All,
I'm off to finally get to the Rain Room exhibit that's been traveling to various US art museums. Basically, via sensors, you can walk in the rain and (more or less) not get wet.
On the odd chance that anyone has been to this exhibit, could anyone recommend the appropriate glass to put on my 5D3? I ask as you only get a limited time window in there to shoot and I don't want to waste any of it changing out lenses.
Rules at this incarnation of the installation: cameras are welcome, but no tripods/monopods/supports and no flash. The sensors are not guaranteed to keep my gear dry, either.
A fast (and sealed) prime would seem to be the best option, but none of those that I own are sealed. I'm leaning towards the 16-35 f/4L IS for sealing, but an f/4 lens will drive atmospheric ISO levels to freeze the raindrops.
Ideas? I don't want to bag up my 35 f/2 IS or 50 f/1.4 for this unless it's absolutely necessary.
