Care to explain?

If you are looking for sharpness, nothing beats a true macro lens.

Here is a 100% crop from a macro lens at ~1:1.

 

[snowbrigade]

Will work my way towards that. Have to get my composition right first.

True macro....hmmm I tot in that case, micro lenses are even sharper.

 

[snowbrigade]

Oh yeah. Where can i get this lens since CP ran out of stock? And roughly whats the price for it? thanks

prices: MS 175, CP 180, John 1:36 185, Havey Norman 189......

yeah, this lens is hot, it took me about 2 weeks to find one set and i get it from John3:16, and know what it the last piece. Like everyone have said the len is cheap and good. Value for money.

mm... how often do you guys shoot at 50mm on your kit lens wide open?

So often meh? for me I also placed my order mainly because it is so cheap. But the kit lens can do most of the stuff the 50mm can do. For indoor shots I got my SB600

I use it more than the kit lens ... 40% of the time it is on my cam.

What is the street price for 50mm F1.4 & reverse ring mount?

 

[snowbrigade]

If doing MO must inform me okay?

 

[rvxing]

I was quote $440 incl GST for 50mm F1.4. Anyone know of better price?

 

[wind30]

where is this quote from?

 

[wayne_sui]

for 50/1.4D one, can get $425 bah? (if i didn't remember wrongly)

What is the street price for 50mm F1.4 & reverse ring mount?

not sure if this was your intention, but i would advise against buying the 50f1.4 for reverse ring shooting... at 1.8 the focus plan is already very thin!! but the 50f1.4 is great for portrait shooting!! :thumbsup:

IIRC (approx prices)
50f1.4 $420-$460 (grey vs warranty)
50f1.8 $170-$180 (grey vs warranty)
BR2a $26-$28 (reverse ring adaptor, front of lense -> adaptor -> cam)
BR3 $36-$38 (mount for rear element, filter -> adaptor -> rear of lense)
