Hi Thoth, normally you shoot at what aperture ?
I tried on nikon 50mm f1.2, fully wide open is very hard to get focus ..

Buy a Nikon 50mm AI F2, its much easier, only fraction of a price at $100 secondhand and also super sharp from fully open at f2 onwards. And this lens is even sharper than a 50mm AIS f1.8 at f2.

A lot of lenses at f/2 r really sharp n some even gives very pleasing bokeh. Jupiter lenses for example can b acquired at sub 100 range.
 


Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.2
 

Nice shot Thoth. I like the serious look in her eyes & her pouty lips.

Hmm I have never shot a cosplay before, I wonder whats it is like?

Normally the cosplayer would act as the character they r cosing, so u just work with them to get the expression, posture they want.
 

An interesting recent review of the Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.2 lens mounted on the 5DM3. For those who r interested to find out more about this lens...

More poison to come ...

Thoth you like cosplay ? most of your picture are cosplay. Never shoot cosplay before too, everytime at STGCC , there is alot Pro taking their photo, there is no chance for small camera LOL
Normally you ask them how to pose or they just pose for you ?

Thinking to bring camera for coming STGCC.

Usually at events, they will pose their usual character's pose but if given an opportunity to ask them aside for some solo shoots, U could also courteously ask them for some poses U prefer.

U R gg to STGCC? Seeya there then. U can try my Rokkor and Lux if U want at the event too. Cheers.

Still a pretty good lens for the price. Difference with Rokkor not much especially on web unless go into full res
