Nice portraits yeatzee

Pentax K-5 + Cosina 55mm f1.2

yeatzee · 08-11-2011, 03:09 PM

Thanks, im not a portrait guy (personally I hate them) but we were just screwing around

I've got a bokeh panorama that actually "worked" im finishing right now

The composition sucks and the framing is not very good but its still an accomplishment that im pleased with.

edit:

here's a SOC shot, one of the 18 used

Nice pano, yeatzee. I have had it in my mind to try a bokeh panorama with my Cosina 55/1.2 for quite a while now, but haven't gotten around to it. I suspect it will turn out weird, because of the funky bokeh shapes and coma around the periphery of each frame that comes naturally with that lens.

Thanks. Give it a try and post here!

Another Bokeh panorama, this time 13 images @ F/1.2 and from a further distance from the infocus subject. Im going to try my F 135mm @ F/2.8 next and see if that works better with less distortion (and maybe more bokeh?). Im also going to start shooting inanimate ones from a far corner of the completed image (i.e. where the top right *will be*) so my images are wide enough and capture enough detail. In the one below I had to crop out a lot that I could not clone back in from not lining up the images properly. (can be very finicky of a process)

Oh, that's better IMO than on APS-C: looks sharper and more pop out
