Great images on this page. A lurker on this thread until I sold a couple of lenses and picked up the DFA 50. Today was my first opportunity to take it out. Here are a couple from my walkabout all at f1.4.

mucking about at f1.4

Sundown nice image. love the bokeh and the cute kitty.
Back to the same park but out a little earlier. Here are a few more at f1.4. Still trying to figure out how it renders at that aperture. The more I mess around the more I love this lens.

Bumping this thread. Still messing around with shooting at f1.4. I will say i am totally impressed with the images it produces wide open. It has been kind of a revelation.

This lens now seems to spend more time on my camera than any other. Great images stopped down as well as wide open

Bumping this thread again. Cross posted. I got out too late today and the conditions were not what I wanted so it was a nice hike instead.

Lowell, AZ

I'm starting to find some applications where I really like what this lens can do. One of them is shooting old vintage items like the cars and storefronts of Erie St. in Lowell, AZ. The scenes don't appear to be too far removed from the way they must've looked back in the 1950s and I really like the way the B&W conversions come out.
