I haven't been here, long enough, to know or, or hear about, the old couple. What part of Florida...as there aren't many old, old timers here in Jax. ;)

You've never heard of Snowbirds? All the oldies from Quebec and Ontario winter in Florida.

Nice POV and exposure.

Looks like the Red Baron Squadron (?)

Damn shame they ceased operation.

Gud pm ladies and gents, im sitting at the classroom right now and it just came it to my mind. For those who have both lens 50 1.4 and 85 1.8 what lens is more perfect in terms of IQ using 5D. Any evidence is much appreciated(photos).

Nice stuff there, Geno!



I typically desaturate the purple channel a bit in Lightroom and it helps a lot, although if the contrast in the bordering color is high you may need to get more elaborate. But with your white bordering blue I wouldn't think it would be that bad, so play around with that technique.

Desaturation brush makes it perfect though if you're pretty quick with a pen tablet.

My 5D is in for service, life sucks right now! I am getting my sensor cleaned and a cratch in the focus screen fixed. Fun stuff, good shots everyone.

I thought everyone was full of it but I have a hard time using my 40D since buying the 5D.

Nice shots, Michael. Is the butterfly a form of a hairstreak? lovely flowers, too. ;)

Gabe, sucks to hear, but, hopefully, it'll come back with 'all' the fixes, including the mirror fix. They do a pretty thorough job, on cleaning them...so, that's always a good thing. Hope the wait isn't too long. ;)

Ben...per Perry, the bokeh on the 50 1.4 isn't all that great...so, were I to choose, I'd go the route of the 85 1.8. Otherwise, Soren is going to let us borrow his 50L, when we all visit Denmark! :lol: ;)

Very nice to have that 50L. For the moment, since my 100 macro will arrive tomorrow, i will hold the trigger for 50 1.4 and we'll see how impressive this macro is.=)

50 1.4 and 85 1.8 are both great on the 5D, bokeh is better on the 85 tho. None of them can touch the 100 macro when it comes to sharpness.

My 85 1.8 shots (external link)

Some are 40D, some are 5D. EXIF intact on all, so Flickr tells you which is which.

The 50L just keeps rocking my world. My Mate JP popped by last night to show off the nice sunburn you get from 7 hours of kayaking:

F/1.8. The bokeh from this lens is just plain stunning.
