stempsons,

Nice photos, however not "Alt" per se (unless the lens is FD 85/1.2 L, converted to EF?)

for the purposes of this thread (i'm the OP) i wanted to allow canon and nikon f/1.2 lenses as well so we could compare them to their alt brethren.

My apologies, I just clicked on the front page, and didn't even notice what forum this was. just saw the "f/1.2 or faster lenses wide open" and posted. Looks like the OP is cool with the post though...

i figured since the question of fast lenses and which are sharpest/have the best bokeh/will magically make me a decent photographer comes up a lot we should just start a thread showing examples from all our ultrafast lenses wide open to direct people to. so post any images you have from an f/1.2 or faster lens wide open even if it's not alt (for comparison purposes). please also post what format (e.g. 4/3, aps-c, FF, truck camera)

for reference there was a similar thread a while ago:
