Kirislin Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) So many of us have these beautiful lenses now, I know I was largely influenced by the brilliant photographs I've seen here. some of you should get a commission from the camera shops I reckon. anyway how about us newbies posting some of our pics here in one thread. These were all taken the day I got it. Oh yeah, I haven't even shot in RAW as yet, suppose I should start someday, for some reason I am a bit intimidated, I dont know what to expect.

TerraNik Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Wow, great photos!!!! I have been learning to use my OH's camera for the past week. Before that I had never taken it off 'auto'!!!!!!! I made it my holiday goal to learn how to use the camera properly! Anyway, I just so happened to whip out his 50mm lens this morning... Of course my subjects are always the dogs! Edited December 18, 2008 by TerraNik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iltby Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Awesome shots! I especially like the first. Love yours too, Terra. I've been feeling completely uninspired lately, everything I take seems really boring or simply bad. There's so much to learn too, it's really overwhelming!

Kirislin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Oh Terranik they're lovely. I really like the first one. Mine are almost always dogs too, that's why I posted the flower shots, cause I've posted nearly all the dog ones here already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chloes Dad Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I took this about 2 hours ago I had it at about f5 ISO 200 and shutter of 1200(ish) the focal point is a bit off but i just love the timing of this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) wow, what a versatile lens! love the action shot but the arty ones are just a good and Ruthless yes post them, I just hoped everyone would post all the different pics this lens can take. I think those ones of yours are the kind that influenced me to buy this lens. see here my Puck, I think even had yours in mind when I took this.

Yep, same here. I think when I was pricing them HN offered it for $134?? I might have written it in a post. I will check for you. found it, $136 was the best. maybe you can use that as a bargaining point. good luck http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?showtopic=153041 Edited December 18, 2008 by Kirislin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirislin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Here's some more of my crazy boy Puck and his bro Tag It was all happening pretty fast so not the best focus, but they show his fun personality. well if you wont chase me I'm gonna dig this hole, I dare you to take it off me!
