SUVILAHTI SUVILAHTI

Suvilahti, Helsinki, Finland view map

These six photos are taken at Suvilahti (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suvilahti and also https://pbase.com/pekkal/image/168924748.jpg) with my new Nikkor Z 50mm f/1.8 S.

I traded away my Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 because for some reason I did not like it and I ended up barely using it. The main usage was for indoor low light, but for many shots that did not work too good, as the focus is really shallow (of course, that's what the f/1.4 is for). Also, I did not like the bokeh in those shots where the shallow focus worked. Instead of waiting for the Z 50mm f/1.2 (expensive, heavy & do I really need the f/1.2?) I got the f/1.8.

Playing with my new Z 50mm I quickly fell in love with it sharp, lack of reflections, 50mm focal length's naturalness ... let's see if this lasts.
