Ooo... happy fingering bro... thumbs up! :bsmilie:

PS. Strange enough I really don't know how to shoot black and white even converting my pix to B&W I find it strange looking when I do direct conversion from color to b&w e.g. using LR. Any bro cares to share the technique?

Most B&W shooter utilizes Silver eFex plugin into LR to convert to B&W. There's quite a number of customization U can do wif it. Go try

I have read that review before prior to buying the Canon 50/1.4 LTM. Haha... Just really spoilt by the Rokkor 58/1.2's Bokeh... Anyway, no buyer yet, relax and enjoy shooting wif my Canon 50/1.4 LTM first. A great lens, quite Bokehlicious (reminds me of the DigitalRev t shirt I just bought), very sharp and quite compact for a 50mm.

Excerpts from camera quest on this lens: "50/1.4 Canon: one of the best classic 50/1.4's in LTM. Black only. Some people say the best classic 50/1.4"

Went thru before, bro... Although the MD 50/1.2 is modeled after the MC 58/1.2, it just doesnt have that punch... D Bokeh of the MC 58/1.2 is just top notch, possibly only to be surpassed by the Nocs...
 

New a7 user here, after reading thru the whole manual, still cant find how to digitally zoom to check focus if using manual focus lens. Please help. Thx

Speaking of the manual, it must rank as the worst product manual I've ever seen.....
and why are the manuals for the other languages much thicker than the english one..... the english one is sorely lacking man..
