everything (aside from "dylan's first year") on my site was shot with the lens kit

Noob question:

When people are talking about "stepping the lens down", what are you refering to?

On my 17-85, i stop down to around f/8, on my 70-200 2.8, it is sharpest around f/5.6, so play with your settings, and look at the pic when zoomed in 100%, and see where it is sharpest.

Then, using that slower aperture is called stopping down

Not really a shot that showcases the technical prowess of the kit lens, but I thought it nicely whimsical (and I'm too lazy to sift through my site for something better :lol: ):

nismosr is a tough act to follow! :D

I've been keeping this building in the back of my mind for some time, & the sky co-operated one evening when I only had the Kit lens with me & about 5 minutes of light left to shoot it.
My tripod was home, too.
I helped the 2nd one out with PS. ;)

A garden spider off the back deck. I took her photo a little over a year ago.
