Great shots everyone
John, particularly beautiful shot of you wife with the 35 Lux Asph! # 2 is superb
There are windows all around, so it produced a nice softbox effect and that worked well with the 35 Lux ASPH's contrast. It'll be interesting to see some side by side bokeh comparisons with the new 35 Lux FLE.
Some from my first outing with the S-M-C Takumar 50 1.4. I tried to capture some different sorts of blur, blowing the background away as well as showing the in focus to OOF transition.
Just thought I'd buy one to see what all the MF and alt lenses fuss is about... I kinda love it in the slightly stopped down range, but still having some trouble combining metering and MF with stopping down.
The f/5.6 shot came out 2 stops overexposed, but managed to pull it down in lightroom. More practice needed!
