Hi!
Yes, that's an ongoing problem. Low-light focusing with a manual focus
lens. I recently purchased a homemade split screen, but it doesn't seem
to work well with my FA or DA lenses and autofocus. Any suggestions?
No real help there... I had to move completely to AF lenses...

It's too soft and seems to lack a little something to make it "pop".
I'm not one to be very technical about what you can do in PS or whatever but

Hi all,
During my vacations I bought a F35-135mm 3.5-4.5 in an old shop to an old
guy, in Andorra.
As I said before it is a brand new lens with more or less 15 years old.
So here is one shot taken in Bilbao Spain.
Comments are
Very nice "hot summer in the city" picture. Very well executed. The children
interacting with the water and each other, beautiful.

Nice, Glen. You got just the right time of day.

Interesting image. It almost looks like an illustration to me. What post

Excellent! In the near perfection of the square and the bright colors in which
it's rendered, it has an almost surreal quality to it. Great shot, well
