Totally out  laugh.gif

Like I said, if sometimes OOF sometimes sharp its most likely not back/front focus. Cause back/front focus is constant.

If it is random, most likely due to body or lens capability already.

ya bro.. I think I need to calibrate it.
the problem is sometimes I shoot in 1/100s ++ still OOF. sweat.gif
eh bro.. meaning my sigmalux is not compactible with my body? shocking.gif

As the name implies, its micro adjustment, even if hiscamera body has the funcgtion, if the lens front/backfocus a lot, the 'micro'  adjustment up tp +20/-20 won't be of any help, plus, usually we want to fix the problem than using AF Fine Tune. If someone wish to sell in future, its better that its fixed.
It's off. And the picture is under? or did you PP and add contrast?
The previous picture of this girl, I think you add too much contrast? did you PP?

Booom is good, but it will affect the skin tones and noise/grain.  tongue.gif

and who cares about under. exposure is where you have to play. you don't have to get the correct exposure every time what?
for food I prefer over expose. why would you stick in the correct exposure?
I didn't pp this one sweat.gif


QUOTE(Andy214 @ May 6 2011, 10:20 AM)
actually, if given pictures taken by different nifty fifties, can you differentiate which pictures bokeh is taken with which nifty fifty?

Anyway, the pice can be a huge difference between the cheapest fifty and the most expensive fifty.

The subject 'might' care (and I personally care if I shoot people), especially its a girl and she IF she has fair skin. Under will makes the skin darker or BBQ. I'm not saying its right or wrong, there's no right or wrong, as long as YOU like it or if you're shooting for your client, your client likes it.
If your're shooting for someone, you need to make sure your photo satsify them, most people want clear and correctly exposed or brighter photos. And some older people, doesn't know or care bokeh, you give them the picture, they tell you 'whats all this blur one???', bad photographer, change change! So, its all about preference and who the photo is meant for.

I'm just sharing my opinion and asking you is it under cause i feel the skin tones is dark, but I haven't seen the real person, so I don't know how she look like in real person? Is she that dark?
*
err.. when I was shooting that it wasn't for shooting purpose yet testing purpose bro as I shooting after I bought it. smile.gif
that is the reason I am using 1.4 the shallowest I could have and focus on the eye. laugh.gif
it is not that I care bokeh the most. I did shoot with f8-12 as well smile.gif
no intention of having it as my master piece just yet.

Another reason I highlight on the skin tones is because the picture just before aldos, the picture is bright and skin tones looks great, but suddenly, you scroll down to the next post with picture, you see the big difference.
Again, no wrong or right and I didn't mentioned anything about wrong or right, my question was simply out of curiosity, 'is it under?', and also about contrast since I'm curious.

Nono, I'm not talking about you caring for bokeh when I give the example of elderly wanting clear, sharp photos. I'm just giving example that there is no right or wrong, it depends on the person the picture is meant for. If the person loves bokeh, then of course you try to give a good bokeh shot, but if the person likes clear sharp photos, then bokeh is useless. Don't misunderstand my post, try to get what I'm trying to convey tand share to you, I'm just trying to say I never say there is right or wrong, or rules in photography.

Whether you're testing or simply shoot, I'm not and I did NOT say you do wrong..... I was asking is it under? and asking is it you add contrast and share my opinion on adding too much contrast. I did not say you are wrong or right...... cool bro... notworthy.gif

okay bro.. advice taken. smile.gif
will do better shoot next time

how can u be patient on event like wedding? well i just be prepared instead of be patient.
I agree with your point bro.

I don't know why people saying a bad thing about tamron 17-50 2.8 tongue.gif
I think it is the best bargain you could get in around 1k type of lens.
and I saw some people who did wedding weekly can survive with tamron 17-50 2.8 and his old flash light (in film camera era)
he got paid weekly lor..
don't believe in me? you can ask bro cik tak tongue.gif hahahaha..
well I believe he did paid job more than most of us in this nikon thread tongue.gif
if he can survive why we not?
some more it's AF is faster than kit lens 18-55.
I saw a lot of people did marvellous job with 18-55 even for wedding.
isn't that like a challenge itself?

Hahaha.. I myself is not a hardcore editor. I am learning because watching jared's video.
I just don't know why people can judge my photo where my intention is showing the focusing problem only. unsure.gif
maybe some people prefer to test on those focusing chart instead of real life situation tongue.gif
I think I kena belajar PP nih bro.. rclxub.gif


for those who feel my image above is under expose I am sorry.
I will try make it over next time and see how it goes. notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

85mm f1/8?

their current price aren't that much different right?

I believe nobody said the tammy cannot be used, but it has its weakness, every lens has. I don't mind admitting a weakness, rather than cheating myself. just like the 3tmm f1.8, it's not a super lens, it has few  weakness, but for its price, its good, just like the tammy.
Also, like the 50mm f/1.8, for the price? it's a great lens.

As for the photo, nobody is saying how bad you are for shooting under, firstly, my post was asking a Question:
is it under?
I wonder if you qualify a question as saying you did a mistale or you did wrong. and I think you're over sensitive and carried away. even if you shoot under, there's nothing wrong, why get over sensitive about it, the way I see it, it's actually good that many people shared their views and discussion, people are not critisizing you in negative way, they're showing good informationa and sharing, I think its more important to appreciate and learn from it, unless you already know this. If not, I think it's important not to let ego be in the way of you for learning. Most people are not willing to admit and learn, which is the first step and hardest step to take.

But as I said, if you already know about the under expose and skin tones, t please ignore my post, but iI still think those information shared by others especially CY is very helpful and useful to anyonthat didn't know. And isepunye also shared a very good exmaple how adjusting the exposure and touchup can make a big difference. Personally, I appreciate their post and sharing.
*
maybe that is me. just my taste to play with cheapo lens. tongue.gif
yes it has weakness. I didn't say it has no weakness I said that lens is bread and butter for a guy named cik_tak.
why don't you just try it yourself. play around with that instead of complaining. smile.gif

and I don't say 35mm or 17-50mm is a super great lens.
I just somehow used those lens and I am a happy user of it. it's kind of positive feedback of a product. don't get me wrong okay.

nop nop.. I don't take your critique in negative way. don't get me wrong.
I said why would you critique about the overall of the photo where my intention is to show focusing problem. smile.gif
I am welcome to critique that is the initial reason for me to post picture. even I post picture more than you smile.gif
that clearly show I am open with critique. isn't that suppose to be like that?

Errmm.. now I know if my siggy having back focusing I did send for calibration.
and I did admit my picture is under. so can we settle this? tongue.gif
let's move on guys.
