Re: Amature
Hi! Hey everyone thank you for all your quick and extremely informative responses. Just wanted to introduce myself a little more I've only just began to work with DSLR's and I'm a poor college student :-(. So after all your advice, I definately want the 50/1.4 FA lens... but don't have $200 to spend right now. The only lens I have right now is the kit lens that came with my ist DL, which isn't bad. Once again, thank you for all your responses. If you care to look at my amature photography, I've posted my best pictures so far at: http://dapjang.deviantart.com/gallery/ Great stuff!!! Some really good photography... So it does not really matter which term you apply to yourself... It really does not matter... Boris

I particularly like the pan job you did on "Caught in Motion". I'm useless at panning. FYI, I bought an A50 f/1.4 just recently, and love it. if I could have found an FA, I would have bought it. Mind you, after using the kit lens and a cheap Tamron zoom, I thought I was just bad at manual focus (blamed it on my eyes), but it turns out that I *can* manually focus reasonably well, as long as it's with a bright lens. For instance, I'm not sure that the effect I got on this shot is successful, but I did manage to focus on approximately what I wanted: http://forksandhope.com/Africa/IMGP5294-Kilimanjaro-Protea.jpg If you're short on cash, you might consider an A50 f1.7 or f/2.0, which aren't that hard to be had on ebay or keh, and are of very high quality. jp -- Jon Paul Schelter http://forksandhope.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] "This isn't right, it isn't even wrong."

Re: Amature
Sonny, lovely stuff! You've made some wonderful images there. About the lens, I know everyone raves about the 50/1.4 primes (with reason), but I got the FA 50mm/1.7 for two reasons: it weighs two ounces less than the 1.4 (minimizing weight is important to me), and I only paid about $90 for a near mint lens on ebay, about 9 months ago. Keep posting pictures, thanks! *>UncaMikey
RE: Amature
Some beautiful work Sunny. You've proven once again that it's more the eye behind the lens than the lens itself that counts.

RE: Amature
Hi Sunny, I like your style! There are a lot of shots I see there that are unusually composed, yet beautiful, even of subjects I would not normally like. Thanks for showing them. It makes me think.
