Just a very tight shot. Tire is still in the frame.

Wow David, didn't know you can take pictures like that. Since when did you get into photography?
My wife wanted to have good photos of the kids, and we needed better photos to document genealogy, so I went out and got a D5100, and a couple of lenses, then just keep expanding. Just added a Nikon 35mm film setup in the last few days - N70 w/ Tokina 19-35, Tamron 28-200 (A03), and Nikkor 50 1.8. I've shot over 5,000 shots in the past 2 months, including 3 photobooks and a DVD. I've been doing some video editing also, but all of it is mostly family stuff, and not what I would post publically.

Memorial Hall at Stone Mountain Park. See mountain reflected in glass.
Bought the Sigma, took it down to Stone Mountain to see how it worked in reduced light. This was taken late in the afternoon, after the sun had gone behind the mountain.
Slight curve at the edges due to the lens, very little falloff at f/7.1.

Slightly bigger and heavier rock.

I'd love to get into photography as seeing all of these great shots keeps fueling that fire. Just way too expensive for me right now.
Start cheap. Get an older 35mm film camera, and then a couple of used lenses, then add reflectors, then flashes. I have a Nikon N70 that I like to shoot some. Wolf, CVS, Walgreens, etc, all convert to CD cheap, but you can send to North Coast Photo in Carlsbad, CA, to get 25MP scans (better than most professional digital cameras).
Yeah my buddy's wife shoots 35mm now and she said it wasn't all that expensive to begin with. I just want to finish up my car and then get the bike under the knife so I can be finished with both. Maybe then I will consider it.

Is that wide open? How do you like it compared to the Nikon 50 1.8g?Quote:

I might have to get me one of these. Have you played with it stopped down any? Past F7 or f8?
I'm looking to get an 85mm f/1.4 manual next. I love fast glass.
I know it's razor sharp at 2.0-5.6. I have a basketball team to shoot tomorrow so I will have a answer tomorrow.Quote:
