Does it block popup d700 flash? The 24mm on my 24-70 does when I try to use it for cls and two sb900s

Ryan, so this the reason you sold your M gear? .. dont' blame you though.. the 24 1.4 is a very nice glass judging from the pics here. You would have to pay 3x more for the Leica equivalent


This and an upcoming Zeiss 35 f/1.4 ...what I had in Leica I could buy both and still have money left over

@ Phillip: so, the flash, manual, on the wall behind the couple, blocked by them, and ambient for the couple themselves? Or did you have a front light too?

Very nice effect.

Zero ambient in that cold. dark cellar. It was from my on-board flash bouncing up and spilling forward just enough.

Masterful, my friend. But 'pro' cameras don't have on-board flashes, didn't you know?

Funny thing is though, I use mine all the time!

What did you use to bounce up and forward?

Wow. Seems like there's plenty of "pop" to the images.
Great. I am looking forward to using my newly acquired 24!

Nice shots Phillip! I like the first one the best but the other abandoned building shots are good too.
Hopefully, I will get some time to post some tonight.
Ryan, look forward to seeing your shots too.
Just ordered my Nikon-EOS G adapter from 16-9 so hopefully I will have that soon so I can shoot the lens at apertures other than wide open, even though it is addicting to shoot this lens wide open.

Alright....here is just a few that I got off today. Of course, all wide open Wide open I notice that it overexposes by about 2 stops....you guys have the same issue? Plenty sharp, thats for sure!

few more notes, focus is EXTREMELY slow, when you guys say slow you are giving it a compliment . Focus is extremely accurate for me. Never misfocused once.

and 1.4 is more like 1.2 in that even the slightest movement means you missed it. Continuous af is highly recommended hand-held.....

Heck yeah, Ryan! Excellent first shots. I hope you slept with the lens right next to you last night.

P.S. It is REAL fun shooting with it at night

Nice images all. It seems to me, that this lens produces a lot of "3d" images, or is it just me

Not so sure about the 3D look....but then again I come from shooting mostly Zeiss and coming from this forum that truly does show 3D IMO. We had a recent discussion on this topic in another thread here....don't know if I can stand getting into another discussion about that. We will leave this to 24 f/1.4 love

Ups, didnt even think about that it could start a (long) discussion about that subject

I was just curious to learn about this lens, but never mind my question.
