My next shoot I'm gonna mess with some 3-8 shot Brenizer method photos with the 58 to try and really push the MF feel. We'll see how it goes.


Won't work, from personal experience. I've tried it. The biggest problem is the bokeh shape; it goes all over the place. Here's an example I did last year:

Sam Hurd does it, but mostly portraits against very plain backgrounds.

Little girl has been very anti-camera lately hence my lack of photos lately, plus, with #2 coming any day now and a new project truck I've been busy as hell doing everything I can around the house and with the little one before it's newborn time.

Anyday now she'll blow

Haven't been around these parts in a while, since my Sigma 35 Art was distracting me. But I've found my way back home to my trusty 58.

Thanks! Yeah, believe it or not, this was a wide open shot too. I guess directional window lighting (for more contrast) in conjunction with live view manual focusing can make all the difference with this lens. And a really really red blanket, lol.

Elijah love the first 2, that last one could do with out the matte. I used to be a huge matte fan but lately no matte = thumbs up

that first one is so solid... love the tones in it.. very awesome.

I like both of them. I'm a bit of a sucker for higher contrast though!

Few shots of the kids. Been a busy summer for me so far but on the downswing now.

I don't think many would have dared to shoot this kind of shot at f/1.4
