Course if you have a cell, you could always just look at the default screen!

Sometimes, when I'm feeling depressed in one of our extended North Atlantic springs, I'll go out and take pictures like this of litter slowly emerging from the snow. It doesn't help my mood in the least but it certainly expresses it!
Here, though are somewhat happier ones...

SMC 40mm Ltd, f18, 1/20sec, ISO 100 makes for a dreamy swan. Very cold (20s F), very blustery, extremely bright low angle sun...

The 70mm is really nice on the trail under the trees. Seems not to mind the mottled light and dark at all and renders plants very nicely... (I've posted this before, but it shows what I mean)
I like its bokeh in that situation as well.

Re. your first pic ("flare"): Try your 40mm at golden hour. I think you'll like it. My SMC version does wonderfully.

"Serendipity" and "luck" come very preferentially to those out there actually doing something.
Odd how that works!

Spring hike up Butterpot Mountain, Conception Bay, NL. SMC 70mm. Under dense evergreen cover which adds to bokeh, I think.

NO WAY to produce such an incredible image with such "old" equipment!!!

Anyway...I think that this lens might have possibilities! Just lookin' around the living room found this subject. I do like how the lens renders this scene. handheld, LED 100W equivalent, warm white lamp.
I think the lens might even work well for a nonportrait person like me. Or maybe I should start learning to deal with people???
(Print is much sharper at full res.)
f8, 1/8 sec, ISO1600
f2.4, 1/100 sec. ISO 1600

Never thought of myself as one of those "hoity-toity" Limited shooters, but somehow I now have 2 of the 3 (DA, APSC) amigos: 40mm and 70mm. Have posted a number of 40mm shots over the years as I've had that lens for a while. LOVE it at golden hour. It renders colours then beautifully. Just now got my DA 70 mm off of Marketplace. Is this the forum to use for posting pics/discussing, or is there a 70mm club? If there is I cannot find it. I am MUCH more of a landscape/outdoor handheld subjects shooter rather than a studio/model-in-the-flower-garden-portrait/wedding type.

I love how the 40mm renders sun, water, clouds, etc. around the sea.
I've posted this before but here's another example...

In possibly the most silly and unnecessary application of the 40mm Ltd's capabilities, I have been making natural roomlight animated .gif's for my beloved Horned Frog's football games to post on thefroghorn.com. K70. The FOV from my tripod to the sidetable "stage" turns out to be perfect. This week's game is against the Iowa State Cyclones.

Just bought a DA 40mm Ltd. on marketplace mainly because of a very good price. I am already finding it much more valuable than I thought it would be...
Walk in the park:
Late afternoon sail...
 
I very much look forward to using it at dawn/dusk instead of bright afternoon sun.
