Matthew, I like the highlight handling of the FE55 at shortish distances and how the combine with the DR of the latest Sony sensors - a lovely aesthetic esp for portraits.

Not that your other pics aren't fine, Gregg, but I absolutely love the last one! A wallhanger if you ask me!

Congrats to everyone for the great shots!!!
This afternoon I went for a walk in the garden and found a new fruit tree bearing Pitanga fruit. Apparently native to Brazil

Charles: Great pictures of these exotic berries/cherries (?). The 75 Lux's bokeh is beautiful. Did you shoot that one handheld? I found it impossible to focus the Lux (close to) wide open.
Bob: That orange sky lake shot on the previous page is worth ten likes. Really impressive.
Ryan: Since I happen to live in Japan too, do you mind telling me where that light house is? Chiba prefecture? Beautiful shot with excellent timing btw.
Gregg: That last one is indeed exceptional.
Werner: Your shots from the last 1-2 pages are extremely impressive, in particular the lightning. True works of art.
Tim: Great perspective on these ship shots. Initially, I thought they were taken with a wider lens, only at second glance I realized that it was "only" 28mm glass.
Here are a few from today. I used an external color calibration tool for the first time on my LCD today, so I was wondering whether anybody could tell whether those pictures looked OK or whether something was really off?

Chris,
Looking back over your last 4 or 5 posts in this thread, most of the pictures seem to have a bit of a cyan cast to them. I think these look better color balanced. The 16-35mm f4 shot was the only earlier one that didn't have the color cast.

Todd: Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. I thought that something was off. It's nice to hear that the color configuration seems to have improved things a bit. It did on my screen, but I wasn't sure how visible it's when viewed by others. Thanks again.
Btw, that second overhead snow goose shot is very impressive.

I don't have any experience with fast 28mm lenses, I'm more of a stopped down landscape shooter @ 28mm. One's that come to mind though are
Olympus OM 28mm f/2
Pentax 31mm f/1.8 Limited
Nikon 28mm f/1.8 G
Todd has already mentioned most of these...

I just got a Sony A7, and don't know if I should save up for the Sony FE 55mm, or just buy an old manual lens. Which one do you recommend for a wide old lens? What about a fast lens from 28mm to 40mm? F1.8 is fine.My 2 cents...
Manual lenses are fun, but take some practice as you drop to f1.8 or get to longer focal lengths. You'll struggle with moving kids, if that's your target. The A7 will struggle a bit with lower light and autofocus. The longer lenses work pretty good with focus peaking, but down in the 28-40mm range, I found peaking not very accurate and had to magnify or learn to use the lens distance scale (they generally aren't accurate unless you buy Novoflex adapters or maybe Kipon - higher cost ones that maintain infinity focus at the stop).
I preferred manual lenses...Show more →

Got out to shoot this morning in Hocking Hills. All A7II with FE 16-35 except the last one, which is with the FD 50/1.4.
