Tommyx, he is so very photogenic, I really like this set, especially the first and last.

Yasik, I think this is a first class portrait, and like the fact that it is in these colours and not b&w.

Simon, great composition, the eye is really led from bottom left, up along the diagonal. Nice colour treatment.

Lovely! I really like this one. In fact, all the photos in this thread are very nice. The DA* 55 is truly a real gem.

Lovely set trickletreat.
It seems pbase (or at least mine) has some problems because my recently posted shots (even in another threads) are not showing...

Cheers chap, I thought I hadn't seen many of yours, there being two possible reasons...1. sold your 55 and or bought a new precious

and busy getting to grips.

No worries Nigel, I'm still around...

Thanks Simon. I did a +10 in AF adjustment. However the 55 still seem to be backfocusing

for some reason the 55s seem all to be tuned to backfocus... I haven't heard of one (yet) that needed less than +5 adjustment. And most people that stated their experience seem to agree that between +7 and +9 is the usual requirement for DA*55... make one wonder

I tried shooting with 0 and +10. The number of keepers seems consistent.
However the BF is obvious when i do a focus test.

DA*55 wide open

Adam turns 1 yesterday accordingly to the chinese lunar calender.

DA50-135 does pretty well for fast pace sport such as ice hockey in the NHL

Nothing about fast pace but stil nice for portait

I know you say there may not be a lot of realism in your photographs, but I beg to differ. Your pictures are the ones many will dream to take, but either don't see the image possibility, or having seen it, have the skill or effort to take the shot. Your link is amazing.

I agree re the family shots, especially where the photographer has captured a look he may see often, and created a family life image.
