December 8 2006

Just a quick shot to test my new (to me) MF Nikkor 50mm f/1.4. It's a winner! I love the bokeh and
thin DoF. I picked it up off eBay from fellow Pbase friend Pierre Rousseau who is upgrading his collection
to AF lenses. I initially bid on it to help generate some interest, then realized that it would be a
great addition to my kit. Long story short, I fell victim to NAS again!

great shot! I have the canon 50mm 1.4 and love the images. Be careful taking portraits as I have messed up with too narrow DOF and gotten one eye in focus and the other out of ofocus. I usually stay at 1.8 if I am tight. But here it looks like you nailed it!
