It is harder than I thought. Turns out the 24 mm field of view speaks to me, and I have to force myself to remember that I wanted to zoom in when I post process. So I have virtual copies with 2x and 4 x, along with the full field. I'm learning though, that what you see through the viewfinder really influences the way you compose in the moment, more so than the way you can crop in afterwards. It's been an interesting experiment and it's not done yet.
My dad photography teacher long ago in college taught that we make a better intuitive crop in the camera than on the enlarger or computer now. I donтАЩt adhere to it all the time but most of the time I think he was right.
Personally I'd find that impossible... I just cannot throw away my glorious pixels or film real estate. ;-)
Oh I agree, I never crop the original, I always make a copy and crop that so those pixels will live on.

Maybe the Leica Q3 is the camera you're destined for ;-)
That was the inspiration, and why IтАЩm keeping the 24mm prime for those occasions when I want to be unobtrusive

IтАЩve come to the conclusion that he was right. Although I love my 24mm prime, I recently moved to a 20-70 Zoom as my daily carry.
