortion and keeps the round stars.

Zeiss lenses are often hard to beat. They are the Astrophysics of the camera lens world.

Greg.
