Ya, some of those videos of the inferno people had to evacuate through to get out of town was unreal! Feel horrible for the people who are displaced and even worse for those that won't have a home to return to! Downturn in oil was bad enough for that community, then you add this on top of it!

Some more '58mm does CrossFit' shots.

Due to close quarters - I continue to use this more than the 24/1.4 or the 85/1.4. Again - confirming that - I need to commit to just taking one body with this lens and go from there versus bringing all this other crap.

Anyways - masters team competition.

Thanks for looking.

JC

PS...I have noticed that my OOF shots have increased, so will be reviewing my technique to ensure I'm getting the most performance from this lens. I'm aware this is not the ideal low-light, action-based lens...so will make some adjustments as needed to help increase keeper rate.

Thanks, I think I'm definitely starting to get the hang of this lens. For those of you who are just starting with it, don't be discouraged. This lens is different but it's actually really exciting to work on finding out its strengths.

Indeed! Great idea!

How did you do the "bokeh droplets", is that rain or did you use a spray can?

Absolute loving the 58. The FL is just perfect. Lots more versatile than my 85, which is now lonely.

My niece was going to prom yesterday so I went and snapped a few of her with the 58.... This lens is amazing to me.... I can't seem to take it off of my d810.

I'm still new to this lens, but so far I think I like it more than my old 50/1.4 and the 85/1.4 G...

It does look washed out here, but looks fine on my other devices for some reason.

Also, sorry for the dimensions, I'm posting from my iphone and can't figure out a way to resize it...

Wow, that bokeh... great transitions!

I'm not sure if it's overexposed, but I also see a kind of "glow" on her forehead and eyes.

BTW, on the iPhone there's a nice app called "Photogene" that will let you save resized versions of photos (and do adjustments, but I don't do that on the Phone ).
