European Tribune - Comments - Wednesday Photography Blog No. 5 [WITH UPDATE]

Wednesday Photography Blog No. 5 [WITH UPDATE] | 153 comments (153 topical, 0 editorial, 0 hidden)

I was happy to get several clear photos with the lens I had. I guess I was about 75 feet away and if I went to the 105mm it's very hard to take a shot without blurring.(No VR) And my lens will open up to only f3.5.
When I get my new 50mm I'll have to get up closer (that means arriving earlier) but I expect much better results.

Hey, Grandma Moses started late!

Re: Depth of Field (none / 1)

As Colman said further up, the 50mm is a lovely portrait lens. You can't zoom in or out with it which limits flexibility if you are stuck in one spot (ie you can't move forward or backwards to get more or less in the shot) but once you learn how to work with it, it is brilliant.

Ad astra per aspera
