I've been shooting pretty much exclusively with primes of late, as all I own for the 645D is the 2.8/55 and an older manual 3.5/30

Some from the 55mm

I've only had the 30mm a short time so don't have a lot from this lens to show - it's an Arsat Zodiak 30mm rectangular fisheye.

How about pet + person? A shot from my Single in June album featuring the DA 35mm Macro Ltd.

Warped, all I can say about these portraits is wow! They are amazing works of art, with stunning detail, texture - to perfection. All of them. The rectangular fish-eye shots are striking as well.

Fantastic stuff, thanks for sharing mate.

Here are some of mine:

Tamron SP 90mm (Adaptall)

Leica Elmarit-R 28mm (V1) - not the greatest for portraits but I love this shot anyway.

Petri 55mm F1.8 (M42)

No one was around at the house today for portraits and I had no way of getting around town, so the dog was my fill-in subject.

SMC M50mm f/1.7

This is just a snapshot taken with my nothing-special 50 mm. Working on manual focusing and I think it finally came together with this shot and several others!

Great shot Sonata! Thanks for sharing!
