These are not the best but they are my favorites from this lens. (Low light no flash shots.)

Hi. Thank you all for these amazing pictures. It seems outstanding that superb portraits, landscapes and close-ups could all be achieved with one little inexpensive lens. Those portraits are excellent and I like farmdog fan's landscape. His big boy lens must have cost a fortune unlike the 50mm.

Static Thought even though you signed as Chris I really hoped that was a picture of you for your avatar. (Ex-forces engineer... I'm guessing Christopher and not Christine?). What a disappointment. :lol:

and... that kid is cute.. a real heart breaker in the making.
and... turbodude we're all waiting.
Please keep them coming.
Guess what... I had to go and buy one :oops:
I'll post as soon as I can.

Okay... just opened the box, screwed on the lens and in between the rain I have taken a few shots.
Early days yet but I can see why this little lens is a firm favourite.

I've had the opportunity to play with the lens (I have the f/1.4 version, but had Nifty for a while on his travels).

Optically and IQ wise, the f/1.8 is a very fine lens indeed, as can be seen by this and the official archive.

However, what does mark it down slightly is the build quality. It's very light, rattles slightly when you sake it, and feels like a kids toy (it even whirrs when you focus).

That's the only thing against it that I can see.

Heh! Pete. Thanks for that. Glad you could contact the Un-Official Archive :lol:

and... I see someone has combined these post now. Don't think that will keep us down for 1 minute. LOL

The great pics just keep on coming. I've had mine for a few hours now but the rain and thunder storms just keep on coming so can't get out there as yet. eryk showed us his 'studio type' shot.... any others from anyone?
