Hi Peter,

a good clean crisp shot. Good choice of nice neutral background but with the gaps in the slats adding to the overall without detracting from the main ingredients.. of the image.

Cheers

Liam

Thank you for your comments. The subject matter is now no more, having been mixed with monkfish and prawns in a paella.

Crackin' shot, just makes me want to start cooking, so real, so crisp....Oh, it's just making me want to get a 50mm all the more now, don't think I cant wait till birthday!
Can anyone confirm if the 1.4 50mm SMC AF will be as so damn sharp as the 1.7?

Super shot Peter, the lighting is spot on and the detail is crystal clear.

by reputation (I've not used one) it will be better. Only supposed disadvantage is the F1.7 has a flatter field and is therefore a better choice for macro.
you don't have to be mad to post here



but it does help

The f1.4 has a different character to the f1.7. It is more contrasty and may well appear sharper, but may not have the same degree of resolution.

Overall though both lenses are as good as you could wish to get.
Best regards, John

I keep coming back to this thread thinking of something witty to say about the sharpness of the lemons but for once the wit escapes me

I'll just have to content myself with agreeing with previous replys

Nice image peter, but I would suggest cropping less tight, it seems too cramped on each side. Maybe it's the heavy border that's doing it.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I will try some more shots in the same style and experiment with the framing and borders.
