NorioDS So Tanya finally got a hold of my Ibby. Check it out: http://s246.photobucket.com/albums/gg83/TanyaRudman/Close%20Up%20Macro/
MikeM Spyke wrote EOS 400D and CS3... More the lens ? By the looks of the depth of field, it could be one of them 70-300 macros
Spyke Last pic: 1/160" exposure on a 400iso F1.79 No flash first pic: 1/100" on a 1600iso F1.79 No flash both shot in sRGB no signature for the lens, my guess is a std 18-55
MikeM Yea, I asked because it wasn't listed in the exif data. I'd be shocked if that's the kit lens ?
NorioDS DEFINITELY not a kit lens. She uses a film macro lens on her digital body but I don't have the specs on that lens. She's actually getting WAY better quality from her film lenses than her digital ones. It's pretty nifty coz you can pick them up for a coupla hundred bucks each. If you're into photography, MikeM, check out www.photoclub.co.za. She's on there and so are a coupla other peeps. They have weekly & monthly challenges, photography excursions (one coming up this weekend, I think!) and other cool stuff.
MikeM Aaah ? I see, very interesting! Thanks man ? I'll def check it out. Used to do it for some extra cash. Strangely, my one friend used to own www.photo-club.co.za but dunno what's happened to it since :/ Thanks again ?
NorioDS Fritz, depends on how much you can afford for the shoot ? MikeM, the lens is a 50mm Macro-Takumar 1:4 goodie ? She loves it and, actually, so do I. Although I can't use it. It doesn't auto-focus ? ? ?
MikeM Thanks Norio ? Manual focus ftw. One tip man, set it to shortest distance and just move your body ?
