New Lens
Well, I’ve not bought a new lens for donkeys, so I thought I would go and get a basic 50mm prime, the F1.8 D Nikon. Really glad I did too, it’s such an easy quick lens to use, I’ve found it to be exceptionally sharp so far and great fun to play around with the kind of depth of field it’s capable of.
I took this while out and about on my old bike near Calke Abbey just as a test really. Looking forward to using it this weekend if I can get over to a Tudor mansion I have been meaning to visit for a while.
I took this to just play with the depth of field and see how the light reflecting on the water would look in the bokeh.
I also found a great write up on it on the Ken Rockwell site, if anyone reading this is interested in getting a 50mm prime for their Nikon.
