This lens, is amazing, and I liken it to the 50 Summilux Asph, in its painterly rendering...somewhat. I will no doubt add it the 5DII lineup.

Wow! It's pretty rare that a lens renders OOF nettles pleasurably. That's somewhat of a statement! Nicely said too!

also, i'm afraid i need to issue a retraction - this shot i posted on page 7 was actually with the rokkor 24mm f/2.8 not the 50mm f/1.7.

sebboh,
Number 4 is pretty awesome!!!

Don't worry about the misplaced images. It's all good!

Here's a few more of the Rokkor 55/1.8 from yesterday (which was a rainy day ):

This little guy actually makes a pretty good lens for street photography too:

Luka: gret shots as usual. My favorite is 2nd with the bicycle. Though the mallard looks really cool!..
Just looking for a right deal 5D Classic, but ideally at some point I want to pick up 1DS MkIII...though it will come at the cost of some zeiss glas..:/

Sebboh: I thought that last shot was still a Rokkor? of course it belongs here. two last florals are really special - love the bokeh and the tonality. Feel sorry for the little bat..

Bif: Thank you mate! Your shots are really cool also. You will surely guess my favourite.. hehehe...How do you find focusing on moving subjects?

Well, I just spend a few minutes with the lens. If I like the lens it's easy to remember how much rotation I need for how much movement. This works except for macro or lenses with a really short focusing ring throw. I'm usually better (faster) than AF mechanisms anyway. The fact that I'm on a 2:1 crop sensor and looking thru a hi-res EVF might help a bit too.

Here's some like that doing BIFs on the 85/1.2L out in the rice patties yesterday:

I don't think anyone in the Wildlife forums likes them tho. Those guys just can't appreciate a meager kid with less than a 400mm.

Yeah that's Osu. I was there with my friend snapping up unsuspecting victims and getting her camera back from the shop.

Good captures Bifurcator, but you should ditch that toy camera and get a real one
