I have a 7d and sadly, have had to use a cell phone because of the weight. I feel like I can achieve the blurred look with a photoshop filter and fine tune it better...I'm really slow with manual focus. Your photos are beautiful....you'll get the hang of it quickly!

It has the drop-in aperture discs, a bit of a pain. I haven't used it in a while. Your images have me thinking I need to give it another try. I have been eyeing a few photography workshop/retreats, but haven't found one that seems right for me. I hope you enjoy your photography conference, and let us know how it goes. :)Michelle Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00851453933697842657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-71889052936323508002017-05-01T18:17:36.735-04:002017-05-01T18:17:36.735-04:00I am intrigued.

Well, now I know they are a manual focus and you need to set the aperture, ha! It will be interesting to see what more you learn about it and if you like it. Sounds like a fun thing to explore.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738013703083011762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-63150065638363906232017-05-01T14:38:19.606-04:002017-05-01T14:38:19.606-04:00Looks as if you are getting the hang of this lens ...Looks as if you are getting the hang of this lens baby. I have one too and it is a very interesting addition to photography. I am hardly using mine, but you are inspiring me to get it out again! Sounds as if your upcoming trip is going to be fun! We are going soon too, starting at Macinac island and they up and around lake superior.

I am glad you have it on your camera, and are enjoying it. With a small enough aperture, it behaves pretty much like a "normal" 50mm. It also takes some wonderful macros too. Have fun with it, and enjoy your trip!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02574946867709812195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-55780370979980088372017-04-30T17:24:35.924-04:002017-04-30T17:24:35.924-04:00Thanks for your insight, I'm now looking for a...Thanks for your insight, I'm now looking for a camera and I didn't know that there are ones that you set manually.
