Samples of the 85mm 1.8

Actually thinking on rokinon now. 1.4 might be what I'll look into if I can find it for cheap. If not I'll settle for the canon 1.8

Saw some really outstanding shots from those links.

Is it me or does it seem like there's a very minimal field of people that actually whiten the teeth of the subjects they shoot. Seems like on almost every portrait posted there, that's the one thing that's skipped on.

i actually have a few rokinon lenses(8mm f2.8 fisheye, 14mm f2.8, 24mm f1.4, & 85mm t1.5/f1.4), to my amateur eye they're all pretty sharp and as a brand seems to be well regarded as quality glass; especially at their pricepoint(s)...downsides are no exif data to camera (though there are nikon versions have a focus confirm chip in them), manual focusing, & most of the lenses focus past infinity

i just converted one of my old mirrorless joints into a dedicated infrared camera, relatively easy to do as there isn't a mirror mechanism to get around:

I see. Looks great man!

I found two listings on Craigslist for about 220. Maybe I can haggle down to 2 flat but I don't know. I definitely want to pick one up this weekend though.

Vsco Film for lightroom is amazing on raw images. Just dont use a different filter every image. Try to have some sort of design feel using a couple of the same presents. I never use grain though. I love Porta 160-800 and Kodak Ultramax 400-800

this hundreds blog. lol these filters are horrible and ruin most the images. not only that, the images all look so different because of how they were edited they look like ****. mix and matched together. imagine putting that in  a photo book or print, how stupid it would look. Dont do this!

Whenever I use them I turn grain off. I understand it's to emulate film grain but I didn't spend all that money on equipment to have crisp images to then add grain on top of them.

I went ahead and got them as well. I love them! I'll post some samples later

I have one. Wasn't out with the intention of shooting outside a gig. I don't mind the glare though.

Nice! Just got it, haven't even got a chance to take it out. I'm still plotting on a 135L. There are 2 local for less than $750.

Haven't posted in a while, especially since I spent the last couple of weeks in Mexico unexpectedly. Wasn't vacation or anything but I had my camera. I'll probably spread them out in different posts. Here are some of my favorites:

Thanks!

I visited Guadalajara, Jalisco for about 6 days then went to my grandparents ranch about an hour away for 6 more days.

The scenery was beautiful. I wish I had my 35mm with me but oh well.

Damn.....that sling on the left is mine.

Do it! I love the 135L! One of my favorite prime lenses and fairly affordable compared to most L lenses.
