zhangp - those blur shots are transcendant and subversive in the best sense of the words. Who needs to pixel peep

Andi; I am sure you took her (mädchen mit propeller) under your wings...

BTW: it is not my bank account number in the cat's ear: it is the amount of money I spent on therapy after your jokes...

Dergiman: thanks, she was sitting on the couch (she usually lies down, wish I could say flat but she is really quite chubby ) and the light was fading fast.

Great photos everyone. This thread continues to be an inspiration. Those Autumn leaf shots are amazing. I also love the one of the fella smoking with a spare behind his ear and a packet under his sleeve.




This cat shot illustrates everything that is wonderful about that lens. Fantastic rich colour, sharpness, beautiful bokeh, even illumination, great contrast - technically it is just an amazing lens. But how does it manage to have no 3D effect at all? It's weird. Flat as a pancake. I couldn't avoid this flatness with my 180 f2. To me, it just shows how lenses have character. You need to shoot a lens before you know if you like the results.

Yesterday's shoot. 1D3, Zeiss 35 f1.4, iso 800:

just to keep the autumn theme going:

5D+90cron (donīt stare too long, it will make you dizzy!!!)

Brainiac: I don't think the APO Elmarit can produce the same pop as the Summicron, but I think I can lure out some three-dee out of it, the sample was taken under very dull lighting conditions.

It will be interesting to see how it compares to the EF 135/2L I also have, which I have to say is a great lens with nice pop and bokeh.

Dergiman: I haven't had time for the outdoors and just about as I was gonna go out and shoot me some autumn shots it looks like winter beat me to it - this morning is dull and that dreadful white crust.

Contax 24-85mm N + eos 5D + alternative shooting style:

How do you go about fitting hasselblad lenses onto a canon DSLR?
