RoadconeTuning Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #1 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 i just bought this lens the other day and just started to mess with it really tonight. and i noticed what looks like, what i would call, ghosting of the letters on the lens itself. Jan 09, 2008 at 03:01 AM

jmcfadden Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #2 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 well more testing is in order then to nail down the issue, not really a whole lot can be determined with this image really. put it on a pod , use a flash to illuminate a target and see if the ghosting is present welcome to FM J Jan 09, 2008 at 03:16 AM

RoadconeTuning Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #3 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 is what im seeing possibly considered ghosting as its pretty much streaking the letters radially... Jan 09, 2008 at 03:20 AM

jmcfadden Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #4 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 yes but you must take into consideration that you are handholding I have seen motion blur do weird things as well as incident light crossing the front element , what f stop was this at .

Zachs Offline Image Upload: On p.1 #5 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 the 28 2.8 AF is not the best lens in the line up. It is however a good lens when stopped down. The AIS version is much much better. My 28 AF is nothing more than just a good cheap small "just in case" lens. Jan 09, 2008 at 03:26 AM

grmedhat1 Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #6 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 Welcome to FM. As mentioned do some more testing. As for this shot the ghosting could be your reflection off the glass on the front surface of the mirror. The silvered mirror surface is on the back of the glass thus the double reflection. Or it could be something else. Edited on Jan 09, 2008 at 03:32 AM Jan 09, 2008 at 03:29 AM

R. Francois Online Image Upload: Off p.1 #7 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 i can see the "ghosting" around the nikon letters and your fingers too. make sure it is not motionblur, can you make the same kind of test with the camera on a tripod or something like that? Jan 09, 2008 at 01:18 PM

bellyface Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #8 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 I see a little motion blur... I've never seen any ghosting with my old 28. you should post some more pics to determine the artifact. Jan 09, 2008 at 02:00 PM

Donald Lynd Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #9 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 looks like motion blur. Jan 09, 2008 at 04:01 PM

George61d Online Image Upload: Off p.1 #10 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 well call me stupid but looking at the dust it seems to me that you have a filter on the front of the lens and that the double image you see in the writing there is nothing more than the reflection off the back of the filter.

Taylor Barrett Online Buy and Sell: On p.1 #11 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 Its clearly motion blur. Look at your fingers. You shook the camera... put it on a tripod and see if it "ghosts" Edited on Jul 17, 2008 at 05:39 AM Jul 17, 2008 at 05:39 AM

ytwong Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #12 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 if you look hard at the mirror you can see "ghosting" too, even without camera/lens, go figure Jul 17, 2008 at 08:21 AM

90 5.0 Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #13 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 +1 I think it look like motion blur to me as well, the efix is removed so i cannot see what the shutter speed is but since tyou are inside with out any additional lighting i am going to guess it's slow. If you look to the left side of me in this picture you can see some "Ghosting" hahaha This is in the theater district in downtown Houston, looks like a theater mask ghost to all that I have shown it too.

Or it could be something else. Exactly what I was going to say. You can see similar characteristics when photographing through double-paned glass. Jul 17, 2008 at 01:47 PM

panos.v Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #15 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 Try another shot of something normal, not reflection of the camera in a mirror. As said it is probably a double reflection off the mirror. Jul 17, 2008 at 01:48 PM

BenV Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #16 · Ghosting with 28mm f/2.8 shooting into a mirror probably isnt the best way to test a lens, it likes to throw off "things" Jul 17, 2008 at 02:12 PM
