I think I remember this image. It's from a series of images taken when Daniel Buck introduced the extreme wide angle shallow DOF multi stitch mosaics, no?


Yes, exactly. That was back in the days when he still had a Mustang That original series is still one of the best. I wanted to do something different with it though, as in the portrait image. I also did some macros with it, but in the end, macro photography has so little DoF anyway, that it just ended up being more work than needed. Here is one example, from around the same time. Leica Macro-Elmar-M 90mm f/4, 100 images stitched (!). This lens, although I found it too slow and fiddly, and sold it, has really gorgeous, smooth boke:

Yes, it took me by surprise. I have never seen this from this lens before or since. Weird.

Wow thats a beautiful shot mate! Amazing colors and great composition and i love the bokeh!

It almost needs a tiny bit more dof to get that one little bunch of flowers near the midle in focus but that's a minor complaint

Yes love my 85L too on my 1ds3 and my old 5D.
A very sweet portrait lens indeed.
Just weird having AF and not shooting in stop-down mode as
I am shooting mostly alt glass now.

Very nice. FD or EF version? There is quite a bit of DOF .... I am guessing f2.8?

My better half says it is a Clivia something, with the lens quite close and set to f/2.8.

Jonas,

You are making a case for me to add another Oly to my bag.

Is it just me, or does it look a little Zeiss-like and a little Leica-like at the same time?

Thank you burningheart. That's a very nice comment. Sometimes we can find a nice motif in the home.

RustyBug, isn't it easier and cheaper to just buy the flower and a nice pot?

Any decent macro lens should do... I would say the Zuiko OM50/2 is a good lens. Resolution is good to very good while macro contrast is medium, decent bokeh (good for an Olympus), decent CA levels, good mechanical build and fast for a macro. Hmm, not bad at all really.

What you see in the image above is the result from some local contrast enhancement and local sharpening only. A tripod, articulating LCD screen and no mirror flap also helped.

regards, /Jonas
