Is that shot at larger aperture? If so that is SHARP!

Noct is very sharp wide open, especially at the center.

Ah. . . these fast lenses are great! Nice shots from everyone.

I'm still in love with my 50/1.2L, and voted it as my top choice in a recent FM Canon forum poll as the lens I have a love affair with.

Decided to try on the APS-H format 1D3, since I usually use this on FF. Here are some interior close-ups, all shot with ambient light.

Mild PP in LR5.

Here are some exterior shots in blazing morning light (we're setting heat records here in L.A. area!).

near the shuk, Jerusalem


I had spent all day calibrating the focus of my 50L on my 5D3 and then took it out to shoot. An annoying thing about the 5D3 is that you don't see the focus point light up so you just have to assume that focus was achieved. What I didn't realise then was that the lens was still on manual focus from the testing when I took this shot. Got very lucky hitting focus by mistake at f1.2!

I've taken the time to browse through most of this thread on the weekends... lots and lots of fabulous shots, even though it's very far removed from what I was doing photography-wise. Proves that while it's not the lens that makes the photo... sometimes a tiny bit of help is necessary from the lens.

Hats off to everyone! Keep the good work coming!

The work posted here is just outstanding.

So much so that i am now looking at whats available on ebay.
dont know if i should be thanking you guys though. Seems like f1.2 can become a bit of an obsession.

I will be shooting on Nex 5n and Omd Em1 (When it finally becomes available here).
Any suggestions?

The lowly Nikon V1 (CX sensor) and 32/1.2 lens. Maximum shutter speed is 1/16,000 sec which allows daytime shooting wide open. This one at 1/10,000 sec.
