Looks good, dd! Fun lens, huh?


Ran across this 50-135 snapshot that I had overlooked before because
he wasn't in the center of the frame, or something...

135mm f/3.5, no PP except slight contrast adjustment in picasa. Love the
sharpness in the eyes, and the 3-D effect from the specular highlights and the
contrast between center sharpness and the fade to bokeh. And the skin
just has a perfect luster.

Who needs an FA* 85 1.4 for portraits?
