i like this one a lot. the light was great, and the lens did well. is this cropped? or was it from very close range? the oof background looks very nice

calicojack · 04-10-2009, 04:37 PM

I prefer the vivid yet delicate range of reds in the previous shot.

it's nice too, but the truth is i am a sucker for the common sparrow

Yes, a big crop. Yes, I believe a "common sparrow" is its name and I prefer this shot myself. Thanks Nanok.

I appreciate your comments--thanks.

I was really hoping to get others to post some MF images on DSLRs here too---ANYONE out there?

Hey, thanks Feverbeaver for the pics. That first one has some very nice light, and shows off the sharpness of the 75mm well.

Those are very beautiful images. I particularly like the composition in the first one, with the dark, waterlogged wood in the foreground, contrasted with the softness of water in the background--very, very nice.

I can't get EXIF data, but am assuming you used a large aperture for this shot? I have read the Biometar 80.2.8 is excellent--is this a shot with it wide open?

nanok · 04-13-2009, 05:29 AM

no, not wide open for sure, more like f8 or so. in my quick and dirty tests, it was ...well.. let's just say not the sharpest lens in the arsenal, wide open, but in any other case, it shines (i have to test again though, because i have read reviews stating it is not bad at all wide open).

glad you like that shot, you described it just as i composed it in my mind before shooting, that was the exact point with that shot

. seems i managed to pull it through

Jewelltrail · 04-13-2009, 11:13 PM

The first shot is the 165mm wide open and the second one is @ f11.
