Another 50mm f1.8 Thread

[susaan]

Love this lens/camera (1.8/ 40D ) combo- it shots in the dark (almost)

"Cheese" in a rare moment of repose.

My first weekend with my 50mm...I love it.
Calibrating a rifle with the target downrange.

I'm still in love with my 50mm

Fun fun pics Ali. That last one is a real killed. I do think she is following in her sister's footsteps. I do love it when you get the 50 out and come out to play.

Here are a couple of my grandson Wesley that were taken across the table in a dimly lighted restaurant with the 50mm f1.8.

From my cousin's wedding, I wasn't the official, but I stuck the sidelines and managed to squeeze off some great shots.

[Alison]

Thanks OT.
Yeah I love her eyes too. They are so dark you can't see the pupil!

I'm not sure my kids realise how lucky they are.
Their sister paints their faces ALL the time when she is here. Something that many children only get when they go to fair's/fete's. And then you have to pay a fortune for each child to have it done.

AND on top of that, my kids get a lovely portrait as a keepsake.

Having said that, I'm a lucky Mum to have so many beautiful willing models

Nice OT and Alison.
Glad this thread is still alive!

[Frog]

Glad you brought the thread back, Loupey. Nice stuff!

[Frog]

Nice shot, Loupey. Those eyes are going to slay some man one of these days.

Been a while since we had any activity in this thread. Nice one to get it going again.

New here but thought I'd through this one up. My first ever shot with a prime, sitting in the food court in the mall right outside of the cam shop. Not sure how to put pics up on a new thread from my gallery so re'uped it hope thats ok.

[frleal70]

Lovely! The DoF is fantastic!!

I dont know why I missed this thread! Here is my contribution which I posted in the Critique forum a while back...

[Nicci]

totally missed this thread.

Still learning how to work with my 50mm 1.8D but here are a few that I haven't posted in other threads.


Hi! I am watching you!
Obviously cropped from a larger pic that was complete rubbish.


That's lunch!


lol One for fun. Mud Mask Time.

[Nicci]

fab pics everyone! Too many to say individually.

Looks like this thread could use a bump...here's a few photos of Stephanie, one of our newest church members. She came over the house to help my wife with a project tonight and she let me take a few snaps on the fly.

XTi in manual mode, f/6.3 @ 1/80th, Alien Bee B800 with Octabox. I should have opened the lens a bit more as I had to up the brightness a little in my RAW converter.

Thanks for the bump Ray. It's hard to beat that niffty 50. Always get a kick out of your excellent post.

[Dave6223]

Here's mine. A favourite.

Our new puppy we brought into the family a month ago. Wanted to photograph him before he got even bigger.

Shot with the aforementioned lens this past Labor Day weekend.

[frleal70]

Great shots, everyone.

[Grandpaw]

Loupey, that is one cute little pup, Jeff

[Old Timer]

The 50 f1.8 and it's various cousins are wonderful for so many kinds of photography. I used mine last month to do a ton of available light shots at a wedding. Hope some more people will help revive this old thread with their 50mm shots.
