Hi guys,
I'll try to make it short. Before posting this I searched the forum for something similar. I wasn't able to find the answer.
The situation is the following: I am a product photographer. Often I have products that have a very fine texture. For example clothing (fabric texture) or the latest one - matcha powder.
I am using a K1 mark 1 with
1. SMC Pentax-F 50mm F2.8 Macro
2. SMC Pentax-F 100mm F2.8 Macro
I know matcha is a very fine powder, still often I have a feeling I should get more details, a higher detalization.
The question is: Do you think changing the old SMC Pentax-F 50mm F2.8 Macro to the new HD Pentax-D FA* 50mm F1.4 SDM AW will change anything? Both these lenses have a 10 for sharpness.
Same thing with 100mm: Do you think changing the old SMC Pentax-F 100mm F2.8 Macro to the new SMC Pentax-D FA 100mm F2.8 Macro WR will change anything? Both these lenses have a 9.8 for sharpness.
To conclude, do you think that using the same camera, same lighting, f-stop, etc... but with newer lenses will increase the detalization of my images?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
