In the spotlight (external link) by hyo:foto (external link), on Flickr

accidental spotlight...playing around with my new 420ex flash. I was pretty close to the tree. Makes me want to experiment with DIY grids or something like honl speed grids.

come to think of it, the pop-up flash with this lens creates a pretty cool spotlight effect as well (due to the built in hood, I think).

I have the regular version for Nikon. Yes, the focus scale was way off, but it's not that hard to adjust it your self, I did that.

There are 3 set screws in the front under the rubber band on the focusing ring. Focus on something distant, unscrew those set screws (maybe there was another screws there also, if so, don't touch them) and the focus ring will be free so you can set it to inifnity and fix it there.

The lens will work if the focus scale is wrong, but as it then can focus way past infinity, you miss the near focus.
