QUOTE(finejava @ Jan 22 2010, 01:54 PM) Gouki: IMHO, i would go for a sharp lens 1st then only DOF...good sharp lens is hard to find...as for DOF you can PP it with photoshop... even though i got myself constant 1.8 & 2.8...but i'll usually do my shoots at F4...as that is the optimum level whereby the lens best perform... my 2 cents p.s: my CZ just only sold to destfull... my a700...ehm...waiting for FF replacement model...  hmmm~ according to ieR bro mentioned, seems the Tamron is sharp enough for my casual use even at f2.8 lar~ but i know the CZ1680 is damn sharp~ but the extra 800bux~ i tot plan to match it with the a700 replacement few months down road in package~  QUOTE(The Wonder @ Jan 22 2010, 01:57 PM) Lol... I oso got one very similar 80mm F4.5 @ 1/160. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « wah~ poison~~~~  |

QUOTE(kysham @ Jan 21 2010, 10:49 PM) noellee69: All filters will decrease the IQ. It is just a matter how how badly it decreases the IQ. Good filters, like those from B+W, Hoya (btw, Hoya have a few grades of filters. the better ones are the Pro1D and the new HD series) and Sony's CZ filters tends to degrade the IQ far less compared to cheaper filters. may i know what is IQ means? |

 Zeiss 135mm F1.8!  Shallow. Note that the guitar and face are in about the same plane of focus.  ISO3200, redone with DxO Optics Pro Elite. Note the bokeh has undergone channel-specific variable Gaussian blurring i.e. my STF attempt. finejava: Except the A900/A850. If the A900/A850 had more obvious APS-C markings, or was able to mask off the FF region, it would make the 16-80mm much more usable on it. Right now it is a pain to frame any APS-C lens on the A900. Eh, your 50mm F1.4 would be real nice on FF! lwliam: Yeah notice the bricks? You could rotate the horizon slightly and crop a 3:2 shot from this. cjlai, somebody has posted how to add the focus confirm chip to the Opteka 85mm F1.4!
