Originally posted by photogerald The FA31 Ltd deserves mention as I can see its special rendering here, however it appears that focus here was on the statue's nose, and it might've delivered better results had the focus been on the eyes.
Yes, I thought that too. Compared to the others the image looks front-focused and a comparable focus point would probably have resulted in a more impressive image.
Too bad, that the K50/1.2 shot has yet another focus plane. Makes it harder to compare.
While one can still compare the background bokeh, I think feature of a lens is how well it separates the subject from the background. For this the relative sharpness/contrast is important but can only be compared if the same focus point is used consistently.
This is not to criticise your effort, Voe, on the contrary it is fantastic to see your series. Just an explanation as to why the FA 31mm shot may not look as good as it might have.
