    Re: 50mm f/1.8 Lens War Thread

    I figured I'd better contribute to this thread once again....

    Here's one from today. She's a florist who just joined our chamber, and this photo will be going in our newsletter on the new member's page.

    Re: 50mm f/1.8 Lens War Thread

    Just got my lense a couple weeks ago after reading this thread. I only have a so-so picture to add but the little I've been doing has been revealing one great quality lense. Why can't all lenses in the cheaper realm be this good ? Anyway, shot 5.6 at 1/250 (I think). Slightly underexposed on purpose and then lightened up just a smidge.

    Sorry. Stamping my feet and pretending to cry like a kid who can't get their own way.

    And I wish my kids wouldn't do this to me...just when I think I have my favourite shot they give me another one :mad2:
    My walls just aren't big enough!!!

    Danielle, modelling her new glasses for me :thumbsup:
