The DA* 16-50 is a lovely lens but can be let down by failing or slow sdm. My copy never failed but would often require "warming-up" when first placed on the camera. i had to manually focus at both extremes, then get the camera to AF. After that it worked fine until the next time.

It was not fast focussing by any stretch of the imagination so I would expect the screw drive conversion to be an improvement

Nicely captured and lit.

Absolutely superb portrait. The lighting and colours really work well in this.

I often favour a b+w picture especially portraits but in this case the colour wins hands down for me.

I can see the attraction of these. I like 5 and 7. Printed up large they would look really good.

But my dilemma is that ICM can produce a picture which is essentially abstract and could be produced by from scratch by a software program.

The jury is still out with me on this genre, but as I have said on other topics in a similar vein, without experimentation , art will not advance. So top marks for trying something new.

Yet again the monochromes are the winners for me.

I'm prepared to hand control of certain aspects over to the camera. I suspect many do already when using semi automatic modes such as Av/TV/TAv etc, whereby I'm letting the camera control the exposure based on it's reading at a specific time.

Well that is only true to a degree. I use Av and TAv a lot, but don't feel i am handing exposure control over to the camera entirely. When in these modes my first few shots are always viewed with the histogram and any compensation if needed is then dialed in.

Yep last one gets my vote too. B+W is so dramatic.
