Great photo!

A warning though, I've already had 2 people break the AF ring of that lens (you turn it, but it doesn't turn) so becareful

very good!
i'm thinking about buying the cheaper f1.8 50mm.. is the fixed 50mm any good? is it useful to things other than portraits?

Maegondo In reply to DorGreen [2011-03-07 18:46:25 +0000 UTC]

i love the fixed 50mm! it's perfect for my photo compositions . All photos in this album are shot with a 50mm lens: Link But you should buy the 1.4. I had the 1.8 too but the sharpness and the bokeh of the 1.4 are way more better, it's really worth the money!

DorGreen In reply to Maegondo [2011-03-07 20:02:08 +0000 UTC]

well, of course it's better - it costs double.
I hardly got the money for my 500D + kit lens, but that lens is totally lame. I'm looking for something cheap and better performance (sharpness, F\stops distortion ect.).
prime 50mm lens is a natural move from here

Maegondo In reply to DorGreen [2011-03-07 20:28:20 +0000 UTC]

well, i shot nearly all of the photos in the mentioned gallery with the 50mm 1.8, excepting the newest one. So if the sharpness is enough for you, there's no reason for not buying it!

DorGreen In reply to Maegondo [2011-03-07 20:44:22 +0000 UTC]

yes, it is sharp enough
I think I'll buy it

If money is tight, you might consider bying an adapter for M42 lenses which would open a whole new world of different (old) lenses to you. Manual only though! No autofocus, no auto ISO, shutterspeed or aperture. Good for learning though! Something like that [link] (adapter) then search for your desired lens. I took that photo [link] and that one [link] with an old M42 screwmount lens I got off my mother's old Yashica Happy hunting!

DorGreen In reply to woodfaery [2011-03-11 20:08:55 +0000 UTC]

I was shoting only full manual for the first month, to get to know the camera and to better understand shutter speed, aperture, ISO ect. I still shot full manual a lot, or semi-auto ("Av" mode and "Tv" mode)

That is a very good advice! I'll give it a try. Old lenses is something I always loved
I just bought (really just now, like five hours ago) a nice 50mm 1.8. I wanted the sigma 70-300, but it was out of stock.. the rest of the telephoto line at that price point were lame, so I got myself the sharpest lens I could find^^ so for now I'm done with new lenses (FOR NOW..)
