I use old manual focus lenses for almost all my photos. I would rather have the 50 1.4AF than my 50 2 MF though, any day. But the difference in IQ/ease of use isn't worth the cost, to me.

If I were you I'd sell the 1.4 and make a tidy profit on what you paid for it, or sell me the 1.7!

Very nice shots! Particularly like the team shot, and no. 4.

What a belter Simon! Superb dramatic sky, bold composition, and a sublime view over the Vale of Evesham. I have lived 20 mins drive from this spot for about 8 years, but have never been there!

Cheers! I used a 50mm/f2 btw... forgot to mention.

Looks good to me (couldn't see the image above but managed to click onto the flickr page).

It sounds like the Tammy is a better bet than the DA 55-300 then - with the added bonus of FF. I'll make a mental note of that.

Thanks for your quick run down of the lenses.

Nice sharp shots! Its the last one for me, as the background is less distracting. Maybe clone out that stool, top right corner.

I wonder if black and white would suit it, as most of the interest is in the monochrome details of the feathers.

My Grandma's 80th birthday gave me the opportunity to take some candid shots of my family. First time I've used the Samsung flash gun seriously, and I'm quite pleased with the results. I tried to give the shots a bright, fresh look in post processing, and used a gaussian blur layer to add a subtle flattering glow to the shots of my Grandma and cousins.

C&C welcome!

That's the same lens yes...BUY IT!!!!!! It will fit your k-m.

Sorry to go off topic, but I notice a fair bit of duplication in your lens line up, Bob. 50-135, 55-30, 70-300. What important qualities do the 50-135 and the 70-300 Tammy bring that the 55-300 doesn't offer?

Lol! Well done George. With a sense of humour, a bit of grumpiness is definitely forgivable.
