You bought used camera? Weird if you bought your camera with this lens then.

Bad news, there is no way to turn non built-in af lens to auto focus in lower end Nikon body. This is what I don't like the most for Nikon's marketing plan, hard to find Tokina wide angle with built-in motor. And the first hand Tokina cost my half of my allowance for a semester.

Sell the lens, and get a new one with af motor.

Who here enjoys Jared Polin's review? I watch his videos just because of his english language tongue.gif

Anyway, here the 58mm 1.4 comparison with NOCT.

My second photo spam contribution on this thread.

I purposely boost the colour saturation to let the colours show out.

Nice one, colourful. If in post-processing, I might make the lollipops (really?) in colour but other than those in black and white. I love post-process! tongue.gif

let's make a price guessing game for nikon DF tongue.gif

in MYR

pool A : 4k - 5k
pool B : 5k - 6k
pool C : 6k - 7k
pool D : 7k - 8k
pool E : 8k onward

Pool result

B (1) : gerald7
C (0) :

I'll go for Pool E, because I think the body build would be premium.

Pool C for me, and for a 1699 dollar lens, the noct sure is soft at 1.4 lol

Sigma 50mm 1.4 all the way~ laugh.gif

Thought so, these days Nikon seems to be all about business. Pressure from competition especially from Canon and other mirrorless monsters I guess tongue.gif

QUOTE(exquisite_markas @ Nov 5 2013, 10:48 AM)
If you let me choose, I would prefer taking photos at the countryside and at kampungs. I just like the "classic" feel it gives to the photos.

Like your photos above. Great shot man!  thumbup.gif

-edit-
The first photo, I just feel that it is a tiny bit underexposed. And the smudged spot on the center left of the first photo, is that dust?
*
Where is it exactly ya? If it's black spot then it is the dust. HDR seems to emphasize the dust on your sensor and I'm too lazy to pixel peep. sweat.gif

I think the first one underexposed too afterward. I increased the exposure a bit but it still looks weird. laugh.gif

Same thing happens to me. Always have a lot of facepalm when at home viewing the pictures in the computer. tongue.gif

Does cleaning sensor in the menu really works? Is there any other way to clean sensor without the blower?

It's not really a black spot. It's some translucent spot just on the left of the electric tower.
*
Oh, that was the flaring of the sun. Dust usually the black spots. Other than that, if it's somekind of blurry spot in an area, that would be lens fungus I think.

QUOTE(exquisite_markas @ Nov 5 2013, 12:32 PM)
Most of my facepalm moments happen on the focus. Most often, I don't really get the right focus on the place I wanted. Sometimes, the whole photo goes out of focus, but I am dead sure it was focused the moment I snapped.  rclxub.gif

That's why I don't seem to get the confident to use the AF 70-300mm lens on my D5100. cry.gif
*
Mine usually composition and noises. Does the focus beeped when you're shooting? Sometimes live view focus helps too. I tried to do focus on live view most of the time when using manual focus, but renders difficult when there's too much light outdoor.

QUOTE(exquisite_markas @ Nov 5 2013, 12:34 PM)
I think it works to some extent. From what I know, it has an electronically controlled vibration system which shakes off the dust. But bigger and heavier dusts have to be removed by physical means, e.g. by the use of a blower.
*
Thanks, kinda suspicious because it seems not doing anything. If in Canon, there'll be a flick on the mirror.

Fixed the exposure.

Where do you live? you can get good view of sunset/sunrise near mountains or hill, or near coastal horizon. City, I'm not sure, perhaps need to be on rooftops. tongue.gif

No touch up, these kind of sun rays are pretty common in forests I think, the trick is to get up early lol XD
Same here, not much sunrise or sunset shots in PJ/KL  sad.gif

I'm sure you can get red-ish sunset in PJ. I never did any shots there, but I've seen some pictures of early sunset in PJ near a lake if I remember it correctly. Just need to get correct timing I guess icon_rolleyes.gif

Trying street photo. Old stock, Jpeg edited in Lightroom, turned to monochrome.
